12 You have seen those things yourselves. So why do you continue your useless talk?
13 "Here's what God does to sinful people. Here's what those who are mean receive from the Mighty One.
14 All of their children will be killed with swords. They'll never have enough to eat.
15 A plague will kill those who are left alive. The widows of sinful men won't even sob over their own children.
16 Sinners might store up silver like dust and clothes like piles of clay.
17 But people who do what is right will wear those clothes. People who haven't done anything wrong will divide up that silver.
18 The house an evil person builds is like a moth's cocoon. It's like a hut that's made by someone on guard duty.
