When the righteous prosper, the city rejoices; when the wicked perish, there are shouts of joy.
When the righteous prosper, the city rejoices
2 Kings 11:20 All the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was calm, because Athaliah had been slain with the sword at the palace.
Proverbs 28:12 When the righteous triumph, there is great elation; but when the wicked rise to power, people go into hiding.
Proverbs 29:2 When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan.
when the wicked perish, there are shouts of joy
Esther 8:17 In every province and in every city to which the edict of the king came, there was joy and gladness among the Jews, with feasting and celebrating. And many people of other nationalities became Jews because fear of the Jews had seized them.
Isaiah 30:31-32 The voice of the LORD will shatter Assyria; with his rod he will strike them down. Every stroke the LORD lays on them with his punishing club will be to the music of timbrels and harps, as he fights them in battle with the blows of his arm.
Nahum 3:18-19 King of Assyria, your shepherds slumber; your nobles lie down to rest. Your people are scattered on the mountains with no one to gather them, Nothing can heal you; your wound is fatal. All who hear the news about you clap their hands at your fall, for who has not felt your endless cruelty?
