15 Behold, he puts no trust in his holy ones; yea, the heavens are not clean in his sight.
16 How much more abominable and filthy is man, who drinks iniquity like water?
17 I will show you, hear me; and that which I have seen I will declare;
18 Which wise men have told from their fathers, and have not hid it:
19 Unto whom alone the land was given, and no stranger passed among them.
20 The wicked man travails with pain all his days, and the number of years is hidden for the oppressor.
21 A dreadful sound is in his ears: in prosperity the destroyer shall come upon him.
