Let the stars of its twilight be dark; let it look for light, but have none; neither let it see the dawning of the day:

They grope in the dark without light, and he makes them to stagger like a drunken man.

The light shall be dark in his tent, and his lamp shall be put out with him.

And you say, How does God know? can he judge through the dark cloud?

In the dark they dig through houses, which they had marked for themselves in the daytime: they know not the light.

None is so fierce that would dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me?

The sword of him that reaches him cannot avail: neither the spear, the dart, nor the javelin.
