They are straw before the wind, chaff that the storm has stolen away.
In context
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. 19Eloah stores up his punishment for his sons — let him repay him, so that he knows it! 20Let his own eyes see his ruin; let him drink from the wrath of the Almighty.
