επισταται δικαιος κρινειν πενιχροις ο δε ασεβης ου συνησει γνωσιν και πτωχω ουχ υπαρχει νους επιγνωμων

When the wicked increase, sin increases; but the righteous will see their downfall.

When the wicked H7563 are multiplied, H7235 (QalInf) transgression H6588 increaseth: H7235 (QalImpf) But the righteous H6662 shall see H7200 (QalImpf) their fall. H4658

βδελυγμα δικαιοις ανηρ αδικος βδελυγμα δε ανομω κατευθυνουσα οδος

I said in my heart, “God will judge the righteous and the wicked; for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work.”

I said H559 (QalPerf) in mine heart, H3820 God H430 shall judge H8199 (QalImpf) the righteous H6662 and the wicked: H7563 for there is a time H6256 there for every purpose H2656 and for every work. H4639
