22 Did I ever say, ‘Bring
something to me’?
Or, ‘Offer a bribe for me from your wealth’?
23 Or, ‘Deliver me from the enemy’s hand’?
Or, ‘Redeem me from the hand of oppressors’?
24 “Teach me, and I will hold my tongue;
Cause me to understand wherein I have erred.
25 How forceful are right words!
But what does your arguing prove?
26 Do you intend to rebuke
my words,
And the speeches of a desperate one,
which are as wind?
27 Yes, you overwhelm the fatherless,
And you
aundermine your friend.
