verse 9 In evening and in morning pray•• My soul thee earnestly desired; Yea with my spirit in midst of me • day and night for thee enquired. ⟨image ?⟩For when thy judgments are displayed […] earth, the worlds inhabitants, Will lay to heart thy righteous works, And learn the righteousness of saints.

verse 10 Though for a wicked man there should Bowels of divine pity yearn, Yet he the way of righteousness By no means will be brought to learn▪ In land of righteousness he will Still work perverse iniquity, He will not well consider of Jehovah's glorious majesty.
verse 11 Lord, when thine hand was l••ted […] In exaltation very high, Lest they should see thine hand, they did Perversely turn away their eye. But they with blushing shame, shall see The zeal thou for thy people hast, And the consuming fire that shall Thine adversaries wholly wast.
