But who can refrain from speaking?H5254H1697H3811H3201H6113H44053"Behold you have admonished many, And you have strengthened weak hands.H3256H7227H2388H7504H30274"Your words have helped the tottering to stand, And you have strengthened feeble knees.H4405H6965H3782H553H3766H12905"But now it has come to you, and you are impatient; It touches you, and you are dismayed.H935H3811H5060H9266"Is not your fear [of God] your confidence, And the integrity of your ways your hope?H3374H3690H8615H8537H18707"Remember now, who [ever] perished being innocent? Or where were the upright destroyed?H2142H6H5355H375H3477H35828"According to what I have seen, those who plow iniquity And those who sow trouble harvest it.H7200H2790H205H2232H5999H71149"By the breath of God they perish, And by the blast of His anger they come to an end.H5397H433H6H7307H639H361510"The roaring of the lion and the voice of the [fierce] lion, And the teeth of the young lions are broken.H7581H738H6963H7826H8127H3715H542111"The lion perishes for lack of prey, And the whelps of the lioness are scattered.H3918H6H1097H2964H3833H1121H650412"Now a word was brought to me stealthily, And my ear received a whisper of it.H1697H1589H241H3947H810213"Amid disquieting thoughts from the visions of the night, When deep sleep falls on men,H5587H2384H3915H8639H5307H58214Dread came upon me, and trembling, And made all my bones shake.H6343H7122H7461H7230H6106H634215"Then a spirit passed by my face; The hair of my flesh bristled up.H7307H2498H6440H8185H1320H556816"It stood still, but I could not discern its appearance; A form [was] before my eyes; [There was] silence, then I heard a voice:H5975H5234H4758H8544H5869H1827H8085H696317'Can mankind be just before God?
