| וּ֝כְסִ֗יל לֹא־יָבִ֥ין אֶת־זֹֽאת׃ | 7b | and fools do not understand this: |
| בִּפְרֹ֤חַ רְשָׁעִ֨ים ׀ כְּמ֥וֹ עֵ֗שֶׂב | 8a | when wicked people flourish like a green plant |
| וַ֭יָּצִיצוּ כָּל־פֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָ֑וֶן | 8b | and any evildoers prosper, |

| יִ֝תְפָּרְד֗וּ כָּל־פֹּ֥עֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃ | 10c | all evildoers will be scattered, |
| וַתָּ֣רֶם כִּרְאֵ֣ים קַרְנִ֑י | 11a | and you will lift up my horn like a wild ox, |
| בְּלּתִי* *כְּ*שֶׁ֣מֶן רַעֲנָֽן׃* | 11b | my old age [will be] fresh like oil, |
| וַתַּבֵּ֥ט עֵינִ֗י בְּשׁ֫וּרָ֥י | 12a | and my eyes will look upon my enemies; |

| דְּשֵׁנִ֖ים וְרַֽעֲנַנִּ֣ים יִהְיֽוּ׃ | 15b | they will be vigorous and fresh |
| לְ֭הַגִּיד כִּֽי־יָשָׁ֣ר יְהוָ֑ה צ֝וּרִ֗י | 16a | in order that people declare that YHWH, my rock, is fair |
| וְֽלֹא־עַוְלָ֥תָה בּֽוֹ׃ | 16b | and there is no injustice in him. |
