4For there is no regard to their death, nor is there strength in their stripes.
5They are not in the labour of men: neither shall they be scourged like other men.
6Therefore pride hath held them fast: they are covered with their iniquity and their wickedness.
7Their iniquity hath come forth, as it were from fatness: they have passed into the affection of the heart.
8They have thought and spoken wickedness: they have spoken iniquity on high.
9They have set their mouth against heaven: and their tongue hath passed through the earth.
