8 Understand, you stupid people!You fools, when will you be wise?
9 Does the one who shaped the ear not hear?The one who formed the eye not see?
10 Does the one who guides nations not rebuke?The one who teaches man not have knowledge?
11 The Lord knows the plans of man;they are like a fleeting breath.
12 Blessed the one whom you guide, Lord,whom you teach by your instruction,
13 To give rest from evil days,while a pit is being dug for the wicked.
14 For the Lord will not forsake his people,nor abandon his inheritance.
