4 Shall they still speak false and hard things, And [their tongues] utter cruelty? How low shall they triumph and boast, Who [plot and] work iniquity?
5 Thy people they in pieces break; Thy heritage [do they] afflict.
6 Widows, strangers, and fatherless, They murder, or [by wrong] deject.
7 Yet say they, God doth not this see; Nor [doth he] it regard and know.
8 Ye brutish people understand, [Ye fools] when will ye wiser grow?
