The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment.
His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.
The Lord is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgai´on. Selah.
Blessings are upon the head of the just: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.
He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honor.
And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, even the whole seed of E´phra-im.
As for his father, because he cruelly oppressed, spoiled his brother by violence, and did that which is not good among his people, lo, even he shall die in his iniquity.
Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth,
Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
