20 Stand by your covenant[a] and attend to it,
    and grow old in your work.

21 Do not wonder at the works of a sinner,
    but trust in the Lord and keep at your toil;
for it is easy in the sight of the Lord
    to enrich a poor man quickly and suddenly.
22 The blessing of the Lord is[b] the reward of the godly,
    and quickly God causes his blessing to flourish.
