“To the one in despair, kindness ¹  should come from his friend ²  even if ³  he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.

Let his own eyes see his destruction; ¹  let him drink of the anger of the Almighty.

then the Almighty himself will be your gold, ¹  and the choicest ²  silver for you.

when the Almighty ¹  was still with me and my children were ²  around me;

The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life. ¹ 

As for you, the one who lives ²  in the shelter of the sovereign One, ³  and resides in the protective shadow ⁴  of the mighty king ⁵  –

Does God pervert ¹  justice? ²  Or does the Almighty pervert ³  what is right?

But ¹  if you will look ²  to God, and make your supplication ³  to the Almighty,

“Can you discover ¹  the essence ²  of God? Can you find out ³  the perfection of the Almighty? ⁴ 

for he stretches out his hand against God, ¹  and vaunts himself ²  against the Almighty,

They were saying to God, ‘Turn away from us,’ and ‘What can the Almighty do to us?’ ¹ 

If you return to the Almighty, you will be built up; ¹  if you remove wicked behavior far from your tent,

Will he find delight ¹  in the Almighty? Will he call out to God at all times?

What then would be one’s lot from God above, one’s heritage from the Almighty ¹  on high?

But it is a spirit in people, the breath ¹  of the Almighty, that makes them understand.

“Will the one who contends ¹  with the Almighty correct him? ²  Let the person who accuses God give him an answer!”

When the sovereign judge ¹  scatters kings, ²  let it snow ³  on Zalmon!

My beloved is like a fragrant pouch of myrrh ¹  spending the night ²  between my breasts.

May the sovereign God ¹  bless you! May he make you fruitful and give you a multitude of descendants! ²  Then you will become ³  a large nation. ⁴
