25. If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because my hand had gotten much;
26. If I beheld the sun when it shone, or the moon walking in brightness,

29. If I rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me, and exulted when evil befell him;
30. (Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin by asking his life with a curse;)
