19 They that went to The man considered them, and they that went to Saba wayted for them.

20 But they were confounded in their hope, they came thyther and were ashamed.

21 Euen such truely are ye, nowe that ye see my miserie ye are afrayde.

22 Did I desire you to bring vnto me, or to geue me any of your substaunce?

23 To deliuer me from the enemies hand, or to saue me from the hande of the tyrauntes?

24 Teache me, and I will hold my tong: and wherin I haue erred; cause me to vnderstande.

25 How strong are the wordes of trueth? and which of you can rebuke or reproue them?

26 Do ye imagine to reproue wordes, that the talke of the afflicted shoulde be as the winde?

27 Ye fall vpon the fatherlesse, and digge a pit to ouerthrowe your owne frende.

28 And therfore be content, & loke now vpon me, and I will not lye before your face.

29 Turne I pray you, be indifferent iudges: turne agayne, and ye shall see myne vngiltinesse,

30 (6:29) whether there be any vnrighteousnes in my tongue, or vayne wordes in my mouth.
