11 He repays people according to their deeds.He treats people as they deserve.
12 Truly, God will not do wrong.The Almighty will not twist justice.
13 Did someone else put the world in his care?Who set the whole world in place?
14 If God were to take back his spiritand withdraw his breath,
15 all life would cease,and humanity would turn again to dust.
16 “Now listen to me if you are wise.Pay attention to what I say.
17 Could God govern if he hated justice?Are you going to condemn the almighty judge?
