3 No one can be established through wickedness,

but the righteous cannot be uprooted.

3 A man shall not be established by wickedness:

But the root of the righteous shall not be moved.

3 Wickedness never brings stability,

but the godly have deep roots.

3 A man is not established by wickedness,

But the root of the righteous cannot be moved.

3 Doing evil brings no safety at all,

but a good person has safety and security.

3 A man shall not be established by wickedness;

But the root of the righteous shall not be moved.

3 A man shall not be established by wickedness; but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.

3 A person cannot stand firm on a foundation of wickedness, 

and the roots of righteous people cannot be moved. 

3 Man cannot be made secure by wickedness,

but the root of the righteous is immovable.

3 No one finds security by wickedness,

but the root of the righteous will never be moved.

3 A person will not be established by wickedness,

but the root of the righteous will not be moved.

3 If a man does what is evil, he can’t become strong and steady.

But if people do what is right, they can’t be removed from the land.

3 A man will not be established by wickedness,

But the root of the righteous will not be moved.
