Simplified Meaning:

The quote paints a picture of people who have done wrong, being at the mercy of a very upset and powerful figure, which is God. It suggests that such people are in a scary and risky situation because they have angered someone with great power who can punish them. Imagine a child who has misbehaved and is now facing their very angry parent, knowing they might be punished for what they did. The idea is to show how serious and dangerous it is to do bad things when the one who can decide your fate is displeased. In life, this could be seen as a warning to be mindful of your actions and decisions because angering someone with authority can lead to severe consequences. It's like in workplaces when an employee does something unethical, they risk facing the wrath of their boss, leading to job loss or other penalties. Applying it to everyday life means striving to do what's right and just to avoid facing this kind of fearsome judgment.
