20 The ruthless will vanish,

the mockers will disappear,

and all who have an eye for evil will be cut down—

20 For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scorner is consumed,

And all that watch for iniquity are cut off:

20 The scoffer will be gone,

the arrogant will disappear,

and those who plot evil will be killed.

20 For the terrible one is brought to nothing,

The scornful one is consumed,

And all who watch for iniquity are cut off—

20 Then the people without mercy will come to an end;

those who do not respect God will disappear.

Those who enjoy doing evil will be gone:

20 For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scoffer ceaseth, and all they that watch for iniquity are cut off;

20 For the terrible one shall come to nought, and the scorner shall be no more, and all that watch for iniquity shall be cut off,

20 Tyrants will be gone. 

Mockers will be finished. 

All who look for ways to do wrong will come to an end: 

20 For the ruthless one will vanish,

the scorner will disappear,

and all those who lie in wait with evil intent

will be killed—

20 For the tyrant shall be no more,

and the scoffer shall cease to be;

all those alert to do evil shall be cut off—

20 For the tyrant shall be no more,

and the scoffer shall come to an end.

And all those lying in wait for evil shall be cut off;

20 Those who don’t show any pity will vanish.

Those who make fun of others will disappear.

All those who look for ways to do what is evil will be cut off.

20 For the ruthless will come to an end and the scorner will be finished,

Indeed all who are intent on doing evil will be cut off;
