4 For truly my words are not false: one that is perfect in knowledge is with thee.
5 Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any: he is mighty in strength of understanding.
6 He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth to the afflicted their right.
7 He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings upon the throne he setteth them for ever, and they are exalted.
8 And if they be bound in fetters, and be taken in the cords of affliction;
9 Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions, that they have behaved themselves proudly.
10 He openeth also their ear to instruction, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.
