Proverbs 11:3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.… Nehemiah was brave and upright; and his integrity guided him to honour and renown, and his righteousness delivered his friends and their enterprise from disaster (Nehemiah 6:10-16). Haman was perverse and wicked; his ways were crooked; he conspired to take away the lives of others; and on the gallows which he had set up for Mordecai he himself was hung: and so "the transgressor was taken in his own naughtiness" (Esther 7:10).
