In context
4My lips shall not speak evil words, Neither shall my soul meditate unrighteous thoughts.
5Far be it from me that I should justify you till I die; For I will not let go my innocence,
— Job 27:6 —
7Nay rather, but let mine enemies be as the overthrow of the ungodly, And they that rise up against me, as the destruction of transgressors.
8For what is the hope of the ungodly, that he holds to it? Will he indeed trust in the Lord and be saved?
