16 His roots will be dried up beneath.
    His branch will be cut off above.
17 His memory will perish from the earth.
    He will have no name in the street.
18 He will be driven from light into darkness,
    and chased out of the world.
19 He will have neither son nor grandson among his people,
    nor any remaining where he lived.
20 Those who come after will be astonished at his day,
    as those who went before were frightened.
21 Surely such are the dwellings of the unrighteous.
    This is the place of him who doesn’t know God.”

16 The roots [of the wicked] shall be dried up beneath, and above shall his branch be cut off and wither.

17 His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name in the street.

18 He shall be thrust from light into darkness and driven out of the world.

19 He shall neither have son nor grandson among his people, nor any remaining where he sojourned.

20 They [of the west] that come after [the wicked man] shall be astonished and appalled at his day, as they [of the east] that went before were seized with horror.

21 Surely such are the dwellings of the ungodly, and such is the place of him who knows not (recognizes not and honors not) God.
