3 I am being honest, God. Accept my word.There is no one else to support what I say.
4 You have closed their minds to reason;don't let them triumph over me now.
5 In the old proverb someone betrays his friends for money,and his children suffer for it.
6 And now people use this proverb against me;they come and spit in my face.
7 My grief has almost made me blind;my arms and legs are as thin as shadows.
8 Those who claim to be honest are shocked,and they all condemn me as godless.
9 Those who claim to be respectableare more and more convinced they are right.
