- 2 "How long will you say these things And the words of your mouth be a mighty wind?
- 3 "Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert what is right?
- 4 "If your sons sinned against Him Then He delivered them into the power of their transgression.
- 5 "If you would seek God And implore the compassion of the Almighty
- 6 If you are pure and upright Surely now He would rouse Himself for you And restore your righteous estate.
- 7 "Though your beginning was insignificant Yet your end will increase greatly.
- 8 "Please inquire of past generations And consider the things searched out by their fathers.
- 9 "For we are only of yesterday and know nothing Because our days on earth are as a shadow.
- 10 "Will they not teach you and tell you And bring forth words from their minds?
- 11 "Can the papyrus grow up without a marsh? Can the rushes grow without water?

- 14 Whose confidence is fragile And whose trust a spider's web.

- 16 "He thrives before the sun And his shoots spread out over his garden.
- 17 "His roots wrap around a rock pile He grasps a house of stones.
- 18 "If he is removed from his place Then it will deny him saying 'I never saw you.'
- 19 "Behold this is the joy of His way; And out of the dust others will spring.
- 20 "Lo God will not reject a man of integrity Nor will He support the evildoers.
- 21 "He will yet fill your mouth with laughter And your lips with shouting.
