11 For He repays man’s work to him, and makes man to find a reward according to his path.
12 The truth is, Ěl does not do wrong, and the Almighty does not twist right-ruling.
13 Who has assigned to Him the earth? And who has laid out all the world?
14 If He sets His heart on him, should He gather to Himself his spirit and his breath,
15 all flesh would expire together and man return to dust.
16 If you have understanding, hear this! Give ear to the sound of my words:
17 Should the one who hates right-ruling govern? Or would you declare a most righteous one wrong?
