The hope of the righteous is joy, but the expectation of the wicked will remain unfulfilled.

When a wicked person dies, his expectation perishes, and the hope of his strength perishes.

What the righteous desire leads only to good, but what the wicked hope for leads to wrath.

For surely there is a future, and your hope will not be cut off.

Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

Do you see someone who is hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

Discipline your child, for there is hope, but do not set your heart on causing his death.

Likewise, know that wisdom is sweet to your soul; if you find it, you will have a future, and your hope will not be cut off.
