10 Sinners will soon disappear,never to be found,
11 but the poor will take the landand enjoy a big harvest.
12 Merciless people make plotsagainst good peopleand snarl like animals,
13 but the Lord laughs and knowstheir time is coming soon.
14 The wicked kill with swordsand shoot arrows to murderthe poor and the needyand all who do right.
15 But they will be killedby their own swords,and their arrowswill be broken.
16 It is better to live rightand be poorthan to be sinful and rich.
