27. My friends, I know that youare plotting against me.
28. You ask, “Where is the homeof that important personwho does so much evil?”
29. Everyone, near and far, agrees
30. that those who do wrongnever suffer disaster,when God becomes angry.
31. No one points out their sinor punishes them.
32. Then at their funerals,they are highly praised;
33. the earth welcomes them home,while crowds mourn.
34. But empty, meaningless wordsare the comfort you offer me.
