    but the righteous has hope in his death.

³ The eyes of the Lord are in every place,
    keeping watch on the evil and the good.

⁶ In the house of the righteous is much treasure,
    but in the revenue of the wicked is trouble.

⁸ The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord,
    but the prayer of the upright is His delight.

⁹ The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the Lord,
    but He loves him who follows after righteousness.

²⁸ The heart of the righteous studies to answer,
    but the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things.

²⁹ The Lord is far from the wicked,
    but He hears the prayer of the righteous.

⁴ The Lord has made all things for Himself,
    yes, even the wicked for the day of evil.

⁴ A wicked doer gives heed to false lips,
    and a liar gives ear to a wayward tongue.
