“The good person obtains favor from Yahweh.
But those who devise evil,
Yahweh condemns.
No one finds security by wickedness.
But the root of the righteous
Will never be moved.”
Good people find favor with Yahweh. On the other hand, Yahweh condemns those who devise evil ways. You cannot find security in wickedness. The root of the good or righteous person cannot be moved. They are as steady as a rock. The root is what keeps trees and humans straight.
