8 Bible Verses about Hope, Of The Wicked

"If I've put my confidence in gold, if I've told gold, "You're my security,'

Then they will be dismayed and put to shame because of Cush, their hope, and Egypt, their jewel. At that time, the inhabitants of this coastland will say, "See, this is what has happened to those on whom we counted and relied for help and deliverance from the king of Assyria! How, then, can we escape?'"

Ashkelon will see it happen and will be terrified; Gaza will tremble greatly. Ekron will be ashamed of her expectations, Gaza's king will perish, and Ashkelon will become uninhabited.

Such are the paths of everyone who forgets God the hope of the godless will be destroyed:

But what the wicked look for will fail; their way of escape will be taken away from them; their only hope is to take their final breath."

What the righteous hope for brings joy, but the expectation of the wicked dies.

For where is the hope of the godless when he is eliminated; when God takes away his life?

At that time you were without the Messiah, excluded from citizenship in Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise. You had no hope and were in the world without God.
