Of the secret counsel of God dost thou hear? And withdrawest thou unto thee wisdom?

Thick clouds are a secret place to Him, And He doth not see;' And the circle of the heavens He walketh habitually,

And the eye of an adulterer Hath observed the twilight, Saying, 'No eye doth behold me.' And he putteth the face in secret.

And my heart is enticed in secret, And my hand doth kiss my mouth,

Hide them in the dust together, Their faces bind in secret.

Under shades he lieth down, In a secret place of reed and mire.
