⁶ That you inquire after my iniquity, And search after my sin?

¹⁶ But now you number my steps. Don't you watch over my sin?

¹⁴ If I sin, then you mark me. You will not acquit me from my iniquity.

¹⁵ If I am wicked, woe to me. If I am righteous, I still shall not lift up my head, Being filled with disgrace, And conscious of my affliction.

¹⁶ If my head is held high, you hunt me like a lion. Again you show yourself powerful to me.

¹⁷ You renew your witnesses against me, And increase your indignation on me. Changes and warfare are with me.

¹⁵ Break the arm of the wicked. As for the evil man, seek out his wickedness until you find none.

²¹ Won't God search this out? For he knows the secrets of the heart.

³⁴ Also in your skirts is found the blood of the souls of the innocent poor: you did not find them breaking in; but it is because of all these things.

¹² It will happen at that time, that I will search Jerusalem with lamps, and I will punish the men who are settled on their dregs, who say in their heart, "Yahweh will not do good, neither will he do evil."

²⁴ But Jesus didn't trust himself to them, because he knew everyone,

²⁵ and because he didn't need for anyone to testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.

⁵ Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each man will get his praise from God.
