16From the voice of the despiser, and evil speaker; from the face of the enemy, and the pursuer.
17All these things came on us, and we have not forgotten thee; and we did not wickedly in thy testament.
18And our heart went not away behind; and thou hast not bowed away our paths from thy way.
19For thou hast made us low in the place of torment; and the shadow of death covered us.
20If we forgat the name of our God; and if we held forth our hands to an alien God.
21Whether God shall not seek these things? for he knoweth the hid things of heart.
