10. If He passes by and throws someone in prisonor convenes a court, who can stop Him?
11. Surely He knows which people are worthless.If He sees iniquity, will He not take note of it?
12. But a stupid man will gain understandingas soon as a wild donkey is born a man!
13. As for you, if you redirect your heartand lift up your hands to Him in prayer —
14. if there is iniquity in your hand, remove it,and don’t allow injustice to dwell in your tents —
15. then you will hold your head high, free from fault.You will be firmly established and unafraid.
16. For you will forget your suffering,recalling it only as waters that have flowed by.
17. Your life will be brighter than noonday;its darkness will be like the morning.
18. You will be confident, because there is hope. You will look carefully about and lie down in safety.
19. You will lie down without fear,and many will seek your favor.
20. But the sight of the wicked will fail.Their way of escape will be cut off,and their only hope is their last breath.
