18 Ref If thou hast seen a thief, Then thou art pleased with him, And with adulterers `is' thy portion.
19 Ref Thy mouth thou hast sent forth with evil, And thy tongue joineth deceit together,
20 Ref Thou sittest, against thy brother thou speakest, Against a son of thy mother givest slander.
21 Ref These thou didst, and I kept silent, Thou hast thought that I am like thee, I reprove thee, and set in array before thine eyes.
22 Ref Understand this, I pray you, Ye who are forgetting God, Lest I tear, and there is no deliverer.
23 Ref He who is sacrificing praise honoureth Me, As to him who maketh a way, I cause him to look on the salvation of God!
