29. For, while they trust in idols, which are without a soul, vowing evil, they hope not to be harmed themselves.
30. Therefore, from both sides it will fittingly happen, because they have thought evil of God, paying attention to idols, and because they have sworn unjustly, in guile despising justice.
31. For swearing is not virtue, but sinning always comes around to a punishment according to the transgression of the unjust.
