"Do you think
H4941
this to be your right,
H559
or do you say,
H6664
‘My righteousness
H410
is more than God's,'
3
H559
That you ask,
H5532
‘What advantage
H3276
will it be to you? What profit
H2403
shall I have, more than if I had sinned?'
5
H5027
Look
H8064
to the heavens,
H7200
and see.
H7789
See
H7834
the skies,
H1361
which are higher than you.
6
H2398
If you have sinned,
H6466
what effect do
H6588
you have against him? If your transgressions
H7231
are multiplied,
H6213
what do you do to him?
7
H6663
If you are righteous,
H5414
what do you give
H3947
him? Or what does he receive
H3027
from your hand?
8
H7562
Your wickedness
H376
may hurt a man
H6666
as you are, and your righteousness
H1121
may profit a son
H120
of man.

"By reason of the multitude
H6217
of oppressions
H7768
they cry out.
H2199
They cry
H2220
for help by reason of the arm
H7227
of the mighty.
10
H559
But none says,
H433
‘Where is God
H6213
my Maker,
H5414
who gives
H2158
songs
H3915
in the night,
11
H502
who teaches
H929
us more than the animals
H776
of the earth,
H2449
and makes us wiser
H5775
than the birds
H8064
of the sky?'
12
H6817
There they cry,
H6030
but none gives answer,
H6440
because
H1347
of the pride
H7451
of evil men.
13
H410
Surely God
H8085
will not hear
H7723
an empty
H7706
cry, neither will the Almighty
H7789
regard it.
14
H637
How
H559
much less when you say
H7789
you don't see
H1779
him. The cause
H6440
is before
H2342
him, and you wait for him!
