1. Eliphas the The manite answered and said. 2. If a man assay to talk, shall it grieve thee? And who can hold himself from speaking? 3. Behold, thou hast taught many, and thou hast strengthened the weary hands. 4. By thy words thou haste stayed them up that were falling, thou hast strengthened the weak and trembling knees. 5. But now that the evil is come upon thee, thou art out of quiet: and now that it hath touched thee, thou art astonied. 6. Is not this thy fear, thy trust, thy hope, and the uprightness of thy ways?
