In context

²⁴The earth is given into the hand of the wicked; He blindfolds its judges. If it is not He, then who is it?

²⁵My days are swifter than a runner; they flee without seeing good.

²⁶They sweep by like boats of papyrus, like an eagle swooping down on its prey.

²⁷If I were to say, ‘I will forget my complaint and change my expression and smile,’

²⁸I would still dread all my sufferings; I know that You will not acquit me.
