23 Yea, I'll beat down before His face ‖ those who do trouble Him; ‖ and them that are haters of Him ‖ I'll smite with wasting plagues. ‖
24 But still my Faithfulness, and my ‖ Mercy shall be with Him; ‖ and in my Name His horn shall be ‖ exalted very high. ‖
25 I on the Sea will cause His hand ‖ Dominion to exert; ‖ and on the Rivers His right hand ‖ to do what He shall please. ‖
26 He shall invoke me at this rate, ‖ Thou art my Father; Thou! ‖ Thou art my God; and Thou the Rock ‖ of my Salvation art. ‖
