but goodwill is found among the upright.

But among the righteous there is favour.

but the godly acknowledge it and seek reconciliation.

9 Fools mock at sin,

But among the upright there is favor.

9 Fools don’t care if they sin,

but honest people work at being right.

9 A trespass-offering mocketh fools;

But among the upright there is good will.

9 Fools make a mock at trespass; but for the upright there is favour.

9 Stubborn fools make fun of guilt, 

but there is forgiveness among decent people. 

9 Fools mock at making restitution,

but there is goodwill among the upright.

9 Fools mock at the guilt offering,

but the upright enjoy God’s favor.

9 Fools mock the guilt offering,

but among the upright, it is favorable.

9 Foolish people laugh at making things right when they sin.

But honest people try to do the right thing.

9 Fools mock at sin,

But among the upright there is good will.
