17
I too will have my say;
I too will tell what I know.
18
For I am full of words,
and the spirit within me compels me;
19
inside I am like bottled-up wine,
like new wineskins ready to burst.
20
I must speak and find relief;
I must open my lips and reply.
21
I will show partiality to no one,
nor will I flatter any man;
22
for if I were skilled in flattery,
my Maker would soon take me away.
