²⁷ Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from Jehovah, and the justice `due' to me is passed away from my God?

² As God liveth, who hath taken away my right, And the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul:

⁴ But I said, I have labored in vain, I have spent my strength for nought and vanity; yet surely the justice `due' to me is with Jehovah, and my recompense with my God.

⁷ And shall not God avenge his elect, that cry to him day and night, and `yet' he is longsuffering over them?

⁸ I say unto you, that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

¹⁴ But Zion said, Jehovah hath forsaken me, and the Lord hath forgotten me.
