A rascallywitnessmakesa mockeryof justice,And the mouthof the wickedspreadsiniquity.
Now the restof the actsof Omriwhichhe didand his mightwhichhe showed,are they not writtenin the Bookof the Chroniclesof the Kingsof Israel?
and seattwoworthlessmenbeforehim, and let them testifyagainst him, saying,You cursedGodand the king.'Then takehim out and stonehim to death."
Then the twoworthlessmencamein and satbeforehim; and the worthlessmentestifiedagainst him, even against Naboth,beforethe people,saying,"NabothcursedGodand the king."So they tookhim outsidethe cityand stonedhim to deathwith stones.
Howmuchlessone who is detestableand corrupt,Man,who drinksiniquitylike water!
"Whatmanis like Job,Whodrinksup derisionlike water,
He saysto himself,"Godhas forgotten;He has hiddenHis face;He will neverseeit."
His waysprosperat alltimes;Your judgmentsare on high,out of his sight;As for allhis adversaries,he snortsat them.
The mindof the intelligentseeksknowledge,But the mouthof foolsfeedson folly.
A worthlessmandigsup evil,Whilehis wordsare like scorchingfire.
Ceaselistening,my son,to discipline,[And you will] strayfrom the wordsof knowledge.
They feedon the sinof My peopleAnd directtheir desiretowardtheir iniquity.
