For He doth pain, and He bindeth up, He smiteth, and His hands heal.

And yet it is my comfort, (And I exult in pain -- He doth not spare,) That I have not hidden The sayings of the Holy One.

If I speak, my pain is not restrained, And I cease -- what goeth from me?

And he hath been reproved With pain on his bed, And the strife of his bones is enduring.
