Proverbs 10:25-30

²⁵When the storm-wind is past, the sinner is seen no longer, but the upright man is safe for ever.

²⁶Like acid drink to the teeth and as smoke to the eyes, so is the hater of work to those who send him.

²⁷The fear of the Lord gives long life, but the years of the evil-doer will be cut short.

²⁸The hope of the upright man will give joy, but the waiting of the evil-doer will have its end in sorrow.

²⁹The way of the Lord is a strong tower for the upright man, but destruction to the workers of evil.

³⁰The upright man will never be moved, but evil-doers will not have a safe resting-place in the land.
