3 PLS Noho ni savos kenae bade, Go no ke aeve fake?Noho ni nahan kede Go no ke aeve fanae ke aeve fake. BSB BSB: Why do You make me see iniquity? Why do You tolerate wrongdoing? Destruction and violence are before me. Strife is ongoing, and conflict abounds.
4 PLS One manae haisav haser, der bada haser one manae der wan ani naha saren. BSB BSB: Therefore the law is paralyzed, and justice never goes forth. For the wicked hem in the righteous, so that justice is perverted.

BSB BSB: Their horses are swifter than leopards, fiercer than wolves of the night. Their horsemen charge ahead, and their cavalry comes from afar. They fly like a vulture, swooping down to devour.
9 PLS One haim rigaf enefaran aeve fan ke sarimaken forog timur amin nake sarimake pasir kahanenih. BSB BSB: All of them come bent on violence; their hordes advance like the east wind; they gather prisoners like sand.
10 PLS Naha ni raja rigav ke aefe fan sin faimaken, sin bahadohomae isar min maimaken. Naha ni ba hatae it kafaimake. BSB BSB: They scoff at kings and make rulers an object of scorn. They laugh at every fortress and build up siege ramps to seize it.
11 PLS Manae naha ni arkema duv boton kahane nahasigi naha hasaibke kanae arkima. Habakun ani ke agansirke. BSB BSB: Then they sweep by like the wind and pass through. They are guilty; their own strength is their god.”

16 PLS One manae nahafni utum Myaokodonke finanae onahakomainke oke nahanae der disirke. BSB BSB: Therefore he sacrifices to his dragnet and burns incense to his fishing net, for by these things his portion is sumptuous and his food is rich.
