Proverbs 12:6-8

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁶ The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood,
but the mouths of the upright will save them.
⁷ Wicked people are overthrown, and they are no more,
but the house of the righteous continues to stand.
⁸ A person is praised for the good sense that he speaks,
but a person with a twisted heart will be despised.
