¹³ But it shall not be well with the wicked, neither shall he lengthen days like a shadow; because he doesn't fear God.

¹² For who knows what is good for man in life, all the days of his vain life which he spends like a shadow? For who can tell a man what will be after him under the sun?

² He comes forth like a flower, and is cut down. He also flees like a shadow, and doesn't continue.

¹¹ Woe to the wicked! Disaster is upon them; For the deeds of his hands will be paid back to him.

³ In covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words: whose sentence now from of old doesn't linger, and their destruction will not slumber.

¹⁴ Whereas you don't know what your life will be like tomorrow. For what is your life? For you are a vapor, that appears for a little time, and then vanishes away.

²⁹ and will come out; those who have done good, to the resurrection of life; and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.

⁴⁹ So will it be in the end of the world. The angels will come forth, and separate the wicked from among the righteous,

⁵⁰ and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth."

¹⁸ Then you shall return and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him who serves God and him who doesn't serve him.

²¹ There is no peace, says my God, to the wicked.

¹³ therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking comes suddenly in an instant.

⁴ Man is like a breath. His days are like a shadow that passes away.

²³ But you, God, will bring them down into the pit of destruction. Bloodthirsty and deceitful men shall not live out half their days, But I will trust in you.

⁵ Behold, you have made my days handbreadths. My lifetime is as nothing before you. Surely every man stands as a breath." Selah.

⁵ Yahweh examines the righteous, But the wicked and him who loves violence his soul hates.

³⁰ That the evil man is reserved to the day of calamity? That they are led forth to the day of wrath?

⁵ That the triumphing of the wicked is short, The joy of the godless but for a moment?

⁵ "Yes, the light of the wicked shall be put out, The spark of his fire shall not shine.

⁶ My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, And are spent without hope.

⁷ Oh remember that my life is a breath. My eye shall no more see good.
