8
With all flesh, both man and beast, and upon sinners seven times more,
9
are death and bloodshed and strife and sword, calamities, famine and affliction and plague.
10
All these were created for the wicked, and on their account the flood came.
11
All things that are from the earth turn back to the earth, and what is from the waters returns to the sea.
12
All bribery and injustice will be blotted out, but good faith will stand for ever.
