Proverbs 11:7

King James 2000

When a wicked man dies, his expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust men perishes.

See the chapter Copy

The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.

But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and they shall not escape, and their hope shall be as one dying.

The wicked is driven away in his wickedness: but the righteous has hope in his death.

His breath goes forth, he returns to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.

Will you yet say before him that slays you, I am a god? but you shall be a man, and no god, in the hand of him that slays you.

The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.

The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked comes in his stead.

The way of the LORD is strength to the upright: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.
