"so that the godless man should not rule, and not lay snares for the people."
— Job 34:30, NET Bible
“That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared.”
“That the godless man reign not, That there be none to ensnare the people. ”
“that the godless man may not reign, that there be no one to ensnare the people.”
“Who maketh a man that is a hypocrite to reign for the sins of the people.”

But if God is quiet, who can condemn him? If he hides his face, then who can see him? Yet he is over the individual and the nation alike,
so that the godless man should not rule, and not lay snares for the people.

Teach me what I cannot see. If I have done evil, I will do so no more.’
