20"Surely God does not reject a blameless man or strengthen the hands of evildoers.


In Context

18 But when it is torn from its spot, that place disowns it and says, 'I never saw you.'

19 Surely its life withers away, and from the soil other plants grow.

20 "Surely God does not reject a blameless man or strengthen the hands of evildoers.

21 He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy.

22 Your enemies will be clothed in shame, and the tents of the wicked will be no more."
