20 They are disappointed, though they were confident;they come there and are frustrated.
21 It is thus that you have now become for me;you see a terrifying thing and are afraid.
22 Have I said, “Give me something,make a bribe on my behalf from your possessions”?
23 Or “Deliver me from the hand of the enemy,redeem me from oppressors”?
24 Teach me, and I will be silent;make me understand how I have erred.
25 How painful honest words can be;yet how unconvincing is your argument!
26 Do you consider your words as proof,but the sayings of a desperate man as wind?
