2If we assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieued? But who can withhold himselfe from speaking? 3Beholde, Thou hast instructed many, and thou hast strengthened the weake hands. 4Thy words haue vpholden him that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees. 5But now it is come vpon thee, and thou faintest, it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled. 6Is not this thy feare, thy confidence; the vprightnesse of thy wayes and thy hope?
