Proverbs 11.31

Septuagint

ei o men dikaioV moliV swzetai,
o asebhV kai amartwloV pou faneitai

New Testament - 1 Peter 4.18

kai
ei o dikaioV moliV swzetai,
o asebhV kai amartwloV pou faneitai

Septuagint

If the righteous scarcely shall be saved, where shall the ungodly and sinner appear?

New Testament

And if the righteous is scarcely saved, where shall the ungodly and sinner appear?

Masoretic Text

Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth; How much more the wicked and the sinner!

Comments: The MT omits the notion that the righteous will be saved only with difficulty. NIV: “If the righteous receive their due on earth, how much more the ungodly and the sinner.”
