²⁰ I will speak, that I may be refreshed: I will open my lips and answer.

¹³ Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak, and let come on me what will.

¹⁹ Who is he that will plead with me? for now, if I hold my tongue, I shall give up the ghost.

² Therefore do my thoughts cause me to answer, and for this I make haste.

³ Suffer me that I may speak; and after that I have spoken, mock on.

⁶ Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things.

⁷ For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
