1Call now, if there be any that will answer thee; and to which of the saints wilt thou turn?

3I have seen the foolish taking root: but suddenly I cursed his habitation.

אֲשֶׁר קְצִירֹו ׀ רָעֵב יֹאכֵל וְאֶל־מִצִּנִּים יִקָּחֵהוּ וְשָׁאַף צַמִּים חֵילָם׃ (2291)

6Although affliction cometh not forth of the dust, neither doth trouble spring out of the ground;

9Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number:

עֹשֶׂה גְדֹלֹות וְאֵין חֵקֶר נִפְלָאֹות עַד־אֵין מִסְפָּר׃ (2275)

10Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the fields:

מֵפֵר מַחְשְׁבֹות עֲרוּמִים וְלֹא־תַעֲשֶׂינָה יְדֵיהֶם תּוּשִׁיָּה׃ (3104)

13He taketh the wise in their own craftiness: and the counsel of the froward is carried headlong.

לֹכֵד חֲכָמִים בְּעָרְמָם וַעֲצַת נִפְתָּלִים נִמְהָרָה׃ (2000)

14They meet with darkness in the day time, and grope in the noonday as in the night.
