17. Then I went into your sanctuary, O God,and I finally understood the destiny of the wicked.
18. Truly, you put them on a slippery pathand send them sliding over the cliff to destruction.
19. In an instant they are destroyed,completely swept away by terrors.
20. When you arise, O Lord,you will laugh at their silly ideasas a person laughs at dreams in the morning.
21. Then I realized that my heart was bitter,and I was all torn up inside.
