17“I will tellH2331 you, listenH8085 to me; And whatH2088 I have seenH2372 I will also declareH5608;18WhatH834 wiseH2450 menH2450 have toldH5046, And have not concealedH3582 from 1their fathersH1,19To whomH1992 aloneH905 the landH776 was givenH5414, And noH3808 alienH2114 passedH5674 amongH8432 them.20The wickedH7563 manH7563 writhesH2342 2in painH2342 allH3605 his daysH3117, And 3numberedH4557 are the yearsH8141 4storedH6845 up for the ruthlessH6184.215SoundsH6963 of 6terrorH6343 are in his earsH241; 7While at peaceH7965 the destroyerH7703 comesH935 upon him.22He does not believeH539 that he will 8returnH7725 from darknessH2822, And he is destinedH6822 for 9the swordH2719.23He wandersH5074 about for foodH3899, saying, ‘WhereH346 is it?’ He knowsH3045 that a dayH3117 of 10darknessH2822 is 11at handH3027.24DistressH6862 and anguishH4691 terrifyH1204 him, They overpowerH8630 him like a kingH4428 readyH6264 for the attackH3593,25BecauseH3588 he has stretchedH5186 out his handH3027 againstH413 GodH410 And conductsH1396 himself 12arrogantlyH1396 againstH413 13the AlmightyH7706.
