²² There is no peace, said Jehovah, to the wicked!

²¹ There is no peace, said my God, to the wicked!

²⁰ `All days of the wicked he is paining himself, And few years have been laid up for the terrible one.

²¹ A fearful voice `is' in his ears, In peace doth a destroyer come to him.

²² He believeth not to return from darkness, And watched `is' he for the sword.

²³ He is wandering for bread -- `Where `is' it?' He hath known that ready at his hand Is a day of darkness.

²⁴ Terrify him do adversity and distress, They prevail over him As a king ready for a boaster.

⁴² saying -- `If thou didst know, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things for thy peace; but now they were hid from thine eyes.

¹⁷ And a way of peace they did not know.
