The Righteous and the Wicked

“Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him. . . . Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him.” Isa. 3:10, 11.
“SAY ye to the righteous,” saith God, “It is well;” Though the storm, cloud, and tempest appear, Thou shalt hide thee for aye in the “cleft of the rock,” And be safe in the hour of thy fear.
But say to the wicked, “With thee it is ill;” O how dark and how sad is thy lot, When the judgments of God in the land are abroad, And the wing of the Lord shelters not!
O say to my people, forever, “Fear not,” But trust in my power and my love; In mercy I’ll comfort, and strengthen, and guide, And triumphantly bear you above.
