Nor at the man who brings to pass the crafts he doth devise. verse 8 Cease ire and wrath, leave to do ill thy self fret in no wise. verse 9 For evil doers shall be made by cutting down to fall: But those that wai• upon the Lord, the land inherit shall.

(2) verse 10 For yet a little while and then, the wicked shall not be: Yea, thou shalt diligently mark his place and it not see. verse 11 But humble men th' inheritance shall of the earth possess; Also they shall themselves delight in multitude of peace.
verse 12 The wicked plots against the just, gnashing at him his teeth. verse 13 The Lord shall laugh at him because his day at hand he seeth. verse 14 The wicked have drawn out their sword, & bent their bow have they To cast the poor and needy down, to kill th' upright in way.
