6So they wear their pride like a necklace, they put on the garment of wrong,
7their eyes stand out with fatness, their heart swells with riotous fancies.
8Their speech is mocking and evil, condescending and crooked their speech.
9They have set their mouth in the heavens, while their tongue struts about on the earth.
10Small wonder that people resort to them, and drink deep draughts of their lore.
11“How does God know?” they say, “And has the Most High any knowledge?”
12See! These are the godless, with wealth and ease ever increasing.
13Yes, in vain have I kept my heart pure, and washed my hands in innocence;
14for all the day long was I plagued not a morning but I was chastised.
