“You will be hidden from the scourge of the tongue,
And you will not be afraid of violence when it comes.

“You will laugh at violence and famine,
And you will not be afraid of wild beasts.

Although there is no violence in my hands,
And my prayer is pure.

“Behold, I cry, ‘Violence!’ but I get no answer;
I shout for help, but there is no justice.

“The Almighty—we cannot find Him;
He is exalted in power
And He will not do violence to justice and abundant righteousness.
