The PsaImist wrote-I quote the truer
rendering of the American VerSion-"I

tains: from whence shall my help
come? My help cometh from Jehovah,

version concealed the truth. The help
is not from the hills. but from Him who
is higher than the hills. The might and
majesty of nature are inadequate: only
God can suffice for the soul in real
need.
