Then said he unto me, Thou art sore troubled in mind for Israel's sake: lovest thou that people better than he that made them? 34And I said, No, Lord: but of very grief have I spoken: for my reins pain me every hour, while I labour to comprehend the way of the most High, and to seek out part of his judgment. 35And he said unto me, Thou canst not.
