57:17 I was angry because of their sinful greed;
I attacked them and angrily rejected them, 1
yet they remained disobedient and stubborn. 2
57:20 But the wicked are like a surging sea
that is unable to be quiet;
its waves toss up mud and sand.
57:21 There will be no prosperity,” says my God, “for the wicked.”
