23 The desire of the righteous ends only in good,

but the hope of the wicked only in wrath.

23 The desire of the righteous is only good:

But the expectation of the wicked is wrath.

23 The godly can look forward to a reward,

while the wicked can expect only judgment.

23 The desire of the righteous is only good,

But the expectation of the wicked is wrath.

23 Those who do right only wish for good,

but the wicked can expect to be defeated by God’s anger.

23 The desire of the righteous is only good;

But the expectation of the wicked is wrath.

23 The desire of the righteous is only good; the expectation of the wicked is wrath.

23 The desire of righteous people ends only in good, 

but the hope of wicked people ends only in fury. 

23 The desire of the righteous turns out well,

but the hope of the wicked leads to wrath.

23 The desire of the righteous ends only in good;

the expectation of the wicked in wrath.

23 The desire of the righteous is only good,

but the expectation of the wicked, wrath.

23 What godly people long for ends only in what is good.

But what sinners hope for ends only in God’s anger.

23 The desire of the righteous is only good,

But the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
