Proverbs 10:24-26

GOD’S WORD Translation

²⁴ That which wicked people dread happens to them,
but ⌞the Lord⌟ grants the desire of righteous people.
²⁵ When the storm has passed, the wicked person has vanished,
but the righteous person has an everlasting foundation.
²⁶ Like vinegar to the teeth,
like smoke to the eyes,
so is the lazy person to those who send him ⌞on a mission⌟.
