28. JOD. He shall sit solitary and silent. For he has lifted it upon himself.
29. JOD. He shall place his mouth in the dirt, if perhaps there may be hope.
30. JOD. He shall give his cheek to those who strike him; he shall be saturated with reproaches.
31. CAPH. For the Lord will not rebuke forever.
32. CAPH. For, if he has cast down, he will also have compassion, according to the multitude of his mercies.
