Your eyes are too good to look at evil; you cannot stand to see those who do wrong. So how can you put up with those evil people? How can you be quiet when the wicked swallow up people who are better than they are? You treat people like fish in the sea, like sea animals without a leader. The enemy brings them in with hooks. He catches them in his net and drags them in his fishnet. So he rejoices and sings for joy. The enemy offers sacrifices to his net and burns incense to worship it, because it lets him live like the rich and enjoy the best food. Will he keep on taking riches with his net? Will he go on destroying people without showing mercy?
