As smoke is driven away, so you shall drive them away; as wax melts before fire, so the wicked shall perish before God!
And the mountains will melt under him, and the valleys will split open, like wax before the fire, like waters poured down a steep place.
But the wicked will perish; the enemies of the Lord are like the glory of the pastures; they vanish—like smoke they vanish away.
Therefore they shall be like the morning mist or like the dew that goes early away, like the chaff that swirls from the threshing floor or like smoke from a window.
