In context
18 Light he is on the face of the waters, Vilified is their portion in the earth, He turneth not the way of vineyards.
19 Drought--also heat--consume snow-waters, Sheol those who have sinned.
20 Forget him doth the womb, Sweeten on him doth the worm, No more is he remembered, And broken as a tree is wickedness.
21 Treating evil the barren who beareth not, And to the widow he doth no good,
22 And hath drawn the mighty by his power, He riseth, and none believeth in life.
23 He giveth to him confidence, and he is supported, And his eyes are on their ways.
24 High they were for a little, and they are not, And they have been brought low. As all others they are shut up, And as the head of an ear of corn cut off.
