14 He aquí, él derribará, y no será edificado: encerrará al hombre, y no habrá quien le abra.

15 He aquí, él detendrá las aguas, y se secarán; él las enviará, y destruirán la tierra.

16 Con él está la fortaleza y la existencia; suyo es el que yerra, y el que hace errar.

17 El hace andar á los consejeros desnudos [de consejo], y hace enloquecer á los jueces.

18 El suelta la atadura de los tiranos, y ata el cinto á sus lomos.
