5 you who inflame yourselves among the oaks, under every green tree; who kill the children in the valleys, under the clefts of the rocks?
Who inflame yourselves among the oaks under every tree luxuriant [who] slaughter children in the wadis under [the] clefts of the cliffs.

[is] among [the] smooth [stones] of [the] wadi Portion your they they [are] allotted portion your also to them you have poured out a drink offering you have offered up a grain offering ¿ on these [things] will I relent.
7 On a high and lofty mountain you have set your bed; there also you went up to offer sacrifice.
On a mountain high and lifted up you have set bed your also there you have gone up to sacrifice a sacrifice.
8 Behind the doors and the posts you have set up your memorial: for you have uncovered to someone besides me, and have gone up; you have enlarged your bed, and made you a covenant with them: you loved their bed where you saw it.
And behind the door and the doorpost you have set up memorial your for from with me you have uncovered and you have gone up you have made wide bed your and you have cut off for yourself from them you have loved bed their a hand you have seen.

10 You were wearied with the length of your way; yet you did not say, 'It is in vain.' You found a reviving of your strength; therefore you weren't faint.
With [the] greatness of journey your you became weary not you said despairing [the] life of hand your you found there-fore not you became weak.
11 "Of whom have you been afraid and in fear, that you lie, and have not remembered me, nor laid it to your heart? Haven't I held my peace even of long time, and you do not fear me?
And whom? did you dread and did you fear? that you will lie and me not you remembered not you put [it] on heart your ¿ not [am] I silent and from long ago and me not you fear.
12 I will declare your righteousness; and as for your works, they shall not profit you.
I I will declare righteousness your and deeds your and not they will benefit you.
13 When you cry, let those who you have gathered deliver you; but the wind shall take them, a breath shall carry them all away: but he who takes refuge in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain."
When cry out you let them deliver you collection your and all of them it will carry away a wind it will take [them] away a breath and the [one who] takes refuge in me he will inherit [the] land so he may possess [the] mountain of holiness my.

15 For thus says the high and lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: "I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also who is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.
For thus he says [the] high [one] and [the] exalted [one] [the one who] dwells perpetuity and [is] holy name his a high place and a holy [place] I dwell and with a [person] contrite and a [person] lowly of spirit to restore [the] spirit of lowly [people] and to restore [the] heart of contrite [people].
16 For I will not contend forever, neither will I be always angry; for the spirit would faint before me, and the souls who I have made.
For not for ever I will conduct a case and not to perpetuity I will be angry for spirit from to before me it will grow faint and breaths [which] I I made.
17 For the iniquity of his covetousness was I angry, and struck him; I hid myself and was angry; and he went on backsliding in the way of his heart.
In [the] iniquity of unjust gain his I was angry and I struck him I hid and I may be angry and he walked apostate in [the] way of own heart his.
18 I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts to him and to his mourners.
Ways his I have seen and I will heal him and I will lead him and I may restore comfort to him and to mourners his.

20 But the wicked are like the troubled sea; for it can't rest, and its waters cast up mire and dirt.
And the wicked [people] [are] like the sea tossed for to be quiet not it is able and they have tossed up waters its mire and mud.
