He does not believe that he will return from darkness, for a sword watches for him.

before I go and not return; to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;

a land of darkness and gloom, as the shadow of death, without any order; where it shines as darkness.

The light of the wicked shall be extinguished, and the flame of his fire shall not shine.

The light shall be dark in his tent, and his lamp beside him shall be extinguished.

He is driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.

But the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

And the king said to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

These are wells without water, clouds being driven by a tempest, for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.

raging waves of the sea, foaming up their own shame; wandering stars for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.

total darkness is his hidden treasure. An unfanned fire shall devour him; and any survivors in his tent shall tremble.

For Tophet was arranged in order of old; yea, for the king it is prepared. He has made it deep and large. He makes a fire with much wood. The breath of Jehovah kindles it like a torrent of brimstone.

Instead, it is thrown into the fire for fuel; the fire devours both ends of it, and its middle is burned. Is it useful for any work?

Therefore thus says the Lord Jehovah: Like the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so I will give up the inhabitants of Jerusalem;

and say to the forest of the South, Hear the Word of Jehovah! Thus says the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will kindle a fire in you, and it shall devour every green tree and every dry tree in you; the blazing flame shall not be quenched, and all faces from the south to the north shall be scorched by it.

All flesh shall see that I, Jehovah, have kindled it; it shall not be quenched.

Then He will also say to those on the left hand, Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire having been prepared for the devil and his angels:

If your hand makes you stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having two hands, to go to Gehenna, into the fire that shall never be quenched;

And if your foot makes you stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame, rather than having two feet, to be cast into Gehenna, into the fire that shall never be quenched;

And if your eye makes you stumble, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into the fire of Gehenna;

For everyone will be salted with fire, and every sacrifice will be salted with salt.

in flaming fire giving full vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

These shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power,

By the breath of God they perish, and by the breath of His nostrils they are destroyed.

But with righteousness He shall judge the poor, and shall decide with equity for the meek of the earth. And He shall strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, and with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked.

And out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He might strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
