5. He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the loving-kindness of the Lord.
6. By the word of the Lord were the heavens made, and all their host by the breath of His mouth. [Heb. 11:3; II Pet. 3:5.]
7. He gathers the waters of the sea as in a bottle; He puts the deeps in storage places.
8. Let all the earth fear the Lord [revere and worship Him]; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
9. For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.
10. The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nought; He makes the thoughts and plans of the peoples of no effect.
11. The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the thoughts of His heart through all generations.
12. Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He has chosen as His heritage.
13. The Lord looks from heaven, He beholds all the sons of men;
14. From His dwelling place He looks [intently] upon all the inhabitants of the earth–
15. He Who fashions the hearts of them all, Who considers all their doings.
16. No king is saved by the great size and power of his army; a mighty man is not delivered by [his] much strength.
