Lord, are Thine eyes upon lies(?) 3
And not on the truth[223]?
Thou hast smitten, they ail not,
Consumed them, they take not correction.
Their faces set harder than rock,
They refuse to return.
But I said, “Ah, they are the poor, 4
And therefore[224] the foolish!
“They know not the Way of the Lord,
The Rule of their God.
