8 Let all the people of the earth The Lord Almighty [serve with] fear; And all the world's inhabitants To him due [awe and] reverence bear.
9 He spake but the creating word, And it was done and [all things] made; He did but potently command, And it stood fast as [firmly] stayed.
9 He spake but the creating word, And it was done and [all things] made; He did but potently command, And it stood faft as [firmly] stay'd.
10 The Counsels of the Nations rude, The [Ruling] Lord doth bring to nought; He doth defeat the multitude Of their device and wicked thought.
11 But all the counsels of the Lord Do stand [unchanged] for ever sure▪ ⟨p. 50⟩
