⁵ Whoso is mocking at the poor Hath reproached his Maker, Whoso is rejoicing at calamity is not acquitted.

³¹ An oppressor of the poor reproacheth his Maker, And whoso is honouring Him Is favouring the needy.

²⁹ If I rejoice at the ruin of my hater, And stirred up myself when evil found him,

¹⁵ to rejoice with the rejoicing, and to weep with the weeping,

¹¹ In the day of thy standing over-against, In the day of strangers taking captive his force, And foreigners have entered his gates, And for Jerusalem have cast a lot, Even thou `art' as one of them!

¹² And -- thou dost not look on the day of thy brother, On the day of his alienation, Nor dost thou rejoice over sons of Judah, In the day of their destruction, Nor make great thy mouth in a day of distress.

¹³ Nor come into a gate of My people in a day of their calamity, Nor look, even thou, on its misfortune in a day of its calamity, Nor send forth against its force in a day of its calamity,

⁵ An abomination to Jehovah `is' every proud one of heart, Hand to hand he is not acquitted.

¹⁷ and whoever may have the goods of the world, and may view his brother having need, and may shut up his bowels from him -- how doth the love of God remain in him?

¹⁶ For -- as ye have drunk on My holy mount, Drink do all the nations continually, And they have drunk and have swallowed, And they have been as they have not been.

¹⁶ And I hastened not from feeding after Thee, And the desperate day I have not desired, Thou -- Thou hast known, The produce of my lips, before Thy face it hath been,

¹⁷ In the falling of thine enemy rejoice not, And in his stumbling let not thy heart be joyful,

¹⁸ Lest Jehovah see, and `it be' evil in His eyes, And He hath turned from off him His anger.

²¹ Whoso is despising his neighbour sinneth, Whoso is favouring the humble, O his happiness.

⁹ For zeal for Thy house hath consumed me, And the reproaches of Thy reproachers Have fallen upon me.
