Proverbs 12:6-8 American Standard Version (ASV)

6. The words of the wicked are of lying in wait for blood; But the mouth of the upright shall deliver them.

7. The wicked are overthrown, and are not; But the house of the righteous shall stand.

8. A man shall be commended according to his wisdom; But he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.
