10 I, Yahweh, examine the mind, I test the heart, and give to each one according to his way, according to the fruit of his deeds.
11 Like a partridge that hatches eggs it did not lay is one who amasses wealth without justice. In the middle of his days it will leave him, and at his end he will prove to be a fool.”
12 A lofty throne of glory from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.
13 O Yahweh, the hope of Israel, all those who forsake you will be put to shame, and those who turn aside from you in the earth will be recorded, for they have forsaken the fountain of living water, Yahweh.
14 Heal me, O Yahweh, and I will be healed, save me, and I will be saved, for you are my praise.
15 Look, they are saying to me, “Where is the word of Yahweh? Please let it come.”
16 But I, I have not run away from being a shepherd who follows you, and I have not desired the disastrous day. You, you know the pronouncement of my lips, it was before your face.
