34 The senseless have vain and false hopes,
    and dreams give wings to fools.
² As one who catches at a shadow and pursues the wind,
    so is anyone who pays attention to dreams.^(A)
3 What is seen in dreams is but a reflection,
    the likeness of a face looking at itself.^(B)
4 From an unclean thing, what can be clean?
    And from something false, what can be true?^(C)
5 Divinations and omens and dreams are unreal,
    and like a woman in labor the mind has fantasies.^(D)
6 Unless they are sent by intervention from the Most High,
    pay no attention to them.^(E)
7 For dreams have deceived many,
    and those who put their hope in them have perished.
⁸ Without such deceptions the law will be fulfilled,
    and wisdom is complete in a trustworthy mouth.

¹⁸     To whom do they look? And who is their support?
¹⁹ The eyes of the Lord are on those who love him,
    a mighty shield and strong support,
a shelter from scorching heat and a shade from noonday sun,
    a guard against stumbling and a help against falling.^(A)
20 He lifts up the soul and makes the eyes sparkle;
    he gives health and life and blessing.^(B)

²¹ If one sacrifices ill-gotten goods, the offering is blemished;^[a](C)
22     the gifts^[b] of the lawless are not acceptable.
