'Wicked' in the Bible

Woe to the wicked -- evil, Because the deed of his hand is done to him.

Declaring righteous the wicked for a bribe, And the righteousness of the righteous They turn aside from him.

And he hath judged in righteousness the poor, And decided in uprightness for the humble of earth, And hath smitten earth with the rod of his mouth, And with the breath of his lips he putteth the wicked to death.

And I have appointed on the world evil, And on the wicked their iniquity, And have caused to cease the excellency of the proud, And the excellency of the terrible I make low.

Ceased hath the golden one. Broken hath Jehovah the staff of the wicked, The sceptre of rulers.

The wicked findeth favour, He hath not learned righteousness, In a land of straightforwardness he dealeth perversely, And seeth not the excellency of Jehovah.

And the miser -- his instruments are evil, He hath counselled wicked devices, To corrupt the poor with lying sayings, Even when the needy speaketh justly.

There is no peace, said Jehovah, to the wicked!

Lo, the Lord Jehovah giveth help to me, Who is he that declareth me wicked? Lo, all of them as a garment wear out, A moth doth eat them.

And it appointeth with the wicked his grave, And with the rich are his high places, Because he hath done no violence, Nor is deceit in his mouth.

Forsake doth the wicked his way, And the man of iniquity his thoughts, And he returneth to Jehovah, and He pitieth him, And unto our God for He multiplieth to pardon.

And the wicked are as the driven out sea, For to rest it is not able, And its waters cast out filth and mire.

There is no peace, said my God, to the wicked!
