Behold, all you yourselves have seen it; why then are you thus altogether vain?
Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldens you that you answer?
Are there not mockers with me? and does not my eye continue to see during their provocation?
Permit me that I may speak; and after I have spoken, mock on.
I will teach you by the hand of God: that which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.
This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors, which they shall receive from the Almighty.
There is a vanity which is done upon the earth; that there be just men, to whom it happens according to the work of the wicked; again, there be wicked men, to whom it happens according to the work of the righteous: I said that this also is vanity.
