And they said to the old men of of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he heard not to our voice; he is vile, and drinking to excess.

And I was vile yet above this and I was humbled in mine eyes, and with the maids of which thou spakest with them I shall be honored.

Behold, I was vile; what shall I turn back to thee? I put my hand to my mouth.

For this, thus said Jehovah, If thou wilt turn back, and I will turn thee back, thou shalt stand before me: and if thou shalt bring forth the precious from the vile thou shalt be as my mouth: they shall turn back to thee and thou shalt not turn back to them.
