"Man,who is bornof woman,Is short-livedand fullof turmoil.
"Behold,He putsnotrustin His holyones,And the heavensare not purein His sight;

"In truthI knowthat this is so;But howcan a manbe in the rightbeforeGod?
With the pureYou showYourself pure,And with the crookedYou showYourself astute.
Then the moonwill be abashedand the sunashamed,For the LORDof hostswill reignon MountZionand in Jerusalem,And [His] glorywill be beforeHis elders.
