But, as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth, I humbled, with fasting, my soul, though, my prayer, unto mine own bosom, might return:

But, in mine overthrow, have they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together, - There gathered themselves together against me foolish men, and I knew it not, They have torn in pieces, and not been silent;

For, no salvation, will they utter, - But, against the quiet of the land, deceitful things, do they devise;

For, evil doers, shall be cut off, but, as for them who wait for Yahweh, they, shall inherit the earth.

But, the patient oppressed-ones, shall inherit the earth, and shall delight themselves over the abundance of prosperity.

For, the arms of the lawless, shall be broken, But Yahweh is upholding the righteous.

A lawless man borroweth, and will not repay, But, a righteous man, showeth favour and giveth;

For, such as are blessed of him, shall inherit the earth, But, the cursed of him, shall be cut off.

Then I passed by, and lo! he had vanished! Yea I sought him, but he could not be found.

But, transgressors, are to be destroyed together, the hereafter of lawless men, is to be cut off.

But, the deliverance of the righteous, is from Yahweh, their refuge in a time of distress.

But, I, as one deaf, will not hear, - and as one dumb, who will not open his mouth:

I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, afar from happiness, But, my pain had been stirred:

But, I, being oppressed and needy, May My Lord devise for me, - My help and my deliverer, thou art! O my God, do not tarry!

But, thou, O Yahweh, show me favour and raise me up, That I may repay them.

But, as for me, In my blamelessness, hast thou held me fast, And hast caused me to stand before thee unto times age-abiding.

For, not by their own sword, gat they possession of the land, Nor did, their own arm, win victory for them, - But thine own right hand, and thine own arm, and the light of thy face, Because thou hadst accepted them.

But nay thou hast rejected, and confounded us, And wilt not go forth with our hosts;

But, a son of earth, though wealthy, cannot tarry, He hath made himself a by-word - Beasts, they resemble:

But, God, will redeem my soul, out of the hand of hades, For he will take me. Selah.
