Who is this that hides counsel with ignorance of mind, foolish (as you said) and not knowing things aright in his thoughts?
I erred myself, and I did not speak according to what is right — many years and even so; and disease and those things commanded it, and painful folly, things which I did not see nor understand, many unspeakable wonders.
For you are a God of crooked counsel; nor could any mortal draw back your gifts.
But, O Lord, have mercy, and if any dreadful word has been spoken, let the storm-winds snatch it up and carry it off at once.
