17. Could one who hates justice govern the world?Will you condemn the mighty Righteous One,
18. who says to a king, “Worthless man! ”and to nobles, “Wicked men! ”?
19. God is not partial to princesand does not favor the rich over the poor,for they are all the work of His hands.
20. They die suddenly in the middle of the night;people shudder, then pass away.Even the mighty are removed without effort.
