All of you have seen it yourselves; why then have you become altogether vain?
Have windy words no limit? Or what provokes you that you keep on talking?
Surely there are mockers around me, and my eye dwells on their provocation.
Bear with me, and I will speak; then after I have spoken, mock on.
I will teach you concerning the hand of God; that which is with the Almighty I will not conceal.
“This is the portion of the wicked with God and the heritage that oppressors receive from the Almighty:
There is a vanity that takes place on earth, that there are righteous people who are treated according to the conduct of the wicked and wicked people who are treated according to the conduct of the righteous. I said that this also is vanity.
