I have heard the reproof which putteth me to shame;\par\tab And the spirit of my understanding answereth me.
My words {\i shall utter} the uprightness of my heart;\par\tab And that which my lips know they shall speak sincerely.
My mouth shall speak wisdom;\par\tab And the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.
I will teach you concerning the hand of God;\par\tab That which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.
Therefore do my thoughts give answer to me,\par\tab Even by reason of my haste that is in me.
Be ye afraid of the sword:\par\tab For wrath {\i bringeth} the punishments of the sword,\par\tab That ye may know there is a judgment.\par
These ten times have ye reproached me:\par\tab Ye are not ashamed that ye deal hardly with me.
