But God will break you down forever;
    he will snatch and (A)tear you from your tent;
    he will uproot you from (B)the land of the living. Selah
The righteous shall (C)see and fear,
    and shall (D)laugh at him, saying,
“See the man who would not make
    God his refuge,
but (E)trusted in the abundance of his riches
    and sought refuge in his own destruction!”[a]
