A wicked man hardeneth his face: but as for the upright, he directeth his way.
Proverbs 21:29
Hard is the face of the natural man;
brooding and distant, as bent as rattan.
A mask to conceal wicked thoughts or a hole
that grows like a canker inside his own soul.
The upright have faces that shine day and night.
Their smile is effusive, no matter their plight.
And that is because with the Lord they do walk
and find in his kindness a steady bedrock.
