2:9 He watches over 1 his holy ones, 2
but the wicked are made speechless in the darkness,
for it is not by one’s own strength that one prevails.
5:16 Thus the poor have hope,
and iniquity 3 shuts its mouth. 4
107:42 When the godly see this, they rejoice,
and every sinner 5 shuts his mouth.
2:23 “How can you say, ‘I have not made myself unclean.
I have not paid allegiance to 6 the gods called Baal.’
Just look at the way you have behaved in the Valley of Hinnom! 7
Think about the things you have done there!
You are like a flighty, young female camel
that rushes here and there, crisscrossing its path. 8
2:26 Just as a thief has to suffer dishonor when he is caught,
so the people of Israel 9 will suffer dishonor for what they have done. 10
So will their kings and officials,
their priests and their prophets.
3:19 Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under 11 the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world may be held accountable to God.
