³⁷ I would declare unto him the number of my steps; As a prince would I go near unto him.

²⁸ And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for thou hast striven with God and with men, and hast prevailed.

¹⁵ For we have not a high priest that cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but one that hath been in all points tempted like as `we are, yet' without sin.

¹⁶ Let us therefore draw near with boldness unto the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace to help `us' in time of need.

¹² in whom we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith in him.

¹² Who can discern `his' errors? Clear thou me from hidden `faults'.

³ Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore have I uttered that which I understood not, Things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.

⁴ Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak; I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.

⁵ I had heard of thee by the hearing of the ear; But now mine eye seeth thee:

⁶ Wherefore I abhor `myself', And repent in dust and ashes.

²⁵ I chose out their way, and sat `as' chief, And dwelt as a king in the army, As one that comforteth the mourners.

¹⁶ But now thou numberest my steps: Dost thou not watch over my sin?

¹⁵ Behold, he will slay me; I have no hope: Nevertheless I will maintain my ways before him.

³ If he be pleased to contend with him, He cannot answer him one of a thousand.

³ His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the children of the east.

¹⁹ Hereby shall we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our heart before him:

²⁰ because if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.

²¹ Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness toward God;
