25 After a whirlwind passes by, the wicked are no more,but the righteous stand firm forever.
26 Like vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes,so are lazy people to those who authorize them.
27 The fear of the Lord increases one’s life,but the years of the wicked will be cut short.
28 The expectations of the righteous result in joy,but the hopes of the wicked will perish.
29 The path of the Lord is a refuge for the innocentand ruin for those who do evil.
30 The righteous will never be shaken,but the wicked won’t dwell in the land.
31 The mouth of the righteous flows with wisdom,but the twisted tongue will be cut off.
