³⁰ Even youths are wearied and fatigued, And young men utterly stumble,

³¹ But those expecting Jehovah pass `to' power, They raise up the pinion as eagles, They run and are not fatigued, They go on and do not faint!

⁴⁵ and happy `is' she who did believe, for there shall be a completion to the things spoken to her from the Lord.'

²¹ Hand to hand, the wicked is not acquitted, And the seed of the righteous hath escaped.

⁵ `Before I form thee in the belly, I have known thee; and before thou comest forth from the womb I have separated thee, a prophet to nations I have made thee.'

³ Lo, an inheritance of Jehovah `are' sons, A reward `is' the fruit of the womb.

³ For I pour waters on a thirsty one, And floods on a dry land, I pour My Spirit on thy seed, And My blessing on thine offspring.

⁴ And they have sprung up as among grass, As willows by streams of water.

⁵ This `one' saith, For Jehovah I `am', And this calleth `himself' by the name of Jacob, And this `one' writeth `with' his hand, `For Jehovah,' and by the name of Israel surnameth himself.

¹⁰ Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, And be glad in her, all ye loving her, Rejoice ye with her for joy, All ye are mourning for her,

⁷ A messenger of Jehovah is encamping, Round about those who fear Him, And He armeth them.

¹⁹ And He bringeth me forth to a large place, He draweth me out, because He delighted in me.

¹⁷ And I `am' poor and needy, The Lord doth devise for me. My help and my deliverer `art' Thou, O my God, tarry Thou not.

⁹ and in the doing good we may not be faint-hearted, for at the proper time we shall reap -- not desponding;
