Proverbs 11:20-22
New American Standard Bible
20 The perverse in heart are an abomination to the Lord,
But the (A)blameless in their [a]walk are His (B)delight.
21 [b]Be assured, the evil person will not go unpunished,
But the [c]descendants of the righteous will be rescued.
22 As a (C)ring of gold in a pig’s snout
So is a beautiful woman who lacks discretion.
