5. Then H227 shall he speak H1696 unto H413 them in his wrath H639 , and vex H926 them in his sore displeasure H2740 .
|
|

|
9. Thou shalt break H7489 them with a rod H7626 of iron H1270 ; thou shalt dash them in pieces H5310 like a potter H3335 's vessel H3627 .
|
|

|
10. Be wise H7919 now H6258 therefore , O ye kings H4428 : be instructed H3256 , ye judges H8199 of the earth H776 .

12. Kiss the Chosen One, lest He be angry, And ye lose the way, When His anger burneth but a little, O the happiness of all trusting in Him!
|
12. Kiss H5401 the Son H1248 , lest H6435 he be angry H599 , and ye perish H6 from the way H1870 , when H3588 his wrath H639 is kindled H1197 but a little H4592 . Blessed H835 are all H3605 they that put their trust H2620 in him.
