Psalm 37:20-22
New Catholic Bible
20 But the wicked will perish,
all those who are enemies of the Lord.
Like the beauty of the meadows[a] they will wither away;
like smoke they will disappear.
21 The wicked man borrows but neglects to repay,
whereas the righteous man is generous in giving.
22 For those blessed by the Lord will possess the land,
but those who are cursed will perish.
