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

That their calamity comes upon them?

That God¹ distributes pains in his anger?

9  ^dThe light of the righteous rejoices,

but ^ethe lamp of the wicked will be put out.

20  ^gIf one curses his father or his mother,

^hhis lamp will be put out in utter darkness.

20  for the evil man has no ^qfuture;

^ythe lamp of the wicked will be put out.

28  For it is you who light my ^zlamp;

the Lord my God lightens my darkness.
