8 Bible Verses about Hope, Of The Wicked

If I have made gold my trust, or called fine gold my confidence,

Those who trusted in Cush and boasted in Egypt will be afraid and put to shame. That day the people who live on this coast will say: 'See what has happened to those we relied on, those we fled to for help and deliverance from the king of Assyria! How then can we escape?'

Ashkelon will see it and fear! Gaza will be pained and Ekron will be put to shame. The king will perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon will not be inhabited.

Such is the destiny of all who forget God. The hope of the godless will perish.

But the eyes of the wicked will fail and they will not escape. Their hope will become a dying gasp.

The hope of the righteous is joy. The prospect for the wicked is bleak.

What hope doe the godless have when he is cut off, when God takes away his life?

You were separate from Christ at that time, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel. You were strangers from the covenants of the promise. You had no hope and were without God in the world.
