⁴² We have done wickedly, and have stirred thee to wrath; therefore thou art not able to be prayed (to).

⁴³ Thou coveredest in strong vengeance, and smitedest us (and hast struck us); thou killedest (us), and sparedest (us) not.

⁴⁴ Thou settedest a cloud to thee, that prayer pass not. (Thou hast set a cloud before thee, that prayers cannot pass through.)
