- The words of the godly are like sterling silver;
the heart of a fool is worthless. - The Lord is righteous in everything he does;
he is filled with kindness. - Yours, O Lord, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty. Everything in the heavens and on earth is yours, O Lord, and this is your kingdom. We adore you as the one who is over all things.
- What joy for the nation whose God is the Lord,
whose people he has chosen as his inheritance. - You must be compassionate, just as your Father is compassionate.

and he does as he wishes. - For wives, this means submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For a husband is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of the church. He is the Savior of his body, the church.
- For the word of the Lord holds true,
and we can trust everything he does. - He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress where I will not be shaken. - “I am the Alpha and the Omega—the beginning and the end,” says the Lord God. “I am the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come—the Almighty One.”
