"If someone ventures to talk with you, will you be grieved? But who can withhold himself from speaking?
Behold, you have instructed many, you have strengthened the weak hands.
Your words have supported him who was falling, You have made firm the feeble knees.

Between morning and evening they are destroyed. They perish forever without any regarding it.
Isn't their tent cord plucked up within them? They die, and that without wisdom.'
