Proverbs 11:17-23
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 11
17
A merciful person does himself
good,
But the cruel person does himself harm.
18
A wicked person earns deceptive wages,
But one who sows righteousness
gets
a true reward.
19
One who is steadfast in righteousness
attains
life,
But one who pursues evil
attains
his own death.
20
The perverse in heart are an abomination to the
Lord
,
But the blameless in
their
walk are His delight.
21
Be assured, the evil person will not go unpunished,
But the descendants of the righteous will be rescued.
22
As
a ring of gold in a pig’s snout
So is
a beautiful woman who lacks discretion.
23
The desire of the righteous is only good,
But
the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
King James Version
Chapter 11
17
The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.
18
The wicked worketh a deceitful work: but to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward.
19
As righteousness tendeth to life: so he that pursueth evil pursueth it to his own death.
20
They that are of a froward heart are abomination to the
Lord
: but such as are upright in their way are his delight.
21
Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.
22
As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.
23
The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 11
17
A kind man benefits himself,
but a cruel person brings ruin on himself.
18
The wicked person earns an empty wage,
but the one who sows righteousness, a true reward.
19
Genuine righteousness leads to life,
but pursuing evil leads to death.
20
Those with twisted minds are detestable to the
Lord
,
but those with blameless conduct are his delight.
21
Be assured that a wicked person
will not go unpunished,
but the offspring of the righteous will escape.
22
A beautiful woman who rejects good sense
is like a gold ring in a pig’s snout.
23
The desire of the righteous turns out well,
but the hope of the wicked leads to wrath.

Lord

The godly can look forward to a reward,
while the wicked can expect only judgment.
