51:26. I stretched forth my hands on high, and I bewailed my ignorance of her.
51:27. I directed my soul to her, and in knowledge I found her.
51:28. I possessed my heart with her from the beginning: therefore I shall not be forsaken.
51:29. My entrails were troubled in seeking her: therefore shall I possess a good possession.
51:30. The Lord hath given me a tongue for my reward: and with it I will praise him.
51:31. Draw near to me, ye unlearned, and gather yourselves together into the hours of discipline.
51:32. Why are ye slow and what do you say of these things? your souls are exceeding thirsty.
51:33. I have opened my mouth, and have spoken: buy her for yourselves without silver,
51:34. And submit your neck to the yoke, and let your soul receive discipline: for she is near at hand to be found.
51:35. Behold with your eyes how I have laboured a little, and have found much rest to myself.
