17 I broke the jaws of the unrighteous man; I plucked the victim out from between his teeth.

19 My roots are spread out to the waters, and dew lies all night on my branches.

20 The honor in me is always fresh, and the bow of my strength is always new in my hand.'
20 My glory is fresh in me. My bow is renewed in my hand.’
21 To me men listened; they waited for me; they stayed silent to hear my advice.
21 “Men listened to me, waited, and kept silence for my counsel.
22 After my words were done, they did not speak again; my speech dropped like water on them.

24 I smiled on them when they did not expect it; they did not reject the light of my face.

25 I selected their way and sat as their chief; I lived like a king in his army, like one who comforts mourners.
