10 They scoff at kings,and they scorn rulers.They deride every stronghold,for they build up siege ramps to capture it.
11 Then their mind changes,and they transgress and commit offense;their own power is their god.
12 Are You not from everlasting,O Lord my God, my Holy One? We will not die.O Lord, You have appointed them for judgment;and You, O Rock, have established them for correction.
13 Your eyes are too pure to look on evil,and You cannot look on wickedness.Why do You look on those who deal treacherously,and hold Your tongue when the wickeddevours the man who is more righteous than he?
14 You make men like fish of the sea,like crawling things that have no ruler.
15 They bring all of them up with a hook,they catch them in their net;they gather them in their dragnet.Therefore they rejoice and are glad.
16 Therefore they sacrifice to their netand burn incense to their dragnet;for by them their portion is extravagant,and their food plentiful.
