I do not by exact recollection know the number of the Psalm, be it 42, 43, 46 or 49. Take one of them, count backward by that number of it and you will find "shake." Count forward by the same and you shall find "spear."

It's Psalm 46.

The year the KJV of the Bible was released (1611), Shakespeare also happened to be age 46.

One of those wierd quirks of history.

What do you count, words, verses or the psalms themselves?
