Prov. 1:24‑33• 24Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;
 25But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
 26I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
 27When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
 28Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
 29For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord:
 30They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
 31Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
 32For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
 33But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil. (Prov. 1:24‑33)

Let him that does unrighteously do unrighteously still; and let the filthy make himself filthy still; and let him that is righteous practise righteousness still; and he that is holy, let him be sanctified still.

He that is unjust, let him do unjustly still: and he that is filthya, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him practiceb righteousness still: and he that is holy, let him be sanctified still.

WK Translation Notes

+
a
The words "and he that is filthy" are omitted by some MSS. contrary to the mass. The correct word for filthy is rhypōros as in all the well-known Greek copies.
b
There need be no doubt that dikaiōthēts (righteous) as in the T. R., must give place to the reading dikaiosynēn, which the Revisers follow, as they do with the sense "do" or "practice" righteousness, not be justified or "be righteous" as in the KJV.
