8 Therefore, LORD, we have a respect unto the way of thy judgments; thy name and thy remembrance rejoice the soul. 9 My soul lusteth after thee all the night long, and my mind hasteth freely to thee. For as soon as thy judgment is known to the world, then the inhabiters of the earth learn righteousness. 10 But the ungodly, though he have received grace, yet learneth he not righteousness: but in that place where he is punished, he offendeth, and feareth not the glory of the LORD.
