16 A little is better to the just than the many riches of sinners.
17 For the arms of sinners will be crushed, but the Lord confirms the just.
18 The Lord knows the days of the immaculate, and their inheritance will be in eternity.
19 They will not be confounded in an evil time; and in days of famine, they will be satisfied:
20 for sinners will perish. Truly, the adversaries of the Lord, soon after they have been honored and exalted, will fade away, in the same way that smoke fades away.
21 The sinner will lend and not release, but the just one shows compassion and donates.
22 For those who bless him will inherit the earth, but those who curse him will perish.
