13 Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity; ye have eaten the fruit of lies: because thou didst trust in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men.
Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same.
There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
He that soweth iniquity shall reap vanity: and the rod of his anger shall fail.
For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: it hath no stalk; the bud shall yield no meal: if so be it yield, the strangers shall swallow it up.
Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.
Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.
They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
