⁵ Therefore have I hewed them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and thy judgments are as the light that goeth forth.

¹⁸ But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

³⁶ His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.

⁶ He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that water the earth.
