13. And thou shalt say, What does God know? How can he judge through the darkness?
14. Thick clouds are his hiding place, and he does not see; and he walks in the circuit of heaven.
15. Dost thou desire to keep the old way which wicked men have trodden?
16. Who were cut down out of time, whose foundation was overflown with a flood.
17. Who said unto God, Depart from us; and what can the Almighty do unto us?
18. He had filled their houses with good things. Therefore, the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
19. The righteous shall see it and be glad; and the innocent laughs them to scorn.
20. Whereas our substance was not cut down, when the fire had consumed the rest of them.
