7. because I am innocent,and he would say,“I now set you free!”
8. I cannot find God anywhere—in front of or behind me,
9. to my left or my right.God is always at work,though I never see him.
10. But he knows what I am doing,and when he tests me,I will be pure as gold.
11-12. I have never refused to followany of his commands,and I have always treasuredhis teachings.
13. But he alone is God,and who can oppose him?God does as he pleases,
14. and he will do exactlywhat he intends with me.
15-16. Merely the thoughtof God All-Powerfulmakes me tremble with fear.
17. God has covered mewith darkness,but I refuse to be silent.
