20 But the wicked will die;
    the enemies of the Lord will vanish like wild flowers;
    they will disappear like smoke.

21 The wicked borrow and never pay back,
    but good people are generous with their gifts.
22 Those who are blessed by the Lord will possess the land,
    but those who are cursed by him will be driven out.

20 But the wicked will perish;
    the enemies of the Lord are like (A)the glory of the pastures;
    they vanish—like (B)smoke they vanish away.
21 The wicked borrows but does not pay back,
    but the righteous (C)is generous and gives;
22 for those blessed by the Lord[a] shall (D)inherit the land,
    but those cursed by him (E)shall be cut off.
