Look, their prosperity is not in their own hands. The counsel of the wicked is far from me.
In context
14And they say to God, “Leave us alone! We have no wish to know your ways. 15What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? What would we gain by pressing him with prayer?” 16Look, their prosperity is not in their own hands. The counsel of the wicked is far from me. 17How often is the lamp of the wicked put out? How often does their ruin come upon them, and he deals out pains in his anger? 18They are straw before the wind, chaff that the storm has stolen away.
