9Who 1doesH6213 greatH1419 and unsearchableH369H2714 thingsH2714, 2WondersH6381 withoutH5704H369 numberH4557.10He 3givesH5414 rainH4306 on the earthH776 And sendsH7971 waterH4325 on the fieldsH2351,11So that 4He setsH7760 on highH4791 those who are lowlyH8217, And those who mournH6937 are liftedH7682 to safetyH3468.12He 5frustratesH6565 the plottingH4284 of the shrewdH6175, So that their handsH3027 cannotH3808 attainH6213 successH8454.13He 6capturesH3920 the wiseH2450 by their own shrewdnessH6193, And the adviceH6098 of the cunningH6617 is quicklyH4116 thwartedH4116.14By dayH3119 they 7meetH6298 with darknessH2822, And gropeH4959 at noonH6672 as in the nightH3915.15But He savesH3467 from 8the swordH2719 of their mouthH6310, And 9the poorH34 from the handH3027 of the mightyH2389.16So the helplessH1800 hasH1961 hopeH8615, And 10unrighteousnessH5767 must shutH7092 its mouthH6310.
