2How long will it bee, ere you make an ende of words? Marke, and afterwards we will speake. 3Wherefore are wee counted as beasts, and reputed vile in your sight? 4He teareth himselfe in his anger: shall the earth be forsaken for thee? and shall the rocke bee remooued out of his place? 5Yea, the light of the wicked shalbe put out, and the sparke of his fire shall not shine. 6The light shalbe darke in his tabernacle, and his candle shalbe put out with him.
