18 For her house hath inclined unto death, And unto Rephaim her paths. 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 going in unto her turn back, Nor do they reach the paths 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 That thou dost go in the way of the good, And the paths of the righteous dost keep. 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 do inhabit the earth, And the perfect are left 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 And the wicked from the earth are cut off, And treacherous dealers plucked out of 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.
