15 Behold, he puts no trust in his holy ones; Yes, the heavens are not clean in his sight:
16 How much less one who is abominable and corrupt, A man who drinks iniquity like water!
17 "I will show you, listen to me; That which I have seen I will declare:
18 (Which wise men have told From their fathers, and have not hidden it;
19 To whom alone the land was given, And no stranger passed among them):
20 The wicked man travails with pain all his days, Even the number of years that are laid up for the oppressor.
21 A sound of terrors is in his ears; In prosperity the destroyer shall come on him.
