Alternate translation: "I am about to devise a plan to bring disaster against you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism]])

The words "ways" and "practices" both refer to a person's actions and general lifestyle. Alternate translation: "so your actions will result in good happening to you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-doublet]])
