Proverbs 11:7

Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 version

When the wicked man is dead, there shall be no hope any more: and the expectation of the solicitous shall perish.

See the chapter Copy

The expectation of the just is joy; but the hope of the wicked shall perish.

But the eyes of the wicked shall decay, and the way to escape shall fail them, and their hope the abomination of the soul.

The wicked man shall be driven out in his wickedness: but the just hath hope in his death.

Who telleth the number of the stars: and calleth them all by their names.

Wilt thou yet say before them that slay thee: I am God; whereas thou art a man, and not God, in the hand of them that slay thee?

The just is delivered out of distress: and the wicked shall be given up for him.

The strength of the upright is the way of the Lord: and fear to them that work evil.
