22 After my words they didn’t speak again. My speech fell on them.

23 They waited for me as for the rain. Their mouths drank as with the spring rain.

24 I smiled on them when they had no confidence. They didn’t reject the light of my face.

25 I chose out their way, and sat as chief. I lived as a king in the army, as one who comforts the mourners.
