How
forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove? Do ye
- imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one
that
is desperate, which are as wind? Yea,
ye overwhelm the fatherless, and ye dig a pit for your friend. Now
therefore be content, look upon me; for it
is
evident unto you
if
I
lie.

or unfairness:
Re-turn,
I pray you,
let it not be iniquity; yea, re-turn again,
my righteousness is in it.
Is
there iniquity in my tongue?
cannot my
taste discern perverse things? . . .
**
And
the Lord said, My spirit shall not always
strive with man, for
that
he
also
is flesh: . . . **
**
. . . Is
there not an appointed time
to man
upon earth? are not his
days also like
the days of an hireling?. .
**
Keep
me
as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow
of
thy wings,
**
As a servant earnestly desireth the shadow,
and as an hireling looketh for the reward of his work: So am I
made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome
nights are appointed to me.
**
And
God made two great lights;
the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: . . .
**
And
lest
thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the
Lord thy God hath divided unto all nations under the
whole heaven.
**
And
he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold,. . .
**
Now
the
serpent was more subtil
than any beast of the field
which the Lord God had made.
**
Wherefore
is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter in soul; Which long
for death, but it
cometh
not; and dig for it
more than for hid treasures; Which rejoice
exceedingly, and are glad, when they can find the grave?
**
. . . I have dreamed a dream more;
and, behold, the sun
and
the
moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me.
**
If
I
have made gold my
hope,
or have said to the fine
gold, Thou art my confidence; If I rejoiced because my
wealth
was great, and because mine hand had gotten much; If I beheld
the sun when it
shined,
or the moon walking in brightness;
And my heart hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth
hath kissed my hand:
This also were an iniquity to be punished by the judge:
for I
should have denied
the God that is above.
***
Your new
moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth:
they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.
And
when ye
spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you:
yea,
when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your
hands are full of blood.
Wash you,
make you
clean; put away the evil
of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;
And
now,
O
inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you,
betwixt me and my vineyard.
What
could
have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done - in it? wherefore, when I
looked that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forth
wild
grapes?
**
And
now go
to; I
will tell you
what I will do to my vineyard: I
will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten up; and break down the wall thereof, and it shall be trodden down:
And
I
will
lay it waste: it
shall not be pruned, nor digged; but there shall come up briers and thorns: I
will also
command the clouds that they rain no
rain upon it.
For
the vineyard
of the Lord of hosts is the house of Is-ra-el,
and the men of Judah
his pleasant plant: and he
looked
for judgment, . . .
**
Behold,
their valiant ones shall cry
without: the ambassadors of peace
shall weep bitterly.
The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth: he
hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man.
**
but
behold oppression; for righteousness, - but behold a cry.

Or what man is there - of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
