12
The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.
13
The Lord shall laugh at him, for He seeth that his day is coming.
14
The wicked have drawn out the sword and have bent their bows to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright manner of living.
15
Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
16
A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked.
17
For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.
18
The LORD knoweth the days of the upright; and their inheritance shall be for ever.
19
They shall not be ashamed in the evil time, and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
20
But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall be consumed; into smoke shall they be consumed away.
21
The wicked borroweth and payeth not back, but the righteous showeth mercy and giveth:
22
for such as are blessed by Him shall inherit the earth, but they that are cursed by Him shall be cut off.
