the Lord is my steadfastness, and my refuge, and my deliverer. My God is mine helper; and I shall hope in him. My defender, and the horn of mine health; and mine up-taker.
The wickedness of sinners be ended; and thou, God, seeking the hearts, that is, thoughts, and reins, that is, delightings, shall dress a just [or rightwise] man.
And a man shall be, as he that is hid from [the] wind, and hideth himself from tempest; as streams of waters in thirst, and the shadow of a stone standing far out in a desert land.
Forsooth he shall be into a stone of hurting, and into a stone of stumbling, to twain [or the two] houses of Israel; into a snare, and into falling, to them that dwell in Jerusalem.
Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that slayest prophets, and stonest them that be sent to thee, how oft would I gather together thy sons, as a bird gathereth his nest under feathers [or under wings], and thou wouldest not.
His dwelling place is above, and his arms everlasting be beneath; he shall cast out from thy face the enemy, and he shall say to them, Be thou all-broken.
that by two things unmoveable, by which it is impossible that God lie, we have strongest solace, [or comfort], we that flee together to hold the hope that is put forth to us.
