17
|
When they are scorched, they dry up, when it is hot, they vanish from their place. |
18
|

22
|
"Have I ever said, 'Give me something, and from your fortune make gifts in my favor'? |
23
|
Or 'Deliver me from the enemy's power, and from the hand of tyrants ransom me'? |
24
|
"Teach me and I, for my part, will be silent; explain to me how I have been mistaken. |
25
|
How painful are honest words! But what does your reproof prove? |
26
|
Do you intend to criticize mere words, and treat the words of a despairing man as wind? |
27

28
|
"Now then, be good enough to look at me; and I will not lie to your face! |
