16 Because he did not Mercy show, But persecute the Weak and Poor, ⟨p. 188⟩That such as were of broken heart He might destroy, or break yet more:
17 As he in cursing did delight Upon himself so let it come; In blessing he delighted not, So him let it be still far from.
18 As he with cursing clothed himself, As garments clothe adorned ones, As water let it on him come, And like to oil into his bones:
18 As he with cursing cloath'd himself, As garments cloath adorned ones, As water let it on him come, And like to oil into his bones:
19 As garments to him let it be, Even as his covering and array; And as a girdle on his loins, Wherewith he girded is alway.
