One seeking good early seeks favor; but one pursuing an evil thing, it shall come to him.
And they hanged Haman on the wooden gallows which he had prepared for Mordecai. And the king’s wrath lay down.
The wicked one in his pride will pursue the afflicted one; they will be caught in the schemes which they have devised.
They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down; they have dug a pit before me; they have fallen into it. Selah.
An evil one seeks only rebellion, so a cruel messenger is sent against him.
The good of eye, he is blessed, for he gives of his bread to the poor one.
