27 - Behold, I know your thoughts, and the devices [which] ye wrongfully imagine against me.
28 - For ye say, Where [is] the house of the prince? and where [are] the dwelling places of the wicked?
29 - Have ye not asked them that go by the way? and do ye not know their tokens,
30 - That the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction? they will be brought forth to the day of wrath.
31 - Who shall declare his way to his face? and who shall repay him [what] he hath done?
