1. Lo, for righteousness doth a king reign, As to princes, for judgment they rule.
2. And each hath been as a hiding-place [from] wind, And as a secret hiding-place [from] inundation, As rivulets of waters in a dry place, As a shadow of a heavy rock in a weary land.
3. And not dazzled are the eyes of beholders, And the ears of hearers do attend.
