3 Bear with me while I speak;then after I have spoken, you may continue mocking.
4 As for me, is my complaint against a man?Then why shouldn’t I be impatient?
5 Look at me and shudder; put your hand over your mouth.
6 When I think about it, I am terrifiedand my body trembles in horror.
7 Why do the wicked continue to live,growing old and becoming powerful?
8 Their children are established while they are still alive, and their descendants, before their eyes.
9 Their homes are secure and free of fear; no rod from God strikes them.
