19 The one who is righteous and mighty
    does not grant special favors to princes
        or prefer important people over poor people
            because his hands made them all.
20 They die suddenly in the middle of the night.
    People have seizures and pass away.
    Mighty people are taken away but not by human hands.
21 God’s eyes are on a person’s ways.
    He sees all his steps.
