15 He holds back the waters and there is drought;he sends them forth and they overwhelm the land.
16 With him are strength and prudence;the misled and the misleaders are his.
17 He sends counselors away barefoot,makes fools of judges.
18 He loosens the belt of kings,ties a waistcloth on their loins.
19 He sends priests away barefoot,leads the powerful astray.
20 He silences the trusted adviser,takes discretion from the elders.
21 He pours shame on nobles,the waistband of the strong he loosens.
