11 The house of the sinner will be overturned, but the tent of the upright man will do well.
12 There is a way which seems straight before a man, but its end is the ways of death.
(Read Proverbs 14:11)
Sin ruins many great families; whilst righteousness often raises and strengthens even mean families.
(Read Proverbs 14:12-13)
The ways of carelessness, of worldliness, and of sensuality, seem right to those that walk in them; but self-deceivers prove self-destroyers. See the vanity of carnal mirth.
