11 He teaches more to us than to wild animals. He makes us wiser than the birds of the air.'
12 He doesn't answer sinful people when they cry out to him. That's because they are so proud.
13 In fact, God doesn't listen to their empty cries. The Mighty One doesn't pay any attention to them.
14 So he certainly won't listen to you. When you say you don't see him, he won't hear you. He won't listen when you state your case to him. He won't pay attention even if you wait for him.
15 When you say his anger never punishes sin, he won't hear you. He won't listen when you say he doesn't pay any attention to evil.
16 So you say things that don't mean anything. You use a lot of words, but you don't know what you are talking about."
