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?

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.

20  for the evil man has no future;

the ^jlamp of the wicked will be put out.
