18 He looseth the bond of kings, and girdeth their loins with a girdle.

26 He striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others;
7 The wicked are overthrown, and are not: but the house of the righteous shall stand.

25 Therefore he knoweth their works, and he overturneth them in the night, so that they are destroyed.
7 And I will feed the flock of slaughter, even you, O poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.
2 And though they say, The LORD liveth; surely they swear falsely.

7 For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them.
14 They are dead, they shall not live; they are deceased, they shall not rise: therefore hast thou visited and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish.
3 Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
2 Therefore do my thoughts cause me to answer, and for this I make haste.
1 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
2 Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
19 Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.
26 To cause it to rain on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, wherein there is no man;
24 He taketh away the heart of the chief of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way.
