32:1Indeed a King will reign according to righteousness, / And the rulers will rule according to justice.

32:2And a man will be like a refuge from the wind / And a covering from the tempest, / Like streams of water in a dry place, / Like the shadow of a massive rock in a wasted land.

32:3And the eyes of those who see will not be dim, / And the ears of those who hear will attend.

-
32:5The fool will no longer be called noble, / Nor will the cheat be said to be generous;
Compare
-
32:6For the fool will speak foolishness, / And his heart will commit iniquity / By committing profaneness / And by speaking error against Jehovah, / By leaving the soul of the hungry empty / And by causing drink for the thirsty to fail.
Compare
-
32:7And as for the cheat, his tools are evil; / He devises wicked schemes / To destroy the poor with false words / Even when the needy speaks rightly.
Compare
-
32:8But the noble man devises noble things, / And upon noble things he stands.

32:14Because the palace will be abandoned; / The multitude of the city will be forsaken; / The Hill and the watchtower / Will become caves forever, / A joy for wild asses, / A pasture for flocks;
Compare
-
32:15Until the Spirit is poured upon us from on high, / And the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, / And the fruitful field is considered to be a forest.
Compare
-
32:16Then justice will dwell in the wilderness, / And righteousness will remain in the fruitful field;
Compare
-
32:17And the work of righteousness will be peace, / And the result of righteousness, quietness and assurance forever.
Compare
-
32:18And my people will live in a peaceful habitation / And in secure dwellings and carefree resting places.
Compare
-
32:19And it will hail when the forest comes down, / And the city will be utterly laid low.
Compare
-
32:20Blessed are you who sow beside all the water, / Who send there the feet of the ox and the donkey.
