Read Full Chapter
They die in youth, and their life is among the unclean.**
He delivereth the poor in his affliction, and openeth their ears in oppression.*
Even so would he have removed thee out of the strait into a broad place, where there is no straitness; and that which should be set on thy table should be full of fatness.*
But thou hast fulfilled the judgment of the wicked: judgment and justice take hold on thee.*
Because there is wrath, beware lest he take thee away with his stroke: then a great ransom cannot deliver thee.*
Will he esteem thy riches? no, not gold, nor all the forces of strength.
Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place.
