17. Causing counsellors to go away a spoil, And judges He maketh foolish.
18. The bands of kings He hath opened, And He bindeth a girdle on their loins.
19. Causing ministers to go away a spoil And strong ones He overthroweth.
20. Turning aside the lip of the stedfast, And the reason of the aged He taketh away.
