3. What will ye do, ye sinners,
And whither will ye flee on that day of judgement,
When ye hear the voice of the prayer of the righteous ?
4. Yea, ye shall fare like unto them.
Against whom this word shall be a testimony
" Ye have been companions of sinner?."
5. And in those days the prayer of the righteous shall reach
unto the Lord,
And for you the days of your judgement shall come.
6. And all the words of your unrighteousness shall be read out
before the Great Holy One,
And your faces shall be covered with shame.
And He will reject every work which is grounded on un-
righteousness.
7. Woe to you, ye sinners, who live on the mid ocean and on
the dry land.
Whose remembrance is evil against you.
8. Woe to you who acquire silver and gold in unrighteousness
and say
:
" We have become rich with riches and have possessions ;
And have acquii'cd everything we have desired.
