12. The wicked plan bad things for those who are good. They show their teeth in anger at them.
13. But our Lord will laugh at them. He will make sure they get what they deserve.
14. The wicked draw their swords to kill the poor and the helpless. They aim their arrows to murder all who live right.
15. But their bows will break, and their swords will pierce their own hearts.
16. A few good people are better than a large crowd of those who are evil.
17. The wicked will be destroyed, but the Lord cares for those who are good.
