10Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: Far be it from God, that he should do wickedness, And from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.
11For the work of a man will he render unto him, And cause every man to find according to his ways.
12Yea, of a surety, God will not do wickedly, Neither will the Almighty pervert justice.
13Who gave him a charge over the earth? Or who hath disposed the whole world?
14If he set his heart upon himself, [If] he gather unto himself his spirit and his breath;
15All flesh shall perish together, And man shall turn again unto dust.
16If now [thou hast] understanding, hear this: Hearken to the voice of my words.
