Proverbs 21:15 in 6 English translations. Each links through to the full chapter for context.

New International Version (NIV)

15When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous

but terror to evildoers.

15The exercise of justice is joy for the righteous,

But terror to those who practice injustice.

15The exercise of justice is joy for the righteous,

But is terror to the workers of iniquity.

15When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous (the upright, the one in right standing with God),

But to the evildoers it is disaster.

15Justice executed is a joy to the righteous,

but a terror to the workers of iniquity.

15When you do what is fair, you make godly people glad.

But you terrify those who do what is evil.
