15 If in his holy ones God places no confidence,and if the heavens are not without blame in his sight,
16 How much less so is the abominable and corrupt:people who drink in iniquity like water!
17 I will show you, if you listen to me;what I have seen I will tell—
18 What the wise relateand have not contradicted since the days of their ancestors,
19 To whom alone the land was given,when no foreigner moved among them:
20 The wicked is in torment all his days,and limited years are in store for the ruthless;
21 The sound of terrors is in his ears;when all is prosperous, a spoiler comes upon him.
