11 If they listen and serve him,they spend their days in prosperity,their years in happiness.
12 But if they do not listen, they pass to the grave,they perish for lack of knowledge.
13 The impious in heart lay up anger;they do not cry for help when he binds them;
14 They will die young—their life among the reprobate.
15 But he saves the afflicted through their affliction,and opens their ears through oppression.
16 He entices you from distress,to a broad place without constraint;what rests on your table is rich food.
17 Though you are full of the judgment of the wicked,judgment and justice will be maintained.
