²⁰ I speak, and there is refreshment to me, I open my lips and answer.

¹³ Keep silent from me, and I speak, And pass over me doth what?

¹⁹ Who `is' he that doth strive with me? For now I keep silent and gasp.

² Therefore my thoughts cause me to answer, And because of my sensations in me.

³ Bear with me, and I speak, And after my speaking -- ye may deride.

⁶ Hearken, for noble things I speak, And the opening of my lips `is' uprightness.

⁷ For truth doth my mouth utter, And an abomination to my lips `is' wickedness.
