27 “Look, I know your[a] thoughts
and the schemes you devise against me.
28 For you say, ‘Where is the nobleman’s house,
and where are the tents in which the wicked dwell?’[b]
29 Do you not ask those traveling the roads,
and do you not take notice of their accounts?
30 Indeed, the wicked is spared from the day of disaster;
he is delivered from the day of wrath.
31 Who denounces his way to his face?
And who repays him for what he has done?
32 When[c] he is brought to the grave,
then[d] someone stands guard over the tomb.
33 The clods of the valley are sweet to him;
everyone will follow after him,
and before[e] him they are innumerable.[f]
