10:3 What will you do on judgment day,
when destruction arrives from a distant place?
To whom will you run for help?

to take plunder and to carry away loot,
to trample them down
10:7 But he does not agree with this,
his mind does not reason this way,
for his goal is to destroy,
and to eliminate many nations.
