The violence of the wicked will sweep them away, because they refuse to do what is just.
His mischief returns upon his own head, and on his own pate his violence descends.
The Lord has made himself known, he has executed judgment; the wicked are snared in the work of their own hands. Higgaion. Selah
Blessings are on the head of the righteous, but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
He who pursues righteousness and kindness will find life and honor.
And I will cast you out of my sight, as I cast out all your kinsmen, all the offspring of Ephraim.
As for his father, because he practiced extortion, robbed his brother, and did what is not good among his people, behold, he shall die for his iniquity.
O you who turn justice to wormwood, and cast down righteousness to the earth!
Let no one deceive you with empty words, for it is because of these things that the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
