Thou knewest this from everlasting when man was set upon the earth: For the rejoicing of the unjust drawing near, and the gladness of the profane even for a moment If his elevation shall go up to the heavens, and his head shall reach to the cloud; As his dung he shall perish forever: they seeing him shall say, Where is he? As a dream he shall fly away, and they shall not find him: and he shall flee away as the vision of the night The eye scanned him and shall not add; and his place shall no more look after him. The weak shall break his sons, and his hands shall turn back his wealth. His bones were full of his youth, and shall lie down with him in the dust. If evil shall be sweet in his mouth he will cover it under his tongue; He will spare over it, and forsake it not, and keep it back in the midst of his palate: His bread in his bowels was turned, the gall of asps in his midst He swallowed down riches, and he shall vomit it up, and God shall drive it out of his belly. He shall suck the poison of asps: the viper's tongue shall kill him. He shall not look upon the streams, the rivers, the torrents of honey and curdled milk Turning back the labor, and he shall not swallow down: according to the substance of his exchange and he shall not exult For he oppressed, forsaking the poor; he stripped the house and he will not build it up.

Wo! to him plundering an evil plunder to his house, to set his nest on high, to deliver from the hand of evil. Thou wilt counsel shame to thy house, cutting off many peoples, and causing thy soul to sin. For the stone from the wall shall cry out, and the cross-beam from the wood shall answer it. Wo! to him building a city with bloods, and preparing a city by iniquity. Behold, is it not from Jehovah of armies, and the peoples shall labor in a sufficiency of fire, and the peoples shall be wearied in a sufficiency of emptiness? For the earth shall be filled to know the glory of Jehovah as the waters shall cover over the sea? Wo! to him giving his neighbor drink, pouring out thy leathern bottle, and also to be drunken so as to look upon their nakedness. Thou wert satisfied with dishonor rather than honor: drink thou also and be uncircumcised: the cup of the right hand of Jehovah shall turn upon thee, and ignominy upon thy glory. For the violence of Lebanon shall cover thee, and the destruction of beasts shall terrify them from the bloods of man, and the violence of the earth, of the city, and all dwelling in it.
