Behold, thou hast instructed many, And thou hast strengthened the weak hands.Thy words have upholden him that was falling, And thou hast made firm the feeble knees.
But there is a spirit in man, And the breath of the Almighty giveth them understanding.It is not the great that are wise, Nor the aged that understand justice.Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will show mine opinion.
Behold, I have taught you statutes and ordinances, even as Jehovah my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the midst of the land whither ye go in to possess it.
