21 Now you too have proved to be of no help;you see something dreadful and are afraid.
22 Have I ever said, “Give something on my behalf,pay a ransom for me from your wealth,
23 deliver me from the hand of the enemy,rescue me from the clutches of the ruthless”?
24 ‘Teach me, and I will be quiet;show me where I have been wrong.
25 How painful are honest words!But what do your arguments prove?
26 Do you mean to correct what I say,and treat my desperate words as wind?
27 You would even cast lots for the fatherlessand barter away your friend.
