Heb. a man of violence, "If¹ thou seestª° the oppressionª of the poor,ª° and violent² perverting¹ of judgmentª and justiceª in a province,ª marvelª° not¹ at¹ the matter:ª for¹ [he that is] higherª than¹¹ the highestª regardeth;ª° and [there be] higherª than¹ they.²" {Ecc 5:8}
choose:
"My son,ª walk²°¹ not¹ thou in the wayª with¹ them; refrainª° thy footª from their path:ª¹ ... And they¹ lay waitª° for their [own] blood;ª they lurk privilyª° for their [own] lives.ª" {Prv 1:15-18} + "To deliverª° thee from the wayª¹ of the evilª [man], from the manª¹ that speakethª° froward things;ª ... Whose¹ waysª [are] crooked,ª and [they] frowardª° in their paths:ª" {Prv 2:12-15} + "The wickedª desirethª° the netª of evilª [men]: but the rootª of the righteousª yieldethª° [fruit]." {Prv 12:12} + "Robª° not¹ the poor,ª because¹ he¹ [is] poor:ª neither¹ oppressª° the afflictedª in the gate:ª ... Lest¹ thou learnª° his ways,ª and getª° a snareª to thy soul.ª" {Prv 22:22-25}
