²⁶ Do not send a lazy person with a message.
    He will bring you pain, like the taste of bitter wine,
    or like smoke in your eyes.
²⁷ If you respect and obey the Lord, you will live longer.
    But wicked people will die before they are old.
²⁸ What good people hope to receive causes them to be happy.
    But wicked people never receive what they hope for.
