"Nevertheless the righteouswill holdto his way,And he who has cleanhandswill growstrongerand stronger.
"The earthand allwho dwellin it melt;It is I who have firmlysetits pillars.Selah.
They do not knownordo they understand;They walkabout in darkness;Allthe foundationsof the earthare shaken.
"Those from among you will rebuildthe ancientruins;You will raiseup the age-oldfoundations;And you will be calledthe repairerof the breach,The restorerof the streetsin which to dwell.
Nevertheless,the firmfoundationof Godstands,havingthisseal,"The Lordknowsthosewho are His," and, "Everyonewho namesthe nameof the Lordis to abstainfrom wickedness."
