5 The heavens(A) praise your wonders, Lord,
your faithfulness too, in the assembly(B) of the holy ones.

7 In the council(D) of the holy ones(E) God is greatly feared;
he is more awesome than all who surround him.(F)
8 Who is like you,(G) Lord God Almighty?(H)
You, Lord, are mighty, and your faithfulness surrounds you.

when its waves mount up, you still them.(I)

with your strong arm you scattered(K) your enemies.

you founded the world and all that is in it.(N)
12 You created the north and the south;
Tabor(O) and Hermon(P) sing for joy(Q) at your name.
13 Your arm is endowed with power;
your hand is strong, your right hand exalted.(R)
