CLV(i)
7 For what reason should the wicked live on? They develop and become masterful with potent power.
8 Their seed is established with them in their presence, And their offspring in front of their eyes.
9 Their houses remain in peace apart from alarm, And no club of Eloah is upon them.
10 Their bull passes semen and is never fruitless; Their young cow delivers and does not miscarry.
11 They let their babes go forth like a flock, And their children are dancing.
12 They lift up in song with tambourine and harp, And they rejoice to the sound of the shepherd's pipe.
13 They finish their days in good, And they settle down in a quiet moment to the unseen.
14 Yet they say to El, Go away from us, For we do not desire a knowledge of Your ways.
15 What is He Who Suffices that we should serve Him? And what benefit would we gain that we should make intercession to Him?
