Proverbs 10:27-29

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁷ The fear of the Lord prolongs life,
    but the years of the wicked will be short.
²⁸ The hope of the righteous ends in gladness,
    but the expectation of the wicked comes to nothing.
²⁹ The way of the Lord is a stronghold for the upright,
    but destruction for evildoers.
