the children of disobedience:

desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by
nature the children of wrath, even as others.

are become great, and waxen rich. 28 They are waxen

8. fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the
wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the
fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the
needy do they not judge.
