Plains, because of the equality: because of equality, I say, from thence just peoples have been called plains. Hills, because of lifting up: because God dot…”

10For thou, O God, hast proved us; Thou hast tried us with fire as silver is tried.

11Thou broughtest us into the snare; Thou laidest afflictions on our back.
