15. But their swords will stab their own hearts.Their bows will break.
16. It’s better to have little and be rightthan to have much and be wrong.
17. The power of the wicked will be broken.But the Lord supports those who do right.
18. The Lord watches over the lives of the innocent.Their reward will last forever.
19. They will not be ashamed when trouble comes.They will be full in times of hunger.
20. But the wicked will die.The Lord’s enemies will be like the flowers of the fields.They will disappear like smoke.
21. The wicked people borrow but don’t pay back.But those who do right give freely to others.
22. Those people the Lord blesses will inherit the land.But those he curses will be sent away.
