His feeling will no longer be bitter; he will not keep his wrath for ever.

10

He has not given us the punishment for our sins, or the reward of our wrongdoing.

As for man, his days are as grass: his beautiful growth is like the flower of the field.

16

The wind goes over it and it is gone; and its place sees it no longer.

17

But the mercy of the Lord is eternal for his worshippers, and their children's children will see his righteousness;

18

If they keep his agreement, and have his laws in mind to do them.

The Lord has made ready his high seat in the heavens; his kingdom is ruling over all.

Give praise to the Lord, you his angels, who are great in strength, doing his orders, and waiting for his voice.

Give praise to the Lord, all you his armies; and you his servants who do his pleasure.

Give praise to the Lord, all his works, in all places under his rule: give praise to the Lord, O my soul.
