⁸ Jehovah will keep thy going out and thy coming in From this time forth and for evermore. Psalm 122 A Song of Ascents; of David.

⁶ Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out.

¹⁸ But we will bless Jehovah From this time forth and for evermore. Praise ye Jehovah.

² Blessed be the name of Jehovah From this time forth and for evermore.

¹³ Come now, ye that say, To-day or to-morrow we will go into this city, and spend a year there, and trade, and get gain:

¹⁴ whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. What is your life? For ye are a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

¹⁵ For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall both live, and do this or that.

¹⁶ But now ye glory in your vauntings: all such glorying is evil.

⁶ In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he will direct thy paths.

⁸ That he may guard the paths of justice, And preserve the way of his saints.

³¹ Then we departed from the river Ahava on the twelfth `day' of the first month, to go unto Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was upon us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy and the lier-in-wait by the way.

²¹ Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek of him a straight way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.

² In times past, when Saul was king over us, it was thou that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and Jehovah said to thee, Thou shalt be shepherd of my people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over Israel.

¹⁹ Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt thou be when thou goest out.
