If I be wicked, woe to me; and if I be righteous, yet will I not lift up my head. I am full of confusion; therefore see thou my affliction;

For then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yes, thou shalt be steadfast, and shalt not fear:

There shall none of his food be left; therefore shall no man look for his goods.

All darkness shall be hid in his secret places: a fire not blown shall consume him; it shall go ill with him that is left in his tabernacle.

For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face to God.

On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold him: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him:

They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking.

Canst thou lift thy voice to the clouds, that abundance of waters may cover thee?
