20 “Surely, God will not cast away a perfect man,
    nor will He strengthen the evildoers,
21 until He fills your mouth with laughing,

    and the dwelling place of the wicked will come to nothing.”

22 Those who hate you will be clothed with shame,
and the tent of the wicked will be no more.”[a]
