2. “How long before you stop talking?Speak sense if you want us to answer!
3. Do you think we are mere animals?Do you think we are stupid?
4. You may tear out your hair in anger,but will that destroy the earth?Will it make the rocks tremble?
5. “Surely the light of the wicked will be snuffed out.The sparks of their fire will not glow.
6. The light in their tent will grow dark.The lamp hanging above them will be quenched.
7. The confident stride of the wicked will be shortened.Their own schemes will be their downfall.
8. The wicked walk into a net.They fall into a pit.
9. A trap grabs them by the heel.A snare holds them tight.
