+God withdraweth not his anger; the proud helpers stoop under him:

He taketh away the understanding of the chiefs of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a pathless waste.

Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth and he hide it under his tongue,

Will he reason with thee for fear of thee? Will he enter with thee into judgment?

He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent under them.

For he looketh to the ends of the earth, he seeth under the whole heaven.

They bray among the bushes; under the brambles they are gathered together:

He sendeth it forth under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the earth.

Who provideth for the raven his food, when his young ones cry unto God, and they wander for lack of meat?

He lieth under lotus-bushes, in the covert of the reed and fen:

Who hath first given to me, that I should repay him? Whatsoever is under the whole heaven is mine.

His under parts are sharp potsherds: he spreadeth a threshing-sledge upon the mire.
