Surely You put them in slippery places. You hurled them down to destruction.
May their way be dark and slippery, with the angel of Adonai pursuing them.
“Therefore their way will be for them like slippery places in the gloom. They will be driven away and fall there, for I will bring calamity on them, even the year of their visitation.” It is a declaration of Adonai.
Vengeance is Mine, and payback, for the time when their foot staggers. Surely their day of disaster is near— what is prepared rushes on them.
He will repay them for their wickedness, and will annihilate them in their evil. Adonai our God will annihilate them.
Cast your burden on Adonai, and He will sustain you. He will never let the righteous be shaken.
They will pay the price of eternal ruin, away from the presence of the Lord and the glory of His power—
A brutish man does not know, nor does a fool understand.
For the wicked will perish, and the enemies of Adonai will be like the beauty of the fields— they will vanish—vanish like smoke.
Though he stumble, he will not fall headlong, for Adonai is holding his hand.
Though the wicked spring up like grass, and all evildoers flourish, it is only to be ruined forever.
