        but His eyes are always on their ways.
²⁴     They may make their mark—to be sure—in a brief moment of glory,
        but then just as quickly the wicked are gone, like the rest of humanity,
        like heads of grain cut off and dried up.
²⁵     Now, if this is not the truth, then call me a liar
        and count all this talk for nothing.
