7 And the Lord became my helper; therefore I turned not back; but I set my face as a solid rock, and I perceived that I should not be ashamed.

8 For he draweth near that justified me: who is he that contendeth with me; let him stand up against me together; yea, who is he that contendeth with me? let him draw near to me.

9 Behold, the Lord helpeth me: who shall harm me? behold, all ye. shall wax old ’a garment, and as it were a moth shall eat you up.

10 Who among you is he that feareth the Lord? let him listen to the voice of his servant: ye that walk in darkness, they have no light, trust ye in the name of the Lord, and stay yourselves upon God.

11 Behold, all ye kindle a ﬁre, and strengthen a ﬂame; walk by the light of your ﬁre, and in the ﬂame wherewith ye kindled it; because of me came this upon you, ye shall lie down in pain.

LI. 1 Hearken to me, ye that pursue that is righteous, and seek the Lord: look unto the solid rock which ye did hew, and unto the hole of the pit which ye digged.
