20. They die suddenly in the middle of the night;people shudder, then pass away.Even the mighty are removed without effort.
21. For His eyes watch over a man’s ways,and He observes all his steps.
22. There is no darkness, no deep darkness,where evildoers can hide themselves.

25. Therefore, He recognizes their deeds and overthrows them by night, and they are crushed.
26. In full view of the public, He strikes them for their wickedness,
