The Fourth Part.
[verse 32] The wicked for the righteous mandoth watch as for his prey,And in his cruel hatred himdeviseth how to slay. [verse 33] But the good Lord will never leavethe just man in his hands,The righteous he will not condemn,when he in judgement stands.
[verse 34] Wait thou on God, and keep his way,thou shalt exalted bee,The land t' inherit, and the fallof wicked shalt thou see. [verse 35] The wicked very great in pow'r,flourishing I have seen,I saw him spreading out himself,like to a lawrel green.

[verse 36] Yet suddenly he past away,and could no more be seen,I sought him narrowly, but couldnot finde where he had been. [verse 37] Observe and mark the perfect man,the righteous man behold,For that mans days will end in peace,and blessings manifold.
[verse 38] But the transgressors all of themshall be destroy'd together,This is the end of wicked mento be cut off for ever, [verse 39] But the salvation of the justis from the Lord alway,In time of trouble and distresse,he is their strength and stay.
[verse 40] God shall them keep, and set them freefrom ill men and uniust,The righteous he shall surely save,because in him they trust.
