19. He leadeth priests away spoiled, and overthroweth the mighty;
20. He depriveth of speech the trusty, and taketh away the judgment of the elders;
21. He poureth contempt upon nobles, and slackeneth the girdle of the mighty;
22. He discovereth deep things out of darkness, and bringeth out into light the shadow of death;
