6 ut ostenderet tibi secreta sapientiae et quod multiplex esset lex eius et intellegeres quod multo minora exigaris a Deo quam meretur iniquitas tua

12 vir vanus in superbiam erigitur et tamquam pullum onagri se liberum natum putat

12 "An idiot will become intelligent When the foal of a wild donkey is born a man.

13 tu autem firmasti cor tuum et expandisti ad eum manus tuas

14 si iniquitatem quod est in manu tua abstuleris a te et non manserit in tabernaculo tuo iniustitia

14 If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away, And do not let wickedness dwell in your tents;

15 tum levare poteris faciem tuam absque macula et eris stabilis et non timebis

15 "Then, indeed, you could lift up your face without moral defect, And you would be steadfast and not fear.

16 miseriae quoque oblivisceris et quasi aquarum quae praeterierint recordaberis

17 et quasi meridianus fulgor consurget tibi ad vesperam et cum te consumptum putaveris orieris ut lucifer

20 "But the eyes of the wicked will fail, And there will be no escape for them; And their hope is to breathe their last."
