and I am driven to nought, and I knew not. As a work beast I am made with thee;
Why be we areckoned as beasts, and why have we been foul before thee?
Do not ye be made as an horse and mule; to which is none under-standing. Lord, constrain thou the cheeks of them with a barnacle and bridle; that they nigh not to thee.
when he shall see wise men dying; the unwise man and the fool shall perish together. And they shall leave their riches to aliens;
God, thou knowest mine unknow-ing; and my trespasses be not hid from thee.
An unwise man shall not know; and a fool shall not understand these things.
When sinners come forth, as hay; and all they appear, that work wicked-ness. That they perish into the world of world;
I am the most foolish of men; and the wisdom of men is not with me.
I said in mine heart of the sons of men, that God should prove them, and show that they be like beasts.
An ox knew his lord, and an ass knew the cratch of his lord; but Israel knew not me, and my people under-stood not.
