But even if they do, there won’t be any harvest. Instead, there will be sickness and pain that won’t go away.

Strength and understanding belong to him. Those who tell lies and those who believe them also belong to him.

Here’s what I’ve observed. People gather a crop from what they plant. If they plant evil and trouble, that’s what they will harvest.
