God

The riches which he hath swallowed, he shall vomit up, and God shall draw them out of his belly.

May his belly be filled, that God may send forth the wrath of his indignation upon him, and rain down his war upon him.

The offspring of his house shall be exposed, he shall be pulled down in the day of God's wrath.

This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the inheritance of his doings from the Lord.

Their houses are secure and peaceable, and the rod of God is not upon them.

Who have said to God: Depart from us, we desire not the knowledge of thy ways.

Who is the Almighty, that we should serve him? and what doth it profit us if we pray to him?

How often shall the lamp of the wicked be put out, and a deluge come upon them, and he shall distribute the sorrows of his wrath?

God shall lay up the sorrow of the father for his children: and when he shall repay, then shall he know.

His eyes shall see his own destruction, and he shall drink of the wrath of the Almighty.

Shall any one teach God knowledge, who judgeth those that are high?

Can man be compared with God, even though he were of perfect knowledge?

What doth it profit God if thou be just? or what dost thou give him if thy way be unspotted?

Shall he reprove thee for fear, and come with thee into judgment:

Dost not thou think that God is higher than heaven, and is elevated above the height of the stars?

And thou sayst: What doth God know? and he judgeth as it were through a mist.

The clouds are his covert, and he doth not consider our things, and he walketh about the poles of heaven.

Who said to God: Depart from us: and looked upon the Almighty as if he could do nothing:

Whereas he had filled their houses with good things: whose way of thinking be far from me.

Submit thyself then to him, and be at peace: and thereby thou shalt have the best fruits.

Receive the law of his mouth, and lay up his words in thy heart.

If thou wilt return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, and shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacle.

And the Almighty shall be against thy enemies, and silver shall be heaped together for thee.

Then shalt thou abound in delights in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face to God.

Thou shalt pray to him, and he will hear thee, and thou shalt pay vows.
