Iniquity » The workers of iniquity
Yahweh looks down from heaven upon the children of humankind to see whether there is one who has insight, one who cares about God. All have gone astray; they are altogether corrupt. There is not one who does good; there is not even one. All who do evil--do they not know, [they] who eat my people [as though] they were eating bread? They do not call on Yahweh.
Do not drag me away with [the] wicked or with [the] workers of evil, [who] speak of peace with their neighbors, while evil [is] in their heart. Give to them according to their work, even according to the evil of their deeds. Give to them according to the work of their hands; repay them their rightful due. Because they do not regard the works of Yahweh, nor the work of his hands, he will destroy them and not rebuild them.
For behold, your enemies, O Yahweh, for behold, your enemies will perish. All [the] workers of evil will be scattered.
