22 Then let my arm fall from my shoulder,
Let my arm be torn from the socket.
23 For
adestruction
from God
is a terror to me,
And because of His magnificence I cannot endure.
24 “If
a I have made gold my hope,
Or said to fine gold, ‘
You are my confidence’;
25 aIf I have rejoiced because my wealth
was great,
And because my hand had gained much;
26 aIf I have observed the
1 sun when it shines,
Or the moon moving
in brightness,
27 So that my heart has been secretly enticed,
And my mouth has kissed my hand;
