Your iniquities have turned away these [things], and your sins have withholden good [things] from you.

For among my people are found wicked [men]: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men.

As a cage is full of birds, so [are] their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich.
