Abominable people, such are the children of sinners who gather in the houses of the ungodly.

The inheritance of the sinners will perish; their prosperity will be a lasting reproach.

An ungodly father will be insulted by his children, for they hold him responsible for their disgrace.

Woe to you, wicked people who have forsaken the law of the Most High! At birth you are born to be cursed at death.

All that comes from the earth returns to the earth, and the ungodly from curse to ruin.

People grieve because their bodies will perish, but even the evil names of sinners will be blotted out.

Have regard for your reputation, for it will live on, of greater value than a thousand hoards of gold. Few perhaps are the days of the just man’s life but an honored name endures forever.
