12 When the righteous triumph, there is great elation;

but when the wicked rise to power, people go into hiding.

12 When the righteous triumph, there is great glory,

but when the wicked rise, people hide themselves.

12 When righteous men do rejoice, there is great glory:

But when the wicked rise, a man is hidden.

12 When the godly succeed, everyone is glad.

When the wicked take charge, people go into hiding.

12 When the righteous rejoice, there is great glory;

But when the wicked arise, men hide themselves.

12 When good people triumph, there is great happiness,

but when the wicked get control, everybody hides.

12 When the righteous triumph, there is great glory;

But when the wicked rise, men hide themselves.

12 When the righteous triumph, there is great glory; but when the wicked rise, men conceal themselves.

12 When righteous people triumph, there is great glory, 

but when wicked people rise, people hide themselves. 

12 When the righteous triumph,

there is great rejoicing,

but when the wicked come to power,

people hide themselves.

12 When the righteous triumph, there is great glory,

but when the wicked prevail, people go into hiding.

12 When the righteous triumphs, great is the glory,

but with the rising of the wicked, a person will be hidden.

12 When godly people win, everyone is very happy.

But when sinners take charge, everyone hides.
