17 The wicked's arms shall broken be, But God the just [by grace] sustains:
18 God knows the upright's days, and still Their heritage [surely] remains.
19 They shall not need to be ashamed When evil times [the land] betide, And in the days of scarcity They shall [with food] be satisfied.
19 They shall not need to be asham'd When evil times [the land] betide, And in the days of scarcity They shall [with food] be satisfy'd.
20 But wicked men shall perish all, [Even all] God's foes that him provoke, ⟨image 42⟩As fat of Lambs they shall consume, And [away] vanish into smoke.
