Proverbs 16:4

The Message

God made everything with a place and purpose; even the wicked are included—but for judgment.

See the chapter Copy

God looked over everything he had made; it was so good, so very good! It was evening, it was morning— Day Six.

God can’t stomach arrogance or pretense; believe me, he’ll put those braggarts in their place.

So God knows how to rescue the godly from evil trials. And he knows how to hold the feet of the wicked to the fire until Judgment Day.
