⁷ Yet he shall perish for ever like his own dung: they which have seen him shall say, Where is he?

¹³ And thou sayest, How doth God know? can he judge through the dark cloud?

⁹ Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?

¹³ Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.

²⁹ The Lord is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.

¹⁵ And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

¹¹ Therefore thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will bring evil upon them, which they shall not be able to escape; and though they shall cry unto me, I will not hearken unto them.

⁴ Then shall they cry unto the Lord, but he will not hear them: he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved themselves ill in their doings.
