like chaff, like straw

Those who plunder,
Who rape, who pillage,
Who attack the people,
The children of God…
 
They will be like chaff, like straw,
Gathered for the God’s fires,
They will be burned up,
Their lives but a breath…
 
Those who stand righteous,
The people who obey You,
They will be redeemed, exalted,
They will be raised up…
 
They will dwell in the heights,
In the high places of God,
Their bread will be supplied,
Water will not fail them…
