13. The same thing happens to all who forget God.The hope of the godless dies.
14. His confidence is easily shattered.His trust is a spider’s web.
15. If one leans on his house, it collapses.If one holds on to it, it will not support his weight.
16. He is like a well-watered plant in the sunshine.The shoots spread over his garden.
17. Its roots weave through a pile of stones.They cling to a stone house.
18. But when it is uprooted from its place,⌊the ground⌋ denies it ⌊and says⌋, ‘I never saw you!’
19. That is its joy in this life,and others sprout from the same ground to ⌊take its place⌋.
