| 4All the kings of the earth shall give you thanks, O LORD, for they have heard the words of your mouth, | 4Let all the kings of the earth give thanks to you, O LORD, when they hear the words you speak. |
| 5and they shall sing of the ways of the LORD, for great is the glory of the LORD. | 5Let them sing about the LORD's deeds, for the LORD's splendor is magnificent. |
| 6For though the LORD is high, he regards the lowly, but the haughty he knows from afar. | 6Though the LORD is exalted, he takes note of the lowly, and recognizes the proud from far away. |

| 8The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O LORD, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands. | 8The LORD avenges me. O LORD, your loyal love endures. Do not abandon those whom you have made! |
