those who do evil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>11:3\u00a0The integrity of the upright guides them,\u00a0<br>but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>11:5\u00a0The righteousness of the blameless makes their paths straight,\u00a0<br>but the wicked are brought down by their own wickedness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>11:20\u00a0The Lord detests those whose hearts are perverse,\u00a0<br>but he delights in those whose ways are blameless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>12:3\u00a0No one can be established through wickedness,\u00a0<br>but the righteous cannot be uprooted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>13:6\u00a0Righteousness

out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>15:9 The Lord detests the way of the wicked,\u00a0<br>but he loves those who pursue righteousness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>21:8 The way of the guilty is devious,\u00a0<br>but the conduct of the innocent is upright.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>28:18 The one whose walk is blameless is kept safe,\u00a0<br>but the one whose ways are perverse will fall into the pit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>20:9\u00a0Who can say, \u201cI have kept my heart pure;\u00a0<br>I am clean and without sin\u201d?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>28:13\u00a0Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper,\u00a0<br>but the one who confesses and

forever,<br>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0but a lying tongue lasts only a moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>12:22 The\u00a0Lord\u00a0detests lying lips,<br>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0but he delights in people who are trustworthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>14:5 An honest witness does not deceive,<br> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0but a false witness pours out lies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>14:25 A truthful witness saves lives,<br>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0but a false witness is deceitful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>19:5 A false witness will not go unpunished,\u00a0<br>and whoever pours out lies will not go free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>19:9 A false witness will not go unpunished,\u00a0<br>and whoever pours out lies will perish<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>19:28 A corrupt witness mocks at justice,<br>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0and the mouth of the wicked gulps down evil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>21:28 A false witness will perish,<br>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0but a careful listener will testify successfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>22:20-21\u00a0<br>20\u00a0Have I not written thirty sayings for you,\u00a0<br>sayings of counsel and knowledge,\u00a0<br>21\u00a0teaching you to be honest and to speak the truth,\u00a0<br>so that you bring back truthful reports\u00a0<br>to those you serve?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>24:28 Do not testify against your neighbor without cause\u2014<br>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0would you use your lips to mislead?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>25:18 Like a club or a sword or a sharp arrow<br>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0is one who gives false testimony against a neighbor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>15:8 The Lord detests the sacrifice of the wicked,\u00a0<br>but the prayer of the upright pleases him.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>15:29 The Lord is far from the wicked,\u00a0<br>but he hears the prayer of the righteous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>21:3 To do what is right and just\u00a0<br>is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>21:27\u00a0The sacrifice of the wicked is detestable\u2014\u00a0<br>how much more so when brought with evil intent!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>28:9 If anyone turns a deaf ear to my instruction,\u00a0<br>even their prayers
