8 Your wickedness affects a person like yourself,and your righteousness another human being.
9 People cry out because of severe oppression;they shout for help because of the arm of the mighty.
10 But no one asks, “Where is God my Maker, who provides us with songs in the night,
11 who gives us more understanding than the animals of the earthand makes us wiser than the birds of the sky? ”
12 There they cry out, but He does not answer,because of the pride of evil men.
13 Indeed, God does not listen to empty cries,and the Almighty does not take note of it —
14 how much less when you complain that you do not see Him,that your case is before Himand you are waiting for Him.
