Proverbs 11:19 BBE

¹⁷  The man who has mercy will be rewarded, but the cruel man is the cause of trouble to himself.

¹⁸  The sinner gets the payment of deceit; but his reward is certain who puts in the seed of righteousness.

¹⁹  So righteousness gives life; but he who goes after evil gets death for himself.

²⁰  The uncontrolled are hated by the Lord, but those whose ways are without error are his delight

²¹  Certainly the evil-doer will not go free from punishment, but the seed of the upright man will be safe.
