Haven't I held my peace even of long time, and you don't fear me? 12 I will declare your righteousness; and as for your works, they shall not profit you. 13 When you cry, let those who you have gathered deliver you; but the wind shall take them, a breath shall carry them all away: but he who takes refuge in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain."
