4 And to the power of the king who loveth justice and righteousness hast thou truly executed in Jacob.

Exalt you the Lord our God, and worship [at] his footstool; for he is holy.

6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests, and Samuel among those that call on his name; they called on the Lord, and he answered them.

8 O Lord, our God, thou didst answer them: thou wast a forgiving God unto them, yet also an avenger for their wrong doings.

9 Exalt the Lord our God, and bow yourselves down before his holy mount; for holy is the Lord our God.

Exalt you the Lord our God, and worship at his holy mountain; for the Lord our God is holy.
