SurelyYou setthem in slipperyplaces;You castthem downto destruction.
Let their waybe darkand slippery,With the angelof the LORDpursuingthem.
But the wickedwill perish;And the enemiesof the LORDwill be like the gloryof the pastures,They vanish--like smokethey vanishaway.
Whenhe falls,he will not be hurledheadlong,Becausethe LORDis the One who holdshis hand.
But You, O God,will bringthem downto the pitof destruction;Menof bloodshedand deceitwill not liveout halftheir days.But I will trustin You.
That when the wickedsproutedup likegrassAnd allwho didiniquityflourished,It [was only] that they might be destroyedforevermore.
But You, O LORD,are on highforever.
He has broughtbacktheir wickednessupon them And will destroythem in their evil;The LORDour Godwill destroythem.
"Thereforetheir waywill be like slipperypathsto them, They will be drivenawayinto the gloomand falldownin it; For I will bringcalamityupon them, The yearof their punishment,"declaresthe LORD.
Vengeanceis Mine, and retribution,In due timetheir footwill slip;For the dayof their calamityis near,And the impendingthingsare hasteningupon them.'
Thesewill paythe penaltyof eternaldestruction,awayfrom the presenceof the Lordand from the gloryof His power,
