11. Your light is darkened, so that you cannot see, and a flood of water covers you.
12. Is not God in the height of heaven? And behold the height of the stars, how high they are!
13. Therefore you say, How and what does God know [about me]? Can He judge through the thick darkness?
14. Thick clouds are a covering to Him, so that He does not see, and He walks on the vault of the heavens.
15. Will you pay attention and keep to the old way that wicked men trod [in Noah's time], [II Pet. 2:5.]
16. Men who were snatched away before their time, whose foundations were poured out like a stream [during the flood]?
17. They said to God, Depart from us, and, What can the Almighty do for or to us?
18. Yet He filled their houses with good [things]. But the counsel of the ungodly is far from me.
19. The righteous see it and are glad; and the innocent laugh them to scorn [saying],
20. Surely those who rose up against us are cut off, and that which remained to them the fire has consumed.
