22“But He drags off the valiant by His power;
         He rises, but no one has assurance of life.

23“He provides them with security, and they are supported;
         And His eyes are on their ways.

24“They are exalted a little while, then they are gone;
         Moreover, they are brought low and like everything gathered up;
         Even like the heads of grain they are cut off.

25“Now if it is not so, who can prove me a liar,
         And make my speech worthless?”
