American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
The proud and haughty man, scoffer is his name;He worketh in the arrogance of pride.
The desire of the sluggard killeth him;For his hands refuse to labor.
There is that coveteth greedily all the day long;But the righteous giveth and withholdeth not.
The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination:How much more, when he bringeth it {Or, to atone for wickedness}with a wicked mind!
A false witness shall perish;But the man that heareth shall speak so as to endure.
A wicked man hardeneth his face;But as for the upright, {Another reading is, he considereth his way.}he establisheth his ways.
There is no wisdom nor understandingNor counsel against Jehovah.
The horse is prepared against the day of battle;But {Or, deliverance}victory is of Jehovah.
yea, Father, {Or, that}for so it was well-pleasing in thy sight.
Thus saith Jehovah, Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: what manner of house will ye build unto me? and what place shall be my rest?
For all these things hath my hand made, and so all these things came to be, saith Jehovah: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and that trembleth at my word.
He that killeth an ox is as he that slayeth a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as he that breaketh a dog's neck; he that offereth {Or, a meal-offering}an oblation, as he that offereth swine's blood; he that {Hebrew: maketh a memorial of.}burneth frankincense, as he that blesseth an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations:
I also will choose their {Or, mockings}delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did that which was evil in mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delighted not.
