¹⁴ Oh satisfy us in the morning with thy lovingkindness, That we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

¹² Hope deferred maketh the heart sick; But when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.

¹¹ I said, I shall not see Jehovah, `even' Jehovah in the land of the living: I shall behold man no more with the inhabitants of the world.
