Until I went into the sanctuary of God,\par\tab And considered their latter end.
But God said unto him, Thou foolish one, this night is thy soul required of thee; and the things which thou hast prepared, whose shall they be?
Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary:\par\tab Who is a great god like unto God?
One thing have I asked of Jehovah, that will I seek after:\par\tab That I may dwell in the house of Jehovah all the days of my life,\par\tab To behold the beauty of Jehovah,\par\tab And to inquire in his temple.
Thy testimonies also are my delight\par\tab {\i And} my counsellors.\par
So have I looked upon thee in the sanctuary,\par\tab To see thy power and thy glory.
the prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?\par
The opening of thy words giveth light;\par\tab It giveth understanding unto the simple.
For what is the hope of the godless, though he get him gain,\par\tab When God taketh away his soul?
But thou, O Jehovah, art on high for evermore.
