26. They have passed away as the swift ships,as the eagle that swoops on the prey.
27. If I say, ‘I will forget my complaint,I will put off my sad face, and cheer up;’
28. I am afraid of all my sorrows,I know that you will not hold me innocent.
29. I shall be condemned.Why then do I labour in vain?
30. If I wash myself with snow,and cleanse my hands with lye,
31. yet you will plunge me in the ditch.My own clothes shall abhor me.
