19. to whom alone the earth was givenand no stranger passed in their midst.
20. All the days of the wicked are painful;the number of years reserved for the hateful;
21. a sound of terror pierces their ears;when safe, raiders overtake them.
22. They can’t count on turning away from darkness;they are destined for a sword.
23. They wander about for bread. "Where is it?"They know that their day of darkness is fixed.
24. Adversity and stress scare them,master them like a king ready to strike;
25. for they raise a fist against Godand try to overpower the Almighty.
26. They run toward him aggressively,with a massive and strong shield.
27. They cover their face with greaseand make their loins gross.
28. They lived in ruined cities,unoccupied houses that turn to rubble.
29. They won’t get rich; their wealth won’t last;their property won’t extend over the earth.
