10. His heart is made of ashes. His hope is cheaper than dirt. His life is not worth as much as his clay,
11. because he never came to know the God who shaped him, who breathed into him an active soul and a living spirit.
12. He thinks of human life as just a game, a market where he can make a profit. He believes that he must make money however he can, even by evil ways.
13. This man, who makes idols and fragile pots from the same clay, knows better than anyone else that he is sinning.
14. But the most foolish of all people, showing less sense than babies, were the enemies who oppressed your people, O Lord.
