27. Fearing the Lord prolongs life,but the life span of the wicked will be shortened.
28. The hope of the righteous is joy,but the expectation of the wicked will remain unfulfilled.
29. The way of the Lord is like a stronghold for the upright, but it is destruction to evildoers.
30. The righteous will never be moved,but the wicked will not inhabit the land.
31. The speech of the righteous bears the fruit of wisdom, but the one who speaks perversion will be destroyed.
