11 Mine eyes also shall see the fall Of all my [wicked] enemies; Mine ears shall hear of their defeat, Who [falsely] did against me rise.
11 Mine eyes also shall see the fall Of all my [wicked] enemies; Mine ears shall hear of their defeat, Who [falsly] did against me rise.
12 As Palm-trees flourish full of fruit, The just shall [likewise] flourish so; Like the Cedars of Lebanon They shall increase and [prosperous] grow.
13 Those who in God's most holy house Are [firmly] planted by his grace, Shall flourish in the Courts of God, By the beams of his [pleased] face.
14 Their old age shall not fruitless be, But [good and] plenteous fruit shall bring; When flesh decays they shall be fat, And [ever] green and flourishing.
