And will you condemn Him who is most just? 18 Is it fit to say to a king, You are wicked? And to princes, You are ungodly? 19 How much less to Him who does not respect the persons of princes nor regard the rich more than the poor? For they all are the work of His hands. 20 In a moment they shall die, and the people shall be troubled at midnight and pass away; and the mighty shall be taken away without hand. 21 For His eyes are upon the ways of man, and He sees all his goings. 22 There is no darkness nor shadow of death where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves. 23 For He will not lay upon man more than right, that he should enter into judgment with God. 24 He shall break in pieces mighty men without number and set others in their place. 25 Therefore He knows their works, and He overturns them in the night, so that they are destroyed. 26 He strikes them as wicked men in the open sight of others, 27 Because they turned back from Him and would not consider any of His ways. 28 So that they cause the cry of the poor to come to Him, and He hears the cry of the afflicted. 29 When He gives quietness, who then can make trouble? And when He hides His face, who then can behold Him? Whether it be done against a nation or against a man only. 30 That the hypocrite may not reign, lest the people be ensnared. 31 Surely it is proper to say to God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend anymore; 32 That which I do not see, teach me; if I have done iniquity, I will do no more. 33 Should it be according to your mind? He will repay it, whether you refuse or whether you choose, and not I; therefore speak what you know.
