22 They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nought.

20 Behold, (A)God will not [a]cast away the blameless,
Nor will He uphold the evildoers.

And your lips with [b]rejoicing.
22 Those who hate you will be (B)clothed with shame,
And the dwelling place of the wicked [c]will come to nothing.”
