15 Behold, he withholds the waters, and they dry up; Again, he sends them out, and they overturn the earth.
16 With him is strength and wisdom; The deceived and the deceiver are his.
17 He leads counselors away stripped. He makes judges fools.
18 He loosens the bond of kings, He binds their loins with a belt.
19 He leads priests away stripped, And overthrows the mighty.
20 He removes the speech of those who are trusted, And takes away the understanding of the elders.
21 He pours contempt on princes, And loosens the belt of the strong.
