9. I am pure without peysha; I am clean; neither is there avon in me [Yn 8:46].
10. Yet He findeth tenuot (occasions) against me, He counteth me for his oyev,
11. He putteth my raglayim in the stocks, He watcheth all my orkhot.
12. But in this thou art not right; I will answer thee, that Eloah is greater than enosh.
13. Why dost thou contend against Him? For He giveth not account of any of His matters.
14. For El speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not.
15. In a chalom, in a chezyon lailah, when deep sleep falleth upon anashim, in slumberings upon the mishkav (bed),
16. Then He openeth the ozen anashim, and sealeth their admonition
17. That He may turn them aside from their deeds, and hide pride from gever (man).
18. He keepeth back his nefesh from the shachat, and his life from the overthrow of the sword.
19. He is chastened also with pain upon his mishkav, and the continual strife in his atzmot;
20. So that his life abhorreth lechem, and his nefesh dainty food.
21. His basar is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his atzmot that were not seen stick out.
