5  “Indeed, the ^glight of the wicked is put out,

and the flame of his fire does not shine.

17  “How often is it that the lamp of the wicked is put out?

That their calamity comes upon them?

That God¹ distributes pains in his anger?

15  From the wicked their ^blight is withheld,

and their uplifted arm is ^cbroken.

9  The light of the righteous rejoices,

but the ^elamp of the wicked will be put out.

4  Haughty eyes and a proud heart,

the lamp¹ of the wicked, are sin.
