Proverbs 11:6-11 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

6. The justice of the upright saves them,but the faithless are caught in their own intrigue.

7. When a person dies, hope is destroyed;expectation pinned on wealth is destroyed.

8. The just are rescued from a tight spot,but the wicked fall into it instead.

9. By a word the impious ruin their neighbors,but through their knowledge the just are rescued.

10. When the just prosper, the city rejoices;when the wicked perish, there is jubilation.

11. Through the blessing of the upright the city is exalted,but through the mouth of the wicked it is overthrown.
