May the praise of God be in their mouths(A)
    and a double-edged(B) sword in their hands,(C)
to inflict vengeance(D) on the nations
    and punishment(E) on the peoples,
to bind their kings with fetters,(F)
    their nobles with shackles of iron,(G)
to carry out the sentence written against them—(H)
    this is the glory of all his faithful people.(I)

Praise the Lord.
