Proverbs

²²The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow therewith. ²³It is as sport to a fool to do wickedness: and so is wisdom to a man of understanding. ²⁴The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him: and the desire of the righteous shall be granted. ²⁵When the whirlwind passeth, the wicked is no more: but the righteous is an everlasting foundation. ²⁶As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that send him. ²⁷The fear of the LORD prolongeth days: but the years of the wicked shall be shortened. ²⁸The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.
