That the triumphing of the wicked is short,\par\tab And the joy of the godless but for a moment?
But now ye glory in your vauntings: all such glorying is evil.
But let each man prove his own work, and then shall he have his glorying in regard of himself alone, and not of his neighbor.
Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven.
For what is the hope of the godless, though he get him gain,\par\tab When God taketh away his soul?
Behold, this is the joy of his way;\par\tab And out of the earth shall others spring.
I have seen the foolish taking root:\par\tab But suddenly I cursed his habitation.
So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath pacified.\par
That the godless man reign not,\par\tab That there be none to ensnare the people.\par
Jehovah, how long shall the wicked,\par\tab How long shall the wicked triumph?
Then said Joab, I may not tarry thus with thee. And he took three darts in his hand, and thrust them through the heart of Absalom, while he was yet alive in the midst of the oak.
And ten young men that bare Joab's armor compassed about and smote Absalom, and slew him.
For ye say, Where is the house of the prince?\par\tab And where is the tent wherein the wicked dwelt?
For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be:\par\tab Yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and he shall not be.
They prate, they speak arrogantly:\par\tab All the workers of iniquity boast themselves.
