“The blessing of Yahweh makes us rich.
Bur he adds no sorrow with it.
Doing wrong is like sport to a fool.
But wise conduct is pleasure to a man of understanding.
What the wicked dread will come upon them.
But the desire of the righteous will be granted them.
When the tempest passes,
The wicked are no more.
But the righteous are established forever.
Like vinegar to the teeth,
Like smoke to the eyes,
So are the lazy to their employers.
The fear of Yahweh prolongs life.
But the years of the wicked will be short.
The hope of the righteous one ends in gladness.
But the expectation of the wicked ones comes to nothing.
The way of Yahweh is a stronghold for the upright.
But the way of Yahweh is destruction for the evildoers.”
Yahweh has an important impact on our lives. The blessings of Yahweh make us rich with no sorrow. Fools do wrong things as if it was some kind of sport. On the other hand, the understanding people take pleasure in wise conduct. Whatever the wicked fear, it will happen to them. However, the righteous will be granted their wishes. After a storm, the wicked will no longer exist, but the righteous are established forever. Lazy people are like vinegar to your teeth or smoke to your eyes. The fear of Yahweh will prolong your life so that the wicked will have a short life. Righteous hope ends in gladness, while wicked expectations come to nothing. Yahweh’s way is a stronghold for the upright, but destruction for the evildoers.
