THE earth is the LORD's, and all that | therein is the compass of the world, and | they

10 Who is the | King of glory : even the

LORD of hosts,

He is-the King of glory.

5 For in the time of trouble He shall | hide me in-His tabernacle : yea, in the secret place of His dwelling shall He hide me, and set me up on a rock of stone.
