Isaiah 57

Isaiah 57:21
"There is no peace," says my God, "for the wicked."
Obviously, this isn't a statement meant for the short-term.  We all know people who have done terrible things and are completely guilt-free.  They seem to get away with anything, with no repercussions.

So, what is God talking about?  Obviously, he's looking at the long game, either over the course of years or a lifetime.  Their gains are fleeting, and do not lead to long-term contentment.  They always want more, or something else.  Also, they will face an eternity without peace, and there will be nothing they can do about it.
