BKR
Co zlého oběma rukama páchají, to aby za dobré počteno bylo. Kníže žádá, a soudce z úplatku soudí, a kdož veliký jest, ten mluví převrácenost duše své, a v hromadu ji pletou.

SRB26
Så att de ivrigt, med båda händerna, gör det onda. Fursten och domaren kräver mutor, och den mäktige kommer med sina onda begär. Så gör de gemensam sak.
SKB
Händerna [på dem som borde veta bättre] är skickliga (ivriga, fullt engagerade i) att göra det onda: Härskare (ledare i landet) och domare frågar efter mutor [och styr och dömer beroende på vem som betalar mest], den mäktige behöver bara tala vad han önskar (yttra sina onda begär), så konspirerar de tillsammans och förvrider sanningen. [Det hebreiska ordet för konspirerar har också betydelsen att tvinna en tråd. Här beskrivs nu hur härskaren, domaren och den mäktige, de inflytelserika i samhället, sammansvärjer sig som en tretvinnad tråd för att få igenom sin vilja på bekostnad av sanningen.]
