14 aHe permitted no one to do them wrong;
Yes,
bHe rebuked kings for their sakes,
15 Saying, “Do not touch My anointed ones,
And do My prophets no harm.”
16 Moreover
aHe called for a famine in the land;
He destroyed all the
bprovision of bread.
17 aHe sent a man before them—
Joseph—
who bwas sold as a slave.
18 aThey hurt his feet with fetters,
1He was laid in irons.
19 Until the time that his word came to pass,
aThe word of the
Lord tested him.
