Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
14 If he set his heart upon himself, [If] he gather unto himself his spirit and his breath;
15 All flesh shall perish together, And man shall turn again unto dust.
16 If now [thou hast] understanding, hear this: Hearken to the voice of my words.
17 Shall even one that hateth justice govern? And wilt thou condemn him that is righteous [and] mighty?-
18 [Him] that saith to a king, [Thou art] vile, [Or] to nobles, [Ye are] wicked;
19 That respecteth not the persons of princes, Nor regardeth the rich more than the poor; For they all are the work of his hands.
20 In a moment they die, even at midnight; The people are shaken and pass away, And the mighty are taken away without hand.
