Job 22:20

¹⁸ But it was He who filled their houses with good things; so I stay far from the counsel of the wicked.

¹⁹ The righteous see it and are glad; the innocent mock them:

‘Surely our foes are destroyed, and fire has consumed their excess.’

²¹ Reconcile now and be at peace with Him; thereby good will come to you.

²² Receive instruction from His mouth, and lay up His words in your heart.
