New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 Is not your wickedness great?
There is no end to your iniquities.(A)
6 For you have exacted pledges from your family for no reason
and stripped the naked of their clothing.(B)
7 You have given no water to the weary to drink,
and you have withheld bread from the hungry.(C)
8 The powerful possess the land,
and the favored live in it.
9 You have sent widows away empty-handed,
and the arms of the orphans you have crushed.[a](D)
10 Therefore snares are around you,
and sudden terror overwhelms you,
11 or darkness so that you cannot see;
a flood of water covers you.(E)
12 “Is not God high in the heavens?
See the highest stars, how lofty they are!
13 Therefore you say, ‘What does God know?
Can he judge through the deep darkness?(F)
14 Thick clouds enwrap him, so that he does not see,
and he walks on the dome of heaven.’
15 Will you keep to the old way
that the wicked have trod?
16 They were snatched away before their time;
their foundation was washed away by a flood.(G)
