⁴Yahweh knows why he does everything that he does; he has even prepared the wicked for the time that he will punish them.

⁵Yahweh hates/detests everyone who is proud IDM; you can be certain IDM that they will be punished LIT.

⁶Be loyal to Yahweh and faithfully obey him; if you do that, he will forgive you for having sinned. If we revere him, nothing evil will happen to us (OR, he will prevent evil things from happening to us).

⁷When our behavior pleases Yahweh, he even causes our enemies to act peacefully toward us.

⁸It is better to have a small amount of money that is earned honestly than to have a lot of money that is acquired dishonestly.
