20 But the wicked will perish;
    the enemies of the Lord are like (A)the glory of the pastures;
    they vanish—like (B)smoke they vanish away.

21 The wicked borrows but does not pay back,
    but the righteous (C)is generous and gives;
22 for those blessed by the Lord[a] shall (D)inherit the land,
    but those cursed by him (E)shall be cut off.
