Doth God pervert justice? Or doth the Almighty pervert righteousness?
For he is cast into a net by his own feet, And he walketh upon the toils.
A gin shall take (him) by the heel, (And) a snare shall lay hold on him.
A noose is hid for him in the ground, And a trap for him in the way.
As God liveth, who hath taken away my right, And the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul:
Yea, of a surety, God will not do wickedly, Neither will the Almighty pervert justice.
To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not.
When they shall go, I will spread my net upon them; I will bring them down as the birds of the heavens; I will chastise them, as their congregation hath heard.
