Можно ли сказать царю: «ты — нечестивец», и князьям: «вы — беззаконники»?
Is he not the One who says to kings, ‘You are worthless,’ and to nobles, ‘You are wicked,’
who says to a king, ‘Worthless one,’ and to nobles, ‘Wicked man,’
Who says to a king, ‘Worthless one,’ To nobles, ‘Wicked ones’;
For he says to kings, ‘You are wicked,’ and to nobles, ‘You are unjust.’
Is it fit to say to a king, Thou art wicked? and to princes, Ye are ungodly?
Is it fitting to say to a king, ‘You are worthless,’ And to nobles, ‘You are wicked’?
Shall one say to a king, Belial? to nobles, Wicked?
