Let not a proud footstep be mine, Nor let mine be the hands to oppress. When evil they do letthem fai , And never be able to rise. PSALM 37. BQ Qnttiit. SrANzA 1. Let not the wicked attract: Nor envy their practice of sin; For like grass they are quickly cut down, And they wither, as do the green leaves. But trust in the LORD and do good, Rest safe in the land and be fed, And make your delight in the LORD, Who will grant the desire of your heart. 689
