It is all the same; that is why I say,
‘He destroys both the blameless and the wicked.’

Innocent or wicked, it is all the same to God.
That’s why I say, ‘He destroys both the blameless and the wicked.’
When a plague sweeps through,
he laughs at the death of the innocent.
The whole earth is in the hands of the wicked,
and God blinds the eyes of the judges.
If he’s not the one who does it, who is?

This is one thing, therefore I said it,
He destroyeth the perfect and the wicked.
