8 They corrupt other, and speak of wicked blasphemy: their talking
is against the most High.
9 For they stretch forth their mouth unto the heaven: and their
tongue goeth through the world.
10 Therefore fall the people unto them: and thereout suck they no
small advantage.
11 Tush, say they, how should God perceive it: is there knowledge
in the most High?
12 Lo, these are the ungodly, these prosper in the world, and
these have riches in possession: and I said, Then have I cleansed
my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency.
13 All the day long have I been punished: and chastened every
morning.
14 Yea, and I had almost said even as they: but lo, then I should
have condemned the gene ration of thy children.
