13. That you turn your spirit against God, and let such words go out of your mouth?
14. What is man, that he should be clean? What is he who is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?
15. Behold, he puts no trust in his holy ones. Yes, the heavens are not clean in his sight;
16. how much less one who is abominable and corrupt, a man who drinks iniquity like water!
17. “I will show you, listen to me; that which I have seen I will declare
18. (which wise men have told by their fathers, and have not hidden it;
19. to whom alone the land was given, and no stranger passed among them):
20. the wicked man writhes in pain all his days, even the number of years that are laid up for the oppressor.
21. A sound of terrors is in his ears. In prosperity the destroyer shall come on him.
