Proverbs 2:21
For the upright will live in the land, and the blameless will remain in it;
In context
18 Surely her house leads down to death and her paths to the spirits of the dead.
19 None who go to her return or attain the paths of life. 20 Thus you will walk in the ways of the good and keep to the paths of the righteous. 21 For the upright will live in the land, and the blameless will remain in it; 22 but the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the unfaithful will be torn from it.
