Proverbs 11:20-22
Legacy Standard Bible
20 Those with a crooked heart are an abomination to Yahweh,
But those of a (A)blameless way are His (B)delight.
21 [a]Assuredly, the evil man will not go unpunished,
But the seed of the righteous will escape.
22 As a (C)ring of gold in a swine’s snout
So is a beautiful woman who turns away from [b]discretion.
