¹⁰ Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:

⁸ A man shall be commended according to his wisdom: but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.

⁷ But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.

² Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity.
