“Remember, now, whoever perished, being innocent?
    Or where were the upright cut off?
According to what I have seen, those who plow iniquity,
    and sow trouble,
    reap the same.
By the breath of God they perish.
    By the blast of his anger are they consumed.
10 The roaring of the lion,
    and the voice of the fierce lion,
    the teeth of the young lions, are broken.
11 The old lion perishes for lack of prey.
    The cubs of the lioness are scattered abroad.

“Stop and think! Do the innocent die?
    When have the upright been destroyed?

    and cultivate evil will harvest the same.
A breath from God destroys them.
    They vanish in a blast of his anger.
10 The lion roars and the wildcat snarls,
    but the teeth of strong lions will be broken.
11 The fierce lion will starve for lack of prey,
    and the cubs of the lioness will be scattered.
