18 For she has fixed her house near death, and guided her wheels near Hades with the giants. for her house sinks down to death, and her paths to the departed; Surely her house leads down to death and her paths to the spirits of the dead.
19 None that go by her shall return, neither shall they take hold of right paths, for they are not apprehended of the years of life. none who go to her come back, nor do they regain the paths of life. None who go to her return or attain the paths of life.
20 For had they gone in good paths, they would have found the paths of righteousness easy. So you will walk in the way of the good and keep to the paths of the righteous. Thus you will walk in the ways of the good and keep to the paths of the righteous.
21 For the upright shall dwell in the earth, and the holy shall be left behind in it. For the upright will inhabit the land, and those with integrity will remain in it, For the upright will live in the land, and the blameless will remain in it;
22 The paths of the ungodly shall perish out of the earth, and transgressors shall be driven away from it. but the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the treacherous will be rooted out of it. but the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the unfaithful will be torn from it.
