055) (2)

(2) 10 For yet a little while, and then the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently mark his place, and it not see.

11 But meek ones the inheritance shall of the earth possess: also they shall themselves delight in multitude of peace.

12 The wicked plots against the just, gnashing at him his teeth.

13 The Lord shall laugh at him: because his day coming he seeth.

14 The wicked have drawn out their sword, and bent their bow have they, to cast the poor and needy down, to kill th’ upright in way.

15 Their sword shall enter their own heart, their bows shall broken be.

16 The just mans little, better is then wicked’s treasury.

17 For th’ arms of wicked shall be broke: the Lord the just doth stay.

18 The Lord doth know upright men’s days: and their lot is for aye.

19 Neither shall they ashamed be in any time of ill: and when the days of famine come, they then shall have their fill.

20 But wicked, and foes of the Lord as lambs fat shall decay: they shall consume: yea into smoke they shall consume away.
