20 And when the Lord hath given you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction, thy rain shall be no more kept back, but thine eyes shall see thy [a]rain.

21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, [b]walk ye in it, when thou turnest to the right hand, and when thou turnest to the left.

22 And ye shall [c]pollute the covering of the images of silver, and the rich ornament of thine images of gold, and cast them away as a menstruous cloth, and thou shalt say unto it, [d]Get thee hence.
