6. Though their pride and powermay reach to the sky,
7. they will disappear like dust,and those who knew themwill wonder what happened.
8. They will be forgottenlike a dream
9. and vanish from the sightof family and friends.
10. Their children will have to repaywhat the parents tookfrom the poor.
11. Indeed, the wicked will dieand go to their gravesin the prime of life.
12. Sinners love the taste of sin;they relish every bite
13. and swallow it slowly.
14. But their food will turn sourand poison their stomachs.
15. Then God will make them losethe wealth they gobbled up.
