Proverbs 11:19

Proverbs 11:19 English Standard Version 2016 (ESV)

Whoever is steadfast in righteousness will live, but he who pursues evil will die.

Take your stand with God’s loyal community and live, or chase after phantoms of evil and die.

As righteousness tendeth to life: So he that pursueth evil pursueth it to his own death.

He who is steadfast in righteousness will attain to life, And he who pursues evil will bring about his own death.

Those who are truly good will live, but those who chase after evil will die.

He that is stedfast in righteousness shall attain unto life; And he that pursueth evil doeth it to his own death.

Truly the righteous attain life, but whoever pursues evil finds death.

As righteousness leads to life, So he who pursues evil pursues it to his own death.

He who is steadfast in righteousness attains life, But he who pursues evil attains his own death.

Godly people find life; evil people find death.

A son of righteousness experiences the abundant life, but the one who pursues evil hurries to his own death.
