Do you wish to torment a windblown leaf and chase after dry chaff?

How often are they like straw before the wind, and like chaff swept away by a whirlwind?

the chief men refrained from talking and covered their mouths with their hands;

I chose the way for them and sat as their chief; I lived like a king among his troops; I was like one who comforts mourners.

Arrows do not make it flee; slingstones become like chaff to it.
