and save those stumbling toward slaughter.

and braced the knees that were buckling.

They will throw their silver into the streets,
and their gold will seem like something filthy.
Their silver and gold will be unable to save them

and oil from flint-like rock,

in the crevices of the cliff,
let me see your face,
let me hear your voice;
for your voice is sweet,
and your face is lovely.

Is there any God but Me?
There is no other Rock; I do not know any.

cisterns cut out of rock, vineyards,
olive groves, and fruit trees in abundance.
They ate, were filled,
became prosperous, and delighted in Your great goodness.

The Rock—His work is perfect;
all His ways are entirely just.
A faithful God, without prejudice,
He is righteous and true.

Then Jeshurun became fat and rebelled—

so that it would not be covered.

in your home on the heights,
who say to yourself,
“Who can bring me down to the ground?”
