17 Was a wicked person's light ever put out?Did one of them ever meet with disaster?Did God ever punish the wicked in anger
18 and blow them away like straw in the wind,or like dust carried away in a storm?
19 You claim God punishes a child for the sins of his father.No! Let God punish the sinners themselves;let him show that he does it because of their sins.
20 Let sinners bear their own punishment;let them feel the wrath of Almighty God.
21 When our lives are over,do we really care whether our children are happy?
22 Can anyone teach God,who judges even those in high places?
23-24 Some people stay healthy till the day they die;they die happy and at ease,their bodies well nourished.
