Proverbs 13:6

Proverbs 13:6 The Message (MSG)

A God-loyal life keeps you on track; sin dumps the wicked in the ditch.

Righteousness keepeth him that is upright in the way: But wickedness overthroweth the sinner.

Righteousness guards the one whose way is blameless, But wickedness subverts the sinner.

Doing what is right protects the honest person, but doing evil ruins the sinner.

Righteousness guardeth him that is upright in the way; But wickedness overthroweth the sinner.

Righteousness guards the person of integrity, but wickedness overthrows the sinner.

Righteousness guards him whose way is blameless, But wickedness overthrows the sinner.

Righteousness (being in right standing with God) guards the one whose way is blameless, But wickedness undermines and overthrows the sinner.

Godliness guards the path of the blameless, but the evil are misled by sin.

Righteousness is like a shield of protection, guarding those who keep their integrity, but sin is the downfall of the wicked.

Righteousness guards him whose way is blameless, but sin overthrows the wicked.
