²⁵ Don’t be afraid of sudden fear,
    neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it comes;
²⁶ for Yahweh will be your confidence,
    and will keep your foot from being taken.

³³ Yahweh’s curse is in the house of the wicked,
    but he blesses the habitation of the righteous.

³ Yahweh will not allow the soul of the righteous to go hungry,
    but he thrusts away the desire of the wicked.

⁶ Blessings are on the head of the righteous,
    but violence covers the mouth of the wicked.
⁷ The memory of the righteous is blessed,
    but the name of the wicked will rot.

¹⁶ The labor of the righteous leads to life.
    The increase of the wicked leads to sin.

²⁴ What the wicked fear will overtake them,
    but the desire of the righteous will be granted.
²⁵ When the whirlwind passes, the wicked is no more;
    but the righteous stand firm forever.

²⁸ The prospect of the righteous is joy,
    but the hope of the wicked will perish.
²⁹ The way of Yahweh is a stronghold to the upright,
    but it is a destruction to the workers of iniquity.
³⁰ The righteous will never be removed,
    but the wicked will not dwell in the land.

³ The integrity of the upright shall guide them,
    but the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them.

⁵ The righteousness of the blameless will direct his way,
    but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.
⁶ The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them,
    but the unfaithful will be trapped by evil desires.
⁷ When a wicked man dies, hope perishes,
    and expectation of power comes to nothing.
⁸ A righteous person is delivered out of trouble,
    and the wicked takes his place.
⁹ With his mouth the godless man destroys his neighbor,
    but the righteous will be delivered through knowledge.
¹⁰ When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices.
    When the wicked perish, there is shouting.
