And Iyoḇ

And he took up his proverb and said, “The saying of Bilʽ

And he took up his proverb and said, “Balaq the sovereign of Mo’aḇ

The legs of the lame hang limp So is a proverb in the mouth of fools.

I open my mouth in a parable; I utter riddles of old,

I incline my ear to a parable; I expound my riddle on the lyre.

And he took up his proverb and said, “The saying of Bilʽ

Your weighty sayings are proverbs of ashes, your shields are shields of clay.
