28. For Thou--Thou lightest my lamp, Jehovah my God enlighteneth my darkness.
29. For by Thee I run--a troop! And by my God I leap a wall.

41. They cry, and there is no saviour, On Jehovah, and He doth not answer them.
42. And I beat them as dust before wind, As mire of the streets I empty them out.

44. At the hearing of the ear they hearken to me, Sons of a stranger feign obedience to me,
