Psalms of Solomon 14

1The Lord is faithful to those who love him in truth, to those who endure his discipline, to those who walk in the righteousness of his commandments, in the law that he commanded us for our life.

2The holy ones of the Lord will live in him forever; the paradise of the Lord, the trees of life, are his holy ones.

3Their planting is rooted forever; they will not fail all the days of heaven, because Israel is the portion and inheritance of God.

4But not so the sinners and the lawless, who loved a day of sharing in their sin; their desire lay in the brevity of corruption,

5And they did not remember God, that the ways of men are known before him continually, and he knows the secrets of the heart before they come to be.

6Therefore Hades and darkness and destruction are their inheritance, and they will not be found in the day of mercy for the righteous. But the holy ones of the Lord will inherit life in gladness.
