¹⁸ The wicked worketh a deceitful work, but to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward.

¹⁹ As righteousness tendeth to life, so he that pursueth evil pursueth it to his own death.

²⁰ They that are of a froward heart are an abomination to the Lord, but such as are upright in their ways are His delight.

²¹ Though they join hand in hand, the wicked shall not go unpunished; but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.

²³ The desire of the righteous is only good, but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
