Psalm 37:14-16

New International Reader's Version

¹⁴ Sinners pull out their swords.
    They bend their bows.
They want to kill poor and needy people.
    They plan to murder those who lead honest lives.
¹⁵ But they will be killed by their own swords.
    Their own bows will be broken.

¹⁶ Those who do what is right may have very little.
    But it’s better than the wealth of many sinners.
