Proverbs 10:24-26

Modern English Version

²⁴ The fear of the wicked will come upon him,
    but the desire of the righteous will be granted.

²⁵ As the whirlwind passes, so is the wicked no more,
    but the righteous has an everlasting foundation.

²⁶ As vinegar to the teeth and as smoke to the eyes,
    so is the sluggard to those who send him.
