9 He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: but he that perverteth his ways shall be known.
9 Whoever walks in integrity walks securely, but he who makes his ways crooked will be found out.
9 Honesty lives confident and carefree, but Shifty is sure to be exposed.

20 One whose heart is corrupt does not prosper; one whose tongue is perverse falls into trouble.
20 He that hath a froward
20 A man of crooked heart does not discover good, and one with a dishonest tongue falls into calamity.
20 A bad motive can't achieve a good end; double-talk brings you double trouble.
20 He who has a deceitful heart finds no good, And he who has a perverse tongue falls into evil.
20 The crooked heart will not prosper; the lying tongue tumbles into trouble.
(Read Proverbs 17:20)
