⁶ In the abundance of power doth He strive with me? No! surely He putteth `it' in me.

²¹ Thy hand put far off from me, And Thy terror let not terrify me.

⁹ and He said to me, `Sufficient for thee is My grace, for My power in infirmity is perfected;' most gladly, therefore, will I rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of the Christ may rest on me:

¹⁰ wherefore I am well pleased in infirmities, in damages, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses -- for Christ; for whenever I am infirm, then I am powerful;

³⁵ And I have brought you in unto the wilderness of the peoples, And have been judged with you there face to face.

³³ I live -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, Do not I, with a strong hand, And with a stretched-out arm, And with fury poured out -- rule over you?

⁸ In measure, in sending it forth, thou strivest with it, He hath taken away by His sharp wind, In the day of an east wind,

⁴ Fury is not in Me; Who giveth Me a brier -- a thorn in battle? I step into it, I burn it at once.

³ In the day I called, when Thou dost answer me, Thou dost strengthen me in my soul `with' strength.

³³ If there were between us an umpire, He doth place his hand on us both.

³⁴ He doth turn aside from off me his rod, And His terror doth not make me afraid,

¹⁹ If of power, lo, the Strong One; And if of judgment -- who doth convene me?

⁴ Wise in heart and strong in power -- Who hath hardened toward Him and is at peace?
