Wait Upon Yahweh
1 Woe is me! I am become as one that goeth a gleaning in the harvest. There are no more grapes to eat, yet would I fain, with all my heart, have of the best fruit. 2 There is not a godly man upon earth, there is not one righteous among men. They labour all to shed blood, and every man hunteth his brother to death: 3 yet they say they do well when they do evil. As the prince will, so sayeth the judge: that he may do him a pleasure again. The great man speaketh what his heart desireth; and the hearers allow him.
