4. He teareth himself in his anger: shall the earth be forsaken for thee? and shall the rock be removed out of his place?
5. Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out, and the spark of his fire shall not shine.
6. The light shall be dark in his tabernacle, and his candle shall be put out with him.
7. The steps of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down.
8. For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he walketh upon a snare.
9. The gin shall take him by the heel, and the robber shall prevail against him.

20. They that come after him shall be astonied at his day, as they that went before were affrighted.
21. Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked, and this is the place of him that knoweth not God.
