But the eyes of the wicked will fail. They will have no way to flee. Their hope will be the giving up of the spirit.”

This also will be my salvation, that a godless man will not come before him.

For the company of the godless will be barren, and fire will consume the tents of bribery.

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you, that you may be no priest to me. Because you have forgotten your God’s law, I will also forget your children.

You shall eat and be full, and you shall bless Yahweh your God for the good land which he has given you.
