34 The hopes of a man that is void of understanding are vain and deceitful: and dreams lift up fools.

The man that giveth heed to lying visions, is like to him that catcheth at a shadow, and followeth after the wind.

The vision of dreams is the resemblance of one thing to another: as when a man's likeness is before the face of a man.

What can be made clean by the unclean? and what truth can come from that which is false?

Deceitful divinations and lying omens and the dreams of evildoers, are vanity:

And the heart fancieth as that of a woman in travail: except it be a vision sent forth from the most High, set no thy heart upon them.

For dreams have deceived many, and they have failed that put their trust in them.

The word of the law shall be fulfilled without a lie, and wisdom shall be made plain in the mouth of the faithful.

18 To whom doth he look, and who in his strength?

19 The eyes of the Lord are upon them that fear him, he is their powerful protector, and strong stay, a defence from the heat, and a cover from the sun at noon,

20 A preservation from stumbling, and a help from falling; he raiseth up the soul, and enlighteneth the eyes, and giveth health, and life, and blessing.

21 The offering of him that sacrificeth of a thing wrongfully gotten, is stained, and the mockeries of the unjust are not acceptable.

22 The Lord is only for them that wait upon him in the way of truth and justice.
