“The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness.”
Proverbs 11:6 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 11:6
The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them, but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness. Righteousness provides deliverance from dangers that trap the wicked. The wicked are captured by their own evil (havvah - wickedness, calamity) - sin becomes snare entrapping the sinner. This demonstrates sin's self-destructive nature and righteousness's protective power. What righteousness delivers from, wickedness ensnares in.
