Walk not thou in the way with them, refrain thy foot from their path, for their feet run

cometh as a whirlwind, when distress and anguish cometh upon you.

fear, and rejoice with trembling.
Kiss the sun, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but
a little.
Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
