31. In's heart the law is of his God,his steps slide not away.
32. The wicked man doth watch the just,and seeketh him to slay.
33. Yet him the Lord will not forsake,nor leave him in his hands:The righteous will he not condemn,when he in judgment stands.
34. Wait on the Lord, and keep his way,and thee exalt shall heTh' earth to inherit; when cut offthe wicked thou shalt see.
35. I saw the wicked great in pow'r,spread like a green bay-tree:
36. He pass'd, yea, was not; him I sought,but found he could not be.
37. Mark thou the perfect, and beholdthe man of uprightness;Because that surely of this manthe latter end is peace.
38. But those men that transgressors areshall be destroy'd together;The latter end of wicked menshall be cut off for ever.
39. But the salvation of the justis from the Lord above;He in the time of their distresstheir stay and strength doth prove.
40. The Lord shall help, and them deliver:he shall them free and saveFrom wicked men; because in himtheir confidence they have.
