1 Believe, you righteous, that the sinners will become a disgrace and perish on the day of unrighteousness. 2 Know this, sinners, that the Most High is mindful of your destruction, and the angels of heaven rejoice over your downfall. 3 What will you do, sinners, and where will you flee on the day of judgment, when you hear the voice of the prayer of the righteous? 4 You will fare like those against whom this word will be a testimony: 'You have been companions of sinners.' 5 In those days the prayers of the righteous will reach the Lord, and for you the days of your judgment will come. 6 All the words of your unrighteousness will be read out before the Great Holy One, and your faces will be covered with shame, and He will reject every work that is grounded on unrighteousness. 7 Woe to you, sinners, who live in the middle of the ocean and on dry land, whose memory is evil against you. 8 Woe to you who acquire silver and gold by unrighteousness and say: 'We have become rich with wealth and have possessions, and have acquired everything we have wanted.'⁠a 9 'And now let us do what we planned, for we have gathered silver, and the laborers in our houses are many, and our granaries are brimming full as with water.' 10 Yet like water your lies will flow away, for your wealth will not remain but will quickly leave you, for you acquired it all by unrighteousness, and you will be subject to a great curse.
