SCRIPTURE

"He saith in his heart, I shall not be moved; To all generations I shall not be in adversity." — Psalms 10:6 (ASV)

I shall not. —The meaning of the verse is clear, but the construction is involved. Literally, I shall not be moved from generation to generation, who am not in evil. The Septuagint and Vulgate omit the relative altogether. The best rendering is, “I shall never be moved at any time: I who am without ill.”
