7 - Will you speak unrighteously for God,and talk deceitfully for him?

21 - withdraw your hand far from me;and don't let your terror make me afraid.

22 - Then call, and I will answer;or let me speak, and you answer me.

23 - How many are my iniquities and sins?Make me know my disobedience and my sin.
