27The fear of the Lord prolongs life,
but the years of the wicked will be short.
28The hope of the righteous ends in gladness,
but the expectation of the wicked comes to nought.
29The Lord is a stronghold to him whose way is upright,
but destruction to evildoers.
30The righteous will never be removed,
but the wicked will not dwell in the land.

but the years of the wicked are shortened.
The hope of the righteous is gladness,
