Behold, God is mighty but does not (A)reject;
He is (B)mighty in the power of His heart.
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 fetters,
And are caught in the cords of (G)affliction,
Then He declares to them their work
And their transgressions, that they have (H)magnified themselves.
10 (I)He opens their ear to discipline,
And (J)says that they return from wickedness.
11 If they hear and serve Him,
They will (K)end their days in prosperity
And their years in (L)pleasures.
12 But if they do not hear, they shall pass away (M)by a weapon
And they will (N)breathe their last without knowledge.

“Behold, God is mighty, and (A)does not despise any;
    he is (B)mighty in strength of understanding.
He does not keep the wicked alive,
    but gives (C)the afflicted their right.
He does not withdraw his (D)eyes from the righteous,
    but with (E)kings on the throne
    he sets them forever, and they are (F)exalted.
And if they are (G)bound in chains
    and caught in the cords of affliction,
then he declares to them their work
    and their transgressions, that they are (H)behaving arrogantly.
10 He (I)opens their ears to instruction
    and commands that they (J)return from iniquity.
11 (K)If they listen and serve him,
    they (L)complete their days in prosperity,
    and their years in pleasantness.
12 But if they do not listen, they (M)perish by the sword
    and die (N)without knowledge.
