5. The Lord is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.
6. And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the Lord is his treasure.
7. Behold, their valiant ones shall cry without: the ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.
8. The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth: he hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man.
9. The earth mourneth and languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed and hewn down: Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.
