“They all come for violence;
Their faces are set like the east wind.
They gather captives like sand.
10 They scoff at kings,
And princes are scorned by them.
They deride every stronghold,
For they heap up earthen mounds and seize it.
11 Then his [a]mind changes, and he transgresses;
He commits offense,
(A)Ascribing this power to his god.”
