Jehovahs Law is ever his delight,
And in his law he studies day and night.

By watry streams, and in his season knows
To yield his fruit, and his leaf shall not fall.
And what he takes in hand shall prosper all.

The wind drives, so the wicked shall not stand
In judgment, or abide their tryal then

For the Lord knows th'upright way of the just
And the way of bad men to ruine must.

With power, and Princes in their Congregations

Against the Lord and his Messiah dear.

Their bonds, and cast from us, no more to wear,
