verse 9 My soul hath thee desired by night; Yea, I within me with my spright; in early seeking thee do yearn: For when on earth thy judgments be, The dwellers in the world shall see, That so they righteousness may learn, verse 10 Let to the wicked grace be shown, Yet righteousness learn will he none. But in the land of uprightness He will both deal unrighteously And he Jehovahs Majesty Will not behold him to redress.
