4. For the Word of Jehovah is right, and all His works are in truth.

5. He loves righteousness and judgment; the mercy of Jehovah fills the earth.

6. Through the Word of Jehovah the heavens were made; and all their host were made by the breath of His mouth.

7. The waters of the sea were gathered like a heap, setting the depths in storehouses.

8. Let all the earth fear Jehovah; let all those living in the world stand in awe of Him.

9. For He spoke, and it came into being; He commanded, and it stood fast.

10. Jehovah voids the counsel of the nations, He frustrates the thoughts of the peoples.

17. A horse is a vain thing for safety; nor does he save by his great strength.

18. Behold the eye of Jehovah is to those who fear Him, on those who hope in His mercy;

19. to deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.

20. Our soul waits for Jehovah; He is our help and shield.

21. For our heart rejoices in Him because we trust in His holy name.

22. Let Your mercy be upon us, O Jehovah, even as we trust in You.
