34
Whether one does evil to them or good, they will not be able to repay it. They cannot set up a king or depose one.
35
Likewise they are not able to give either wealth or money; if one makes a vow to them and does not keep it, they will not require it.
36
They cannot save anyone from death or rescue the weak from the strong.
37
They cannot restore sight to the blind; they cannot rescue one who is in distress.
38
They cannot take pity on a widow or do good to an orphan.
