25 As the passing by of a hurricane, So the wicked is not, And the righteous is a foundation age-during.

26 As vinegar to the teeth, And as smoke to the eyes, So is the slothful to those sending him.

27 The fear of Jehovah addeth days, And the years of the wicked are shortened.

28 The hope of the righteous is joyful, And the expectation of the wicked perisheth.

29 The way of Jehovah is strength to the perfect, And ruin to workers of iniquity.
