Psalms 37:14-17 New English Translation (NET)

14. Evil men draw their swordsand prepare their bows,to bring down the oppressed and needy,and to slaughter those who are godly.

15. Their swords will pierce their own hearts,and their bows will be broken.

16. The little bit that a godly man owns is better thanthe wealth of many evil men,

17. for evil men will lose their power,but the Lord sustains the godly.
