18 “They are [a](A)insignificant on the surface of the water;
Their plot of land on the earth is (B)cursed.
They do not turn [b]toward the (C)vineyards.
19 Dryness and heat (D)snatch away the snow waters,
As [c](E)Sheol snatches those who have sinned.
20 A [d](F)mother will forget him;
The (G)maggot feeds sweetly until he is (H)no longer remembered.
And injustice will be broken (I)like a tree.
