8 You ignorant people better learn quickly.You fools—when will you get some sense?
9 The one who made the ear,can’t he hear?The one who formed the eye,can’t he see?
10 The one who disciplines nations,can’t he punish?The one who teaches humans,doesn’t he know?
11 The Lord does indeed know human thoughts,knows that they are nothing but a puff of air.
12 The people you discipline, Lord, are truly happy—the ones you teach from your Instruction—
13 giving them relief from troubling timesuntil a pit is dug for the wicked.
14 The Lord will not reject his people;he will not abandon his very own possession.
