“To the one in despair, kindness should come from his friend even if he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.

Let his own eyes see his destruction; let him drink of the anger of the Almighty.

then the Almighty himself will be your gold, and the choicest silver for you.

Indeed, God has made my heart faint; the Almighty has terrified me.

“Can you discover the essence of God? Can you find out the perfection of the Almighty?

“As surely as God lives, who has denied me justice, the Almighty, who has made my life bitter –

“Will the one who contends with the Almighty correct him? Let the person who accuses God give him an answer!”

When the sovereign judge scatters kings, let it snow on Zalmon!
