Until I went into the sanctuary of El; then understood I their end.
For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when Eloah taketh away his soul?
The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.

One thing have I desired of Yahweh, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of Yahweh all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of Yahweh, and to enquire in his temple.
To see thy power and thy honour, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.

But thou, Yahweh, art most high for evermore.
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?
But Elohim said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
