Behold, God is mighty but does not (A)reject anyone;
He is (B)mighty in strength of understanding.
He does not (C)keep the wicked alive,
But gives justice to (D)the afflicted.
He does not (E)withdraw His eyes from the righteous,
But (F)with kings on the throne
He has seated them forever, and they are exalted.
And if they are bound in shackles,
And are caught in the snares of (G)misery,
Then He declares to them their work
And their wrongdoings, that they have (H)been arrogant.
10 (I)He opens their ears to instruction,
And (J)commands that they return from injustice.
11 If they listen and serve Him,
They will (K)end their days in prosperity,
And their years in (L)happiness.
12 But if they do not listen, they will [a]perish (M)by the sword,
And (N)die without knowledge.
