8. Whose mouth speaks vanity;And their right hand is a right handthat works deceitfully.

9. A new song I to thee will sing,Lord, on a psaltery;I on a ten-string'd instrumentwill praises sing to thee.

10. Ev'n he it is that unto kingssalvation doth send;Who his own servant David dothfrom hurtful sword defend.

11. O free me from strange children's hand,whose mouth speaks vanity;And their right hand a right hand isthat works deceitfully.

12. That, as the plants, our sons may bein youth grown up that are;Our daughters like to corner-stones,carv'd like a palace fair.
