I have heard the rebuke that reproaches me, And the spirit of my understanding causes me to answer.
My words come from my upright heart; My lips utter pure knowledge.
My mouth shall speak wisdom, And the meditation of my heart shall give understanding.
“I will teach you about the hand of God; What is with the Almighty I will not conceal.
“Therefore my anxious thoughts make me answer, Because of the turmoil within me.
Be afraid of the sword for yourselves; For wrath brings the punishment of the sword, That you may know there is a judgment.”
These ten times you have reproached me; You are not ashamed that you have wronged me.
