⁵ “Indeed, the ^(B)light of the wicked goes out,
And the spark from his fire does not shine.
⁶ The light in his tent is ^(C)darkened,
And his lamp goes out above him.
⁷ His ^[b]vigorous stride is shortened,
And his ^(D)own plan brings him down.
⁸ For he is ^(E)thrown into the net by his own feet,
And he steps on the webbing.
⁹ A snare seizes him by the heel,
And a trap snaps shut on him.
¹⁰ A noose for him is hidden in the ground,
And a trap for him on the pathway.
¹¹ All around ^(F)sudden terrors frighten him,
And ^(G)harass him at every step.
¹² His strength is ^(H)famished,
And disaster is ready at his side.
^13 [c]It devours parts of his skin,
The firstborn of death ^(I)devours his ^[d]limbs.
¹⁴ He is ^(J)torn from ^[e]the security of his tent,
And ^[f]they march him before the king of ^(K)terrors.
^15 [g]Nothing of his dwells in his tent;
^(L)Brimstone is scattered on his home.
¹⁶ His ^(M)roots are dried below,
And his ^(N)branch withers above.
^17 (O)The memory of him perishes from the earth,
And he has no name abroad.
^18 [h]He is driven from light ^(P)into darkness,
And ^(Q)chased from the inhabited world.
¹⁹ He has no ^(R)offspring or descendants among his people,
Nor any survivor where he resided.
²⁰ Those in the west are appalled at ^(S)his ^[i]fate,
And those in the east are seized with horror.
²¹ Certainly these are the ^(T)dwellings of the wicked,
And this is the place of him who does not know God.”
