Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more:

Elihu spake moreover, and said,

This hast thou reckoned for judgment: Thou hast said -- 'My righteousness is more than God's?'

For you said, What advantage will it be unto you? and, What profit shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin?

And none said, 'Where is God my maker? Giving songs in the night,

for there is still more to be said on God’s behalf.

And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed?

Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,

Then Job answered the LORD, and said,

“[You said to me] ‘Who is this that darkens and obscures counsel [by words] without knowledge?’
Therefore [I now see] I have [rashly] uttered that which I did not understand,
Things too wonderful for me, which I did not know.

‘Hear, please, and I will speak;
I will ask You, and You instruct [and answer] me.’

For this cause I give witness that what I said is false, and in sorrow I take my seat in the dust.

And it was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.

And now, take seven oxen and seven sheep, and go to my servant Job, and give a burned offering for yourselves, and my servant Job will make prayer for you, that I may not send punishment on you; because you have not said what is right about me, as my servant Job has.

Then Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, went and did according as Jehovah had said unto them; and Jehovah accepted Job.

O my soul, thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;

To the saints that are on the earth, and to the excellent thou hast said, In them is all my delight.

As for me, I shall see your face in righteousness. I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with seeing your form. For the Chief Musician. By David the servant of Yahweh, who spoke to Yahweh the words of this song in the day that Yahweh delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul. He said,

{To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, the servant of the LORD, who spake unto the LORD the words of this song in the day that the LORD delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul: And he said,} I will love thee, O LORD, my strength.

When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.

Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me, and said, Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it.

For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.

For I said, Lest they shall rejoice over me: in the wavering of my foot they magnified against me.

{To the chief Musician, even to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David.} I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.

I made no sound, I said no word, even of good; and I was moved with sorrow.

My heart was burning in my breast; while I was deep in thought the fire was lighted; then I said with my tongue,

Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,

I hid not thy justice within my heart; I said thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I hid not thy mercy and thy truth to the great convocation.

I said, LORD, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.

As for my enemies, with malice they said, "When will he die and memory of his name perish?"

On stringed instruments. A contemplation by David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, "Isn't David hiding himself among us?"

{To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, A Psalm of David, when the Ziphims came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?} Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength.

And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.

For it was not my hater who said evil of me; that would have been no grief to me; it was not one outside the number of my friends who made himself strong against me, or I would have kept myself from him in a secret place;

God has said in his holy place, I will be glad: I will make a division of Shechem, and the valley of Succoth will be measured out.

Once has God said, twice has it come to my ears, that power is God's:

They strengthen for themselves an evil thing, They recount of the hiding of snares, They have said, 'Who doth look at it?'

Keeping the word which came from my lips, and which my mouth said, when I was in trouble.

I said in my heart, The Lord will not give ear to me:

The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring my people again from the depths of the sea:

I am on fire with passion for your house; and the hard things which are said about you have come on me.

When I put on the clothing of grief, they said evil of me.

For mine enemies said to me, and they watching my soul took counsel together,

I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.

They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.

Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.

I mention Rahab and Babylon to my followers. Here are Philistia and Tyre, along with Ethiopia. It is said of them, "This one was born there."

And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.

For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness shalt thou establish in the very heavens.

[God has said] “I have made a covenant with My chosen one;
I have sworn to David My servant,

Once You spoke in a vision to Your godly ones,
