7Hopes placed in mortals die with them; all the promise of Two Hebrew manuscripts; most Hebrew manuscripts, Vulgate, Syriac and Targum When the wicked die, their hope perishes; / all they expected from their power comes to nothing.
8The righteous person is rescued from trouble, and it falls on the wicked instead.
9With their mouths the godless destroy their neighbors, but through knowledge the righteous escape.
