15–18“Are you going to persist in that tired old line
that wicked men and women have always used?
Where did it get them? They died young,
flash floods sweeping them off to their doom.
They told God, ‘Get lost!
What good is God Almighty to us?’

Will you keep to the old way
that wicked men have trod?
They were snatched away before their time;
their foundation was washed away.
They said to God, ‘Depart from us,’
and ‘What can the Almighty do to us?’

Will you continue on the ancient path
that wicked men have walked?
They were snatched away before their time,
and their foundations were washed away by a river.
They were the ones who said to God, “Leave us alone!”

“Will you continue on the old paths
where evil people have walked?
They were snatched away in the prime of life,
the foundations of their lives washed away.
For they said to God, ‘Leave us alone!
What can the Almighty do to us?’

Will you keep to the way of old
that the people of mischief have trod,
who were snatched away before their time,
whose foundation was washed away by a current?
Those who said to God, ‘Turn away from us,’
and ‘What can Shaddai do to us?’

Hast thou marked the old way
Which wicked men have trodden?
Which were cut down out of time,
Whose foundation was overflown with a flood:
Which said unto God, Depart from us:
And what can the Almighty do for them?
