Yes, look! Those far from you die; you destroy everyone who is unfaithful to you.

It is burned and cut down. They die because you are displeased with them.

But evil men will die; the Lord’s enemies will be incinerated – they will go up in smoke.

Surely one sees that even wise people die; fools and spiritually insensitive people all pass away and leave their wealth to others.

As smoke is driven away by the wind, so you drive them away. As wax melts before fire, so the wicked are destroyed before God.

They will perish, but you will endure. They will wear out like a garment; like clothes you will remove them and they will disappear.

Indeed, look at your enemies, O Lord! Indeed, look at how your enemies perish! All the evildoers are scattered!
