[verse 4] And he shall judge those people then,that worldly comforts lack,And he shall save poor needy men,and break th' oppressors back. [verse 5] Then shall they fear thee to be sure,the people great and small,So long as Sun and Moon endure,to Generations all.
[verse 6] He shall descend as rain pour'd forth▪upon the mowen Grass,As show'rs that water all the earth,whatever way they pass. [verse 7] The Just shall flourish in his time,and great the peace shall be:Untill the Moon surcease to shine,Amen, Amen, say we.
