Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
14 If he set his heart on himself, If he gathered to himself his spirit and his breath;
15 All flesh would perish together, And man would turn again to dust.
16 "If now you have understanding, hear this. Listen to the voice of my words.
17 Shall even one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn him who is righteous and mighty?--
18 Who says to a king, `Vile!` Or to nobles, `Wicked!`
19 Who doesn`t respect the persons of princes, Nor regards 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, The mighty are taken away without hand.
