9. Thou hast sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.
10. Therefore snares are around thee, and sudden fear troubleth thee;
11. Or darkness, that thou canst not see; and abundance of waters cover thee.
12. Is not God in the hight of heaven? and behold the hight of the stars, how high they are!
13. And thou sayest, How doth God know? can he judge through the dark cloud?
14. Thick clouds are a covering to him, that he seeth not; and he walketh in the circuit of heaven.
15. Hast thou marked the old way which wicked men have trodden?
16. Who were cut down out of time, whose foundation was overflowed with a flood!
17. Who said to God, depart from us: and what can the Almighty do for them!
