LORD

which
is
thy
sword :
From men by
your
hand, Yahweh
, From men of the world, whose
portion is
in this life .

fill
the
belly of your
cherished
ones.
Your
sons
have
plenty
, And they
store
up
wealth
for
their children
.

are
thy
hand, O
LORD
, from men of the world, which
have
their
portion in this life ,
and
whose
belly thou
fillest
with
thy
hid
treasure:
they
are
full
of children
, and leave
the
rest
of
their substance
to
their
babes
.
As for me, I shall
see
your
face in righteousness ;
I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with seeing
your
form
.
As for me, I will
behold
thy
face in righteousness :
I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy
likeness
.
