Be ye not as a horse -- as a mule, Without understanding, With bridle and bit, its ornaments, to curb, Not to come near unto thee.

A false thing is the horse for safety, And by the abundance of his strength He doth not deliver.

From Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, Both rider and horse have been fast asleep.

Not in the might of the horse doth He delight, Not in the legs of a man is He pleased.
