So caused he them to stand perpetually—age-abidingly, A decree, hath he given, and it passeth not beyond.

Kings of earth, and all peoples, Rulers, and all judges of earth;

Young men, yea even virgins, elders, and children.

Let them praise the Name of Yahweh, for lofty is his Name alone, His splendour is over earth and heavens.

Therefore hath he exalted a horn for his people, a praise for all his men of lovingkindness, for the sons of Israel—a people near him, Praise ye Yah!
