In context

¹⁷How often is the lamp of the wicked put out? Does disaster come upon them? Does God, in His anger, apportion destruction?

¹⁸Are they like straw before the wind, like chaff swept away by a storm?

¹⁹It is said that God lays up one’s punishment for his children. Let God repay the man himself, so he will know it.

²⁰Let his eyes see his own destruction; let him drink for himself the wrath of the Almighty.

²¹For what does he care about his household after him, when the number of his months has run out?
