10 Who gives rain on the earth, and sends waters on the fields:

11 To set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted to safety.

12 He disappoints the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise.

13 He takes the wise in their own craftiness: and the counsel of the fraudulent is carried headlong.
