2Thinke vpon thy Congregation, which thou hast possessed of olde, and on the rod of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed, and on this mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt.
3Lift vp thy strokes, that thou mayest for euer destroy euery enemie that doeth euill to the Sanctuarie.
4Thine aduersaries roare in the middes of thy Congregation, and set vp their banners for signes.
5He that lifted the axes vpon the thicke trees, was renowmed, as one, that brought a thing to perfection:
6But nowe they breake downe the carued worke thereof with axes and hammers.
7They haue cast thy Sanctuarie into the fire, and rased it to the grounde, and haue defiled the dwelling place of thy Name.
