16 His roots dry up belowand his branches wither above.
17 The memory of him perishes from the earth;he has no name in the land.
18 He is driven from light into the realm of darknessand is banished from the world.
19 He has no offspring or descendants among his people,no survivor where once he lived.
20 People of the west are appalled at his fate;those of the east are seized with horror.
21 Surely such is the dwelling of an evil man;such is the place of one who does not know God.’
