^18 (A)There is none to guide her
    among all the sons she has borne;
there is none to take her by the hand
    among all the sons she has brought up.

⁵ I looked, but ^(A)there was no one to help;
    I was appalled, but there was no one to uphold;
so my own arm brought me salvation,
    and my wrath upheld me.
