{\b There is none that understandeth,\par\tab There is none that seeketh after God;}

For thou wilt save the afflicted people;\par\tab But the haughty eyes thou wilt bring down.
The wicked, in the pride of his countenance, {\i saith},\par\tab He will not require {\i it}.\par\tab All his thoughts are,\par\tab There is no God.
