you claim, ‘I am innocent. His anger is sure to turn away from me.’ But I will certainly judge you because you have said, ‘I have not sinned.’

I know your thoughts very well, the schemes by which you would wrong me.

even though you know that I am not wicked and that there is no one who can rescue from your power?
