6. For you took collateral from your brothers without cause,stripping off their clothes and leaving them naked.
7. You gave no water to the thirstyand withheld food from the famished,
8. while the land belonged to a powerful manand an influential man lived on it.
9. You sent widows away empty-handed,and the strength of the fatherless was crushed.
10. Therefore snares surround you,and sudden dread terrifies you,
11. or darkness, so you cannot see,and a flood of water covers you.
12. Isn’t God as high as the heavens?And look at the highest stars — how lofty they are!
