3. Does the Almighty delight in your innocence?Does he gain when you perfect your ways?
4. Does he rebuke you for your piety,bring you in for judgment?
5. Isn’t your wickedness massive,your iniquity endless?
6. You have taken payments from your family for no reason;stripped the naked, leaving no clothes;
7. denied water to the thirsty,withheld bread from the starving.(
8. The powerful own land;the favored live in it.)
9. You have sent widows away empty;crushed orphans’ resources.
10. For this reason, snares surround you;sudden dread brings panic to you
11. or a darkness that you can’t see;rushing water will cover you.
12. Isn’t God in the heights of heaven;see how high the topmost stars are?
