1 Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule according to the law;
2 and each of them is as a protection against the wind, and a covert from the tempest, like streams of water in the desert, like the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.
3 And the eyes of those who see will not be dim, and the ears to hear will listen to.
4 And the heart of the rash will understand knowledge, and bumbling will speak clearly.
5 The ignorant will no longer be called honorable, and not the treacherous will say that he is honest.
6 For the vile person will speak villany, and his heart will work iniquity, to act hypocritically and utter error against the Lord, the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty.
7 At the churl are evil: he devises to lie in wait to destroy the poor with lying words, even when the needy is right.
8 A honest and thinks about honest and firmly in all that honest.

9 Women carefree! Arise, hear my voice; careless daughters give ear to my words.
10 Many days and years, and horrified, carefree! because there will be fleecing the grapes and the harvest shall not come.
eleven Tremble, carefree! terrible, careless! reset clothes, bare, and gird your loins.
12 They will beat their breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine.
13 On the land of my people shall come up thorns and briers; yea, on all the houses of joy in the joyous city;
14 for the palaces will be forsaken; bustling city will be abandoned; Ophelia and the tower will forever be, instead of caves, wild asses, a pasture of flocks;
15 until izlietsya Spirit upon us from above, and the wilderness be a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.
16 Then judgment shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness remain in the fruitful field.
17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the fruit of justice - peace of mind and assurance for ever.
18 And my people shall dwell in peace and in safe dwellings, and in pokoischah blessed.
19 And the hail will fall on the forest, and the city will come down to the valley.
20 Blessed are you who sow beside all waters, that send to the ox and the ass.
