8 Thou didst make Judgment heard from heaven, The [subject] earth was still with fear.
9 When God arose to judge and save All those that humble [and meek] were.
10 The furious wrath of cruel men Shall [surely] to thy praise redound; And the remainder of their wrath Thou wilt restrain, and [strictly] bound.
11 Vow to the Lord your God, and pay [All] you that are [un-] to him near; And bring your Presents unto him That ought to be your [chiefest] fear.
12 The greatest Princes spirits all [Quickly] by him cut off shall be; And to the Kings that Rule on earth, [At last] most terrible is he.
