And set two men, sons of Belial, before him, to bear witness against him, saying, Thou didst blaspheme God and the king. And then carry him out, and stone him, that he may die.

And there came in two men, children of Belial, and sat before him: and the men of Belial witnessed against him, even against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, Naboth did blaspheme God and the king. Then they carried him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones, that he died.

Then they suborned men, which said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and against God.

And set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law:

His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.

He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it.

Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.

Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.

And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.

Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:

And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;

The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of fools feedeth on foolishness.

How much more abominable and filthy is man, which drinketh iniquity like water?

Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth, though he hide it under his tongue;

Though he spare it, and forsake it not; but keep it still within his mouth:

What man is like Job, who drinketh up scorning like water?

They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart on their iniquity.
