“Remember now, (A)who ever perished being innocent?
Or where were the upright wiped out?
According to what I have seen, (B)those who plow wickedness
And those who sow trouble harvest it.
By (C)the breath of God they perish,
And (D)by the wind of His anger they come to an end.
10 The (E)roaring of the lion and the voice of the fierce lion,
And the teeth of the young lions are broken.
11 The (F)lion perishes for lack of prey,
And the (G)whelps of the lioness are scattered.

Sinners don’t live long

Think! What innocent person has ever perished?

    by a breath of his nostril they are annihilated.

    yet the teeth of lions are shattered;
11         the lion perishes without prey,
            and its cubs are scattered.
