| 4Do good, O LORD, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts. | 4Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, and to the upright in heart. |
| 5As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel. | 5But those who turn to crooked ways the LORD will banish with the evildoers. Peace be upon Israel. |
