10. In just a little while, the wicked will be no more;though you look carefully at his place, he will not be there.
11. But the meek shall inherit the landand delight themselves in abundant peace.
12. The wicked plots against the righteousand gnashes his teeth at him,
13. but the Lord laughs at the wicked,for he sees that his day is coming.
14. The wicked draw the sword and bend their bowsto bring down the poor and needy,to slay those whose way is upright;
15. their sword shall enter their own heart,and their bows shall be broken.
16. Better is the little that the righteous hasthan the abundance of many wicked.
