2. If one assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved? But who can withhold himself from speaking?
3. Behold, thou hast instructed many, And thou hast strengthened the weak hands.
4. Thy words have upholden him that was falling, And thou hast made firm the feeble knees.
5. But now it is come unto thee, and thou faintest; It toucheth thee, and thou art troubled.
6. Is not thy fear of God thy confidence, And the integrity of thy ways thy hope?
7. Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? Or where were the upright cut off?
8. According as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, And sow trouble, reap the same.
