Proverbs 6:15

Against Worthlessness

¹⁴ He always plots evil with perversity in his heart—
he stirs up trouble.
¹⁵ Therefore calamity will strike him suddenly;
he will be shattered instantly—beyond recovery. ¹⁶ The Lord hates six things;
in fact, seven are detestable to Him:

For This Cause

In an Instant

No

will be shattered instantly—

like a spreading breach,
a bulge in a high wall
whose collapse will come in an instant—suddenly!
