⁷ The violence of the wicked will sweep them away,
    because they refuse to do what is just.
⁸ The way of the guilty is crooked,
    but the conduct of the pure is right.

¹⁰ The soul of the wicked desires evil;
    his neighbor finds no mercy in his eyes.

²⁷ The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination;
    how much more when he brings it with evil intent.

²⁹ A wicked man puts on a bold face,
    but an upright man considers^[a] his ways.
