Psalm 37:21

Instruction In Wisdom

²⁰ But the wicked perish, and the enemies of Jehovah, As the preciousness of lambs, Have been consumed, In smoke they have been consumed. ²¹ The wicked is borrowing and repayeth not, And the righteous is gracious and giving. ²² For His blessed ones do possess the land, And His reviled ones are cut off.
