16. Who have been cut down unexpectedly, A flood is poured out on their foundation.
17. Those saying to God, `Turn aside from us,' And what doth the Mighty One to them?
18. And he hath filled their houses [with] good: (And the counsel of the wicked Hath been far from me.)
19. See do the righteous and they rejoice, And the innocent mocketh at them,
20. `Surely our substance hath not been cut off, And their excellency hath fire consumed.'
21. Acquaint thyself, I pray thee, with Him, And be at peace, Thereby thine increase [is] good.
22. Receive, I pray thee, from His mouth a law, And set His sayings in thy heart.
23. If thou dost return unto the Mighty Thou art built up, Thou puttest iniquity far from thy tents.
24. So as to set on the dust a defence, And on a rock of the valleys a covering.
25. And the Mighty hath been thy defence, And silver [is] strength to thee.
