- "For you would forget your trouble, As waters that have passed by, you would remember it.
- "Your life would be brighter than noonday; Darkness would be like the morning.
- "Then you would trust, because there is hope; And you would look around and rest securely.
- "You would lie down and none would disturb you, And many would entreat your favor.
- "But the eyes of the wicked will fail, And there will be no escape for them; And their hope is to breathe their last."

- You will surely forget your trouble, recalling it only as waters gone by.
- Life will be brighter than noonday, and darkness will become like morning.
- You will be secure, because there is hope; you will look about you and take your rest in safety.
- You will lie down, with no one to make you afraid, and many will court your favor.
- But the eyes of the wicked will fail, and escape will elude them; their hope will become a dying gasp."
