Before his day it shall be fulfilled, and his branch shall not be green;
the ones who were taken, but there was not time; their foundation was poured out by a river;
But You, O God, will bring them down to the pit of destruction; men of blood and deceit will not live out half their days; but I will trust in You.
The fear of Jehovah prolongs days, but the years of the wicked ones shall be cut short.
Do not be a very wicked one, and do not be a fool; why should you die and it not be your time?
When its boughs dry up, they are broken off. Women shall come and kindle them, for it is not a people of discernment. On account of this his Maker will not pity him, and his Former will not favor him.
Ephraim is stricken; their root is dried up; they shall bear no fruit. Yea, though they bear, yet I will kill the delight of their womb.
If not one abides in Me, he is cast out as the branch and is dried up; and they gather them, and they throw them into the fire, and they are burned.
