“I will say to God, ‘Do not condemn me;
Let me know why You contend with me.

“You will pray to Him, and He will hear you;

For I am a father to Israel,
And Ephraim is My firstborn.”

So I gave my attention to the Lord God to seek Him by prayer and supplications, with fasting, sackcloth and ashes.

And I would be delivered forever from my Judge.

and while being reviled, He did not revile in return; while suffering, He uttered no threats, but kept entrusting Himself to Him who judges righteously;
