3. Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah. 4. There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the Most High. 5. God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early. PSALM XLVI, 7. The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah. PSALM CXXV, 1. They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Zion, which can not be removed, but abideth forever. 2. As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth even forever. PROV. XVIII, 10. The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe. ISAIAH LIV, 14. In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee. ISAIAH LIV, 17. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord. ISAIAH XLIII, 2. When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. 3. For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Savior: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. 4. Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honorable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life. 5. Fear not; for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west: 6. I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth; 7. Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him. 5. THE CHURCH'S PROSPERITY _Dependent upon the Divine Blessing_. HOSEA XIV, 5. I will be as the dew unto Israel: he shall grow as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon. 6. His branches shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive tree, and his smell as Lebanon. 7. They that dwell under his shadow shall return; they shall revive as the corn, and grow as the vine: the scent thereof shall be as the wine of Lebanon. ISAIAH XXVII, 2. In that day sing ye unto her, A vineyard of red wine. 3. I the Lord do keep it; I will water it every moment: lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day. 4. Fury is not in me: who would set the briers and thorns against me in battle? I would go through them, I would burn them together. 5. Or let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; and he shall make peace with me.
