19. who leads away priests as a spoil, and overthrows the mighty;
20. turning aside the lip of the trusted ones, and takes away the discernment of the elders;
21. pouring scorn on nobles, and loosens the girdle of the strong;
22. revealing deep matters out of darkness, and He brings the shadow of death to light;
23. making nations great, and He destroys them; spreading out the nations, and He leads them out.
24. turning aside the heart of the chiefs of the people of the earth, and He makes them wander in a pathless waste.
25. They grope in darkness, having no light, and He makes them stagger like a drunkard.
