And his heart inclines toward wickedness:
To practice ungodliness and to speak error against the Lord,
To keep the hungry person unsatisfied
And to withhold drink from the thirsty.

He devises wicked schemes
To destroy the afflicted with slander,
Even though the needy one speaks what is right.

And by noble plans he stands.
