Let his own eyes see his destruction. Let him drink of the wrath of the Almighty.

For what does he care for his house after him, when the number of his months is cut off?

Shall any teach God knowledge, since he judges those who are high?

A poetic exploration of suffering, faith, and God’s sovereignty.
