19 (A)The meek shall obtain fresh joy in the Lord,
    and the poor among mankind shall exult in the Holy One of Israel.
20 For the ruthless shall come to nothing
    and (B)the scoffer cease,
    and all who watch to do evil shall be cut off,
21 who by a word make a man out to be an offender,
    and (C)lay a snare for him who reproves in the gate,
    and with an empty plea (D)turn aside him who is in the right.

22 Therefore thus says the Lord, (E)who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob:

“Jacob shall no more be ashamed,
    no more shall his face grow pale.
23 For when he sees his children,
    (F)the work of my hands, in his midst,
    they will sanctify my name;
(G)they will sanctify the Holy One of Jacob
    and will stand in awe of the God of Israel.
24 And those (H)who go astray in spirit will come to understanding,
    and those who murmur will accept instruction.”
