¹⁵⁸ I look at ^(A)the faithless with ^(B)disgust,
    because they do not keep your commands.

¹³⁶ My eyes ^(A)shed streams of tears,
    because people ^(B)do not keep your law.

⁸ But as for me, ^(A)I am filled with power,
    with the Spirit of the Lord,
    and with justice and might,
to declare to Jacob ^(B)his transgression
    and to Israel his sin.

⁹ If I say, “I will not mention him,
    or speak any more in his name,”
^(A)there is in my heart as it were a burning fire
    shut up in my bones,
and ^(B)I am weary with holding it in,
    and I cannot.

¹⁸ For I am full of words;
    the spirit within me constrains me.
¹⁹ Behold, my belly is like wine that has no vent;
    like new ^(A)wineskins ready to burst.
^20 (B)I must speak, that I may find ^(C)relief;
    I must open my lips and answer.
