12. The north and the south, You have created them; Mount Tabor and Mount Hermon joyously praise Your name.
13. You have a mighty arm; strong is Your hand, Your right hand is soaring high.
14. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne; mercy and loving-kindness and truth go before Your face.
15. Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) are the people who know the joyful sound [who understand and appreciate the spiritual blessings symbolized by the feasts]; they walk, O Lord, in the light and favor of Your countenance!
16. In Your name they rejoice all the day, and in Your righteousness they are exalted.
17. For You are the glory of their strength [their proud adornment], and by Your favor our horn is exalted and we walk with uplifted faces!
18. For our shield belongs to the Lord, and our king to the Holy One of Israel.
