22
Have I said, "Give me something? Offer a bribe from your wealth for me?
23
Rescue me from the hand of my enemy? Ransom me from the grip of the ruthless?"
24
Instruct me and I'll be quiet; inform me how I've erred.
25
How painful are truthful words, but what do your condemnations accomplish?
26
Do you intend to correct my words, to treat the words of a hopeless man as wind?
27
Would you even gamble over an orphan, barter away your friend?
28
Now look at me— would I lie to your face?
29
Turn! Don't be faithless. Turn now! I am righteous.
30
Is there wrong on my tongue, or can my mouth not recognize disaster?
