¹⁶ Give glory to Adonai your God,
    before it grows dark,
    and before your feet stumble
        on mountains at dusk.
    When you look for light,
        He turns it into the shadow of death,
        and turns it into deep darkness.
¹⁷ But if you will not listen,
    my soul will sob in secret
        before such pride,
    and my eyes will weep bitterly
        and overflow with tears,
    for Adonai’s flock will be taken captive.
