8. The Lord shows that I am innocent, and he is close to me.So who can accuse me?If there is someone, let us go to court together.If someone wants to prove I have done wrong,he should come and tell me.
9. It is the Lord God who helps me.So who can prove me guilty?All those who try will become useless like old clothes.Moths will eat them.
10. Who among you fears the Lordand obeys his servant?That person may walk in the darkand have no light.Then let him trust in the Lord.Let him depend on his God.
11. But instead, some of you want to light your own fires.You want to make your own light.So, go, walk in the light of your fires.Trust your own light to guide you.But this is what you will receive from me:You will lie down in a place of pain.
