8 Only this dreadful spectacle, [When] that day [comes] thine eyes shall see How those who now live wickedly, Shall then [by God] rewarded be.
9 Because the blessed God most high, [Who is] my refuge, thou hast made The dwelling where thy faithful soul Its [daily] conversation had.
10 Therefore no great and deadly harm, No [plotted] ill shall thee befall; Nor any penal hurtful plague Come nigh thy [guarded] dwelling shall.
11 Of thee he'll give his Angels charge, [That] whether thou [dost] wake or sleep; In all thy good and righteous ways They shall thee guard and [safely] keep.
