Read this passage and open each verse for the full verse feed and commentary tools.

18“They are insignificant on the surface of the water;

Their plot of land on the earth is cursed.

They do not turn toward the vineyards.

19“Dryness and heat snatch away the snow waters,

As Sheol snatches those who have sinned.

20“A mother will forget him;

The maggot feeds sweetly until he is no longer remembered.

And injustice will be broken like a tree.

21“He wrongs the infertile woman,

And does no good for the widow.

22“But He drags off the mighty by His power;

He rises, but no one has assurance of life.

23“He provides them with security, and they are supported;

And His eyes are on their ways.

24“They are exalted a little while, then they are gone;

Moreover, they are brought low, and like everything they are gathered up;

Like the heads of grain they wither.

25“Now if it is not so, who can prove me a liar,

And make my speech worthless?”
