The imaginations of the heart transgressed; 8 They do corruptly, And they speak in the wickedness of oppression, From on high they speak. 9 They have set in the heavens their mouth, And their tongue walketh in the earth. 10 Therefore do His people return hither, And waters of fulness are wrung out to them. 11 And they have said, `How hath God known? And is there knowledge in the Most High?' 12 Lo, these `are' the wicked and easy ones of the age, They have increased strength.
