He who carefully seeks good gets favor; but he who seeks mischief, it shall come to him.

An evil one seeks only rebellion; so a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.

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.

And they hanged Haman on the wooden gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. And the king's wrath lay down.

The wicked in his pride persecutes the poor; let them be taken in the plans that they have imagined.

He who has a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he gives of his bread to the poor.
