¹⁹ He who is truly righteous gets life. He who pursues evil gets death.

²³ The fear of Yahweh leads to life, then contentment; He rests and will not be touched by trouble.

¹⁶ The labor of the righteous leads to life. The increase of the wicked leads to sin.

²⁸ In the way of righteousness is life; In its path there is no death.

¹⁰ In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the devil. Whoever doesn't do righteousness is not of God, neither is he who doesn't love his brother.

⁷ Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

²³ For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

⁸ but to those who are self-seeking, and don't obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath and indignation,

⁹ oppression and anguish, on every soul of man who works evil, on the Jew first, and also on the Greek.

³⁵ but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.

⁴ Riches don't profit in the day of wrath, But righteousness delivers from death.

³⁶ But he who sins against me wrongs his own soul. All those who hate me love death."

²² He followed her immediately, As an ox goes to the slaughter, As a fool stepping into a noose.

²³ Until an arrow strikes through his liver, As a bird hurries to the snare, And doesn't know that it will cost his life.

¹⁶ For their feet run to evil. They hurry to shed blood.

¹⁷ For in vain is the net spread in the sight of any bird:

¹⁸ But these lay wait for their own blood. They lurk secretly for their own lives.

¹⁹ So are the ways of everyone who is greedy for gain. It takes away the life of its owners.
