Now therefore be pleased to look at me, for surely I shall not lie to your face.
Should your boastings make men hold their shalom? When you mock, shall no man make you ashamed?
But you are forgers of lies. You are all physicians of no value.
If it isn't so now, who will prove me a liar, and make my speech worth nothing?*
surely my lips shall not speak unrighteousness, neither shall my tongue utter deceit.
My words shall utter the uprightness of my heart. That which my lips know they shall speak sincerely.
For truly my words are not false. One who is perfect in knowledge is with you.
