³ Is it not destruction for the wicked,
And disaster for the workers of iniquity?

^16 (A)The face of the Lord is against those who do evil,
^(B)To ^[a]cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.

²² But the wicked will be ^[a]cut off from the ^[b]earth,
And the unfaithful will be uprooted from it.

⁴ But ^(A)with righteousness He shall judge the poor,
And decide with equity for the meek of the earth;
He shall ^(B)strike the earth with the rod of His mouth,
And with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked.
