Proverbs 11:6

Context

11:6 The righteousness of the upright will deliver them, 1 

but the faithless will be captured 2  by their own desires. 3 

1 sn The contrast is between being rescued or delivered (נָצַל, natsal) and being captured (לָכַד, lakhad). Righteousness is freeing; [evil] desires are enslaving.

2 tn Heb “taken captive” (so NRSV); NIV, TEV “are trapped.”

3 tn Heb “but by the desire of the faithless are they taken captive.”
