15If I'd talked like this to others, I would have betrayed your people.
16So I thought about it and tried to understand, but it looked like a lot of hard work to me—
17until I went into God's Temple. Then I understood what happens to the wicked in the end.
18For you send them on a slippery path; you throw them down to destruction.
19How quickly they're destroyed! They come to a terrifying end.
20Like waking up from a dream, Lord—when you get up you will forget all about them!
