11 As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth osher (riches), and not by mishpat, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a naval (fool).
12 A glorious high kisse from the beginning is the place of Mikdasheinu (our Beis HaMikdash).
13 Hashem, the Mikveh Yisroel, all that forsake Thee shall be put to shame, and they that turn away from Me shall be written down in ha'aretz, because they have forsaken Hashem, the Makor Mayim Chayyim (Fountain of Living Waters).
14 Heal me, Hashem, and I shall be healed; hoshi'eini (save me), and I shall be saved; for Thou art my tehillah (praise).
15 Hinei, they say unto me, Where is the Devar Hashem? Let it come now.
16 As for me, I have not hastened away from being a ro'eh (shepherd) to follow Thee; neither did I lust for the woeful day; Thou knowest; that which came out of my lips was before Thee.
17 Be not a mechittah (terror) unto me; Thou art my refuge in the Yom Ra'ah (Day of Evil, Day of Disaster, Day of Doom).
