I was then just as in the days of my youth, when God was privately in my tabernacle.
At that time, the Almighty was with me and my children surrounded me.
Then, I washed my feet with butter, and a boulder poured out rivers of oil for me.
When I went to the gate of the city, or to the main street, they prepared a chair for me.
The youths saw me and hid themselves, and the elders, rising up, remained standing.
The leaders stopped talking, and they placed a finder over their mouth.
The commanders subdued their voice, and their tongue adhered to their throat.
