10 “I the Lord search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways,according to the fruit of his deeds.”
11 Like the partridge that gathers a brood that she did not hatch,so is he who gets riches but not by justice; in the midst of his days they will leave him, and at his end he will be a fool.
12 A glorious throne set on high from the beginningis the place of our sanctuary.
13 O Lord, the hope of Israel, all who forsake you shall be put to shame;those who turn away from you shall be written in the earth,for they have forsaken the Lord, the fountain of living water.
14 Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed;save me, and I shall be saved,for you are my praise.
15 Behold, they say to me,“Where is the word of the Lord?Let it come!”
16 I have not run away from being your shepherd,nor have I desired the day of sickness. You know what came out of my lips;it was before your face.
