23 It is a fool's pleasure to do wickedness, But wisdom is a man of understanding's pleasure.
24 What the wicked fear, will overtake them, But the desire of the righteous will be granted.
25 When the whirlwind passes, the wicked is no more; But the righteous stand firm forever.
26 As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, So is the sluggard to those who send him.
27 The fear of Yahweh prolongs days, But the years of the wicked shall be shortened.
