Yahweh's Anger Against Arrogance

16 For all they which inform the people that they be in a right cause, such be deceivers. Such as men think also to be perfect among these, are but cast aways. 17 Therefore shall the LORD have no pleasure in their young men, neither favour their fatherless and widows. For they are all together hypocrites and wicked, and all their mouths speak folly. After all this shall not the LORD's wrath cease, but yet his hand shall be stretched out still. 18 For the ungodly burn, as a fire in the briers and thorns: And as it were out of a fire in a wood or a red bush, so ascendeth the smoke of their pride.
