CONTRASTING THE RIGHTEOUS AND WICKED

In Proverbs 11 many verses contrast the outcome of a righteous life compared to a wicked one:

Verse   RIGHTEOUS             WICKED
4         Delivered from death  Riches profit not
5         Way directed               Fall by wickedness
6         Deliverance                Taken
8         Out of trouble             Into trouble
10       Exultation                   Overthrown
18       Sure reward                Deceitful work
19       Tends to life                Pursues death
21       Deliverance                Punishment
23       Good desire                Expects wrath
27       Gets favor                  Gets mischief
28       Flourish                      Fall (failing)
30       Tree of life                      - -
