(C)And let all the angels of God worship Him.”

(D)He makes His angels winds,
And His ministers a flame of fire.”

(E)Your throne, God, is forever and ever,
And the scepter of righteousness is the scepter of [c]His kingdom.
(F)You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness;
(G)Therefore God, Your God, has (H)anointed You
With the oil of joy above Your companions.”
