6For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good comes, but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, a salt land and not inhabited.
7Blessed is the man who trusts in Yahweh, and whose trust Yahweh is.
8For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, who spreads out its roots by the river, and shall not fear when heat comes, but its leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
9The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceedingly corrupt: who can know it?
10I, Yahweh, search the mind, I try the heart, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.
11As the partridge that sits on [eggs] which she has not laid, so is he who gets riches, and not by right; in the midst of his days they shall leave him, and at his end he shall be a fool.
12A glorious throne, [set] on high from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary.
