KJV ⁵ When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me;

WLC ⁵ בְּע֣וֹד שַׁ֭דַּי עִמָּדִ֑י סְבִ֖יבוֹתַ֣י נְעָרָֽי׃

KJV ⁶ When I washed my steps with butter, and the rock poured me out rivers of oil;

WLC ⁶ בִּרְחֹ֣ץ הֲלִיכַ֣י בְּחֵמָ֑ה וְצ֥וּר יָצ֥וּק עִ֝מָּדִ֗י פַּלְגֵי־ שָֽׁמֶן׃

KJV ⁷ When I went out to the gate through the city, when I prepared my seat in the street!

WLC ⁷ בְּצֵ֣אתִי שַׁ֣עַר עֲלֵי־ קָ֑רֶת בָּ֝רְח֗וֹב אָכִ֥ין מוֹשָׁבִֽי׃

KJV ⁸ The young men saw me, and hid themselves: and the aged arose, and stood up.

WLC ⁸ רָא֣וּנִי נְעָרִ֣ים וְנֶחְבָּ֑אוּ וִֽ֝ישִׁישִׁים קָ֣מוּ עָמָֽדוּ׃

KJV ⁹ The princes refrained talking, and laid their hand on their mouth.

WLC ⁹ שָׂ֭רִים עָצְר֣וּ בְמִלִּ֑ים וְ֝כַ֗ף יָשִׂ֥ימוּ לְפִיהֶֽם׃

KJV ¹⁰ The nobles held their peace, and their tongue cleaved to the roof of their mouth.

WLC ¹⁰ קוֹל־ נְגִידִ֥ים נֶחְבָּ֑אוּ וּ֝לְשׁוֹנָ֗ם לְחִכָּ֥ם דָּבֵֽקָה׃

KJV ¹¹ When the ear heard me, then it blessed me; and when the eye saw me, it gave witness to me:

WLC ¹¹ כִּ֤י אֹ֣זֶן שָׁ֭מְעָה וַֽתְּאַשְּׁרֵ֑נִי וְעַ֥יִן רָ֝אֲתָ֗ה וַתְּעִידֵֽנִי׃

KJV ¹² Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and him that had none to help him.

WLC ¹² כִּֽי־ אֲ֭מַלֵּט עָנִ֣י מְשַׁוֵּ֑עַ וְ֝יָת֗וֹם וְֽלֹא־ עֹזֵ֥ר לֽוֹ׃

KJV ¹³ The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.

WLC ¹³ בִּרְכַּ֣ת אֹ֭בֵד עָלַ֣י תָּבֹ֑א וְלֵ֖ב אַלְמָנָ֣ה אַרְנִֽן׃

KJV ¹⁴ I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.

WLC ¹⁴ צֶ֣דֶק לָ֭בַשְׁתִּי וַיִּלְבָּשֵׁ֑נִי כִּֽמְעִ֥יל וְ֝צָנִ֗יף מִשְׁפָּטִֽי׃

KJV ¹⁵ I was eyes to the blind, and feet was I to the lame.

WLC ¹⁵ עֵינַ֣יִם הָ֭יִיתִי לַֽעִוֵּ֑ר וְרַגְלַ֖יִם לַפִּסֵּ֣חַ אָֽנִי׃

KJV ¹⁶ I was a father to the poor: and the cause which I knew not I searched out.

WLC ¹⁶ אָ֣ב אָ֭נֹכִֽי לָֽאֶבְיוֹנִ֑ים וְרִ֖ב לֹא־ יָדַ֣עְתִּי אֶחְקְרֵֽהוּ׃
