Because I have called, and you refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;

Because they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:

The violence of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do justice.

Rob not the poor, because he is poor: neither oppress the afflicted in the gate:

My son, eat honey because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to your taste:

Fret not yourself because of evil men, neither be you envious at the wicked;

To show partiality is not good: because for a piece of bread that man will transgress.
