Create in me a clean heart, O God; And renew a right spirit within me.
I am as a wonder unto many; But thou art my strong refuge.
For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; And the place thereof shall know it no more.
They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree shall be the days of my people, and my chosen shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
I will be as the dew unto Israel; he shall blossom as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon.
His branches shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive-tree, and his smell as Lebanon.
