Am I able to help my self? Is not my strength gone from me,

If I will justify myself, mine own mouth shall condemn me; if I will put forth my self for a perfect man, he shall prove me a wicked doer.

Though I washed my self with snowy water, and made mine hands never so clean,

Yea, the Almighty his own self shall be thine harvest, and the heap of thy money.

Wherefore I give mine own self the blame, and take repentance in the dust and ashes."
