2 “I know that You ^acan do everything,
And that no purpose of Yours can be withheld from You. ‡

3 You asked, ^a‘Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?’
Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand,
^bThings too wonderful for me, which I did not know. ‡

5 “I have ^aheard of You by the hearing of the ear,
But now my eye sees You. ‡

6 Therefore I ^aabhor myself,
And repent in dust and ashes.”  ‡
