If you truly speak the truth, you are the right judge, sons of humanity. For you do iniquity in your heart, on earth your hands intertwine iniquity. Having alienated the sinner from lies, having gone astray from the womb, I lie with the verb. Their rage is like a serpent, like a deaf asp, and one who stops his ears, so that he does not hear the voice of those who surround him, is possessed by wisdom. God will break their teeth in their mouth; the Lord has broken the limbs of lions. They will be humbled like flowing water, they will strain their bow until they are exhausted. As if the wax melted and was taken away, fire fell on them and you did not see the sun. First of all, understand that the thorns of your frame are alive, as they will devour me in wrath. The righteous will rejoice when he sees vengeance; he will wash his hands in the blood of the sinner. And the man says: If the righteous have fruit, then there is a God who judges them on earth.
