6. Rich men furnished with ability, Living peaceably in their habitations:
7. All these were honored in their generations, And were a glory in their days.
8. There be of them, that have left a name behind them, To declare their praises.
9. And some there be, which have no memorial; Who are perished as though they had not been, And are become as though they had not been born; And their children after them.
10. But these were men of mercy, Whose righteous deeds have not been forgotten.
11. With their seed shall remain continually a good inheritance; Their children are within the covenants.
12. Their seed stands fast, And their children for their sakes.
13. Their seed shall remain for ever, And their glory shall not be blotted out.
14. Their bodies were buried in peace, And their name lives to all generations.
15. Peoples will declare their wisdom, And the congregation tells out their praise.
16. Enoch pleased the Lord, and was translated, Being an example of repentance to all generations.
17. Noah was found perfect and righteous; In the season of wrath he was taken in exchange for the world; Therefore was there left a remnant to the earth, When the flood came.
18. Everlasting covenants were made with him, That all flesh should no more be blotted out by a flood.
19. Abraham was a great father of a multitude of nations; And there was none found like him in glory;
20. Who kept the law of the Most High, And was taken into covenant with him: In his flesh he established the covenant; And when he was proved, he was found faithful.
