11 For he knoweth vain men: he seeth iniquity also, even though he consider it not.
12 But vain man is void of understanding, yea, man is born as a wild ass's colt.
13 If thou set thine heart aright, and stretch out thine hands toward him;
14 If iniquity be in thine hand, put it far away, and let not unrighteousness dwell in thy tents;
15 Surely then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear:
16 For thou shalt forget thy misery; thou shalt remember it as waters that are passed away:
17 And thy life shall be clearer than the noonday; though there be darkness, it shall be as the morning.
