Psalms 31:23

Love the Lord (Yahweh), all you his faithful (pious, loyal) followers!
The Lord (Yahweh) preserves the faithful,
but he rewards (compensates) the arrogant (proud) in full measure.
[Although the meaning is that God will punish the arrogant, the text is difficult to translate accurately. Rewards is the Hebrew salem, which has the same root as the word shalom. It refers to God doing something completely and utterly. This is followed by the Hebrew al-jeter, which can mean "in full measure" or "with a bowstring," and then the meaning becomes "with precision," like an arrow on a bowstring being shot and hitting its target. Another possible meaning is that a "reward" awaits them in proportion to their arrogance.]
