13. Listen to me, you devout children of mine, and blossom like a rosebush by a stream.
14. Bloom like a sweet-smelling lily, and send your fragrance into the air like incense. Sing the Lord's praises, and thank him for all that he has done.
15. Proclaim his glory in grateful praise! To the music of the harp, sing this song:
16. All that the Lord has done is very good;all that he commands is sooner or later done.
17. No one should ask why things are as they are;these questions will be answered at the right time.He commanded, and the water piled up high,great walls of water arose when he spoke.
18. Whatever he commands is promptly done;there are no limits to his power to save.
19. He sees all that every human being does;there is no way to hide from his sight.
20. He sees the whole of time, from beginning to end,and nothing takes him by surprise.
