14The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, to kill those who are upright on the path.
15Their sword shall enter into their own heart. Their bows shall be broken.
16Better is a little that the upright has, than the abundance of many wicked.
17For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but Adonai upholds the upright.
18Adonai knows the days of the perfect. Their inheritance shall be forever.
19They shall not be disappointed in the time of evil. In the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
20But the wicked shall perish. The enemies of Adonai shall be like the beauty of the fields. They will vanish— vanish like smoke.
21The wicked borrow, and don’t pay back, but the upright give generously.
22For such as are blessed by him shall inherit the land. Those who are cursed by him shall be cut off.
