4 How long shall all wicked doers speak so disdainfully: and make such proud boasting?
5 They smite down thy people, O Lord: and trouble thine heritage.
6 They murder the widow and the stranger: and put the fatherless to death.
7 And yet they say, Tush, the Lord shall not see: neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.
8 Take heed, ye unwise among the people: O ye fools, when will ye understand?
9 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear: or he that made the eye, shall he not see?
10 Or he that nurtureth the heathen: it is he that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he punish?
11 The Lord knoweth the thoughts of man: that they are but vain.
12 Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Lord: and teachest him in thy law;
13 That thou mayest give him patience in time of adversity: until the pit be digged up for the ungodly.
