Arrogance comes along with pride,
As it is hiding deep down inside;
They are boastful but then comes shame,
As humble wisdom stays the same.
Humble people with their wisdom,
Comes from the heavenly kingdom;
As integrity guides people,
Who have been reading the Gospel.
Hypocrisy is unfaithful,
Leading you to being a fool;
Then treachery to a betide,
And then their conflicts will collide.
Riches and wealth will never aid,
When the unknown makes you afraid;
A day of fury turns to rage,
Like a tiger in a locked cage.
But from death righteousness will save,
Innocent people from the grave;
Decent people with righteousness,
The Lord ensures that He will bless.
Hope vanishes upon the death,
When the wicked take their last breath;
His confidence in strength vanished,
For eternal life has banished.
A righteous person is rescued,
With keeping a good attitude;
Since His knowledge will be the key,
Through the insight that he will see.
When the righteous people prosper,
God will also bless them proper;
There will be tidings that are glad,
With songs of joy rather than sad.
