who said of his father and mother,
    ‘I regard them not’;
(A)he disowned his brothers
    and ignored his children.
For (B)they observed your word
    and kept your covenant.
10 (C)They shall teach Jacob your rules
    and Israel your law;
(D)they shall put incense before you
    and (E)whole burnt offerings on your altar.
11 Bless, O Lord, his substance,
    and (F)accept the work of his hands;
crush the loins of his adversaries,
    of those who hate him, that they rise not again.”

but he watched over your word
    and guarded your covenant.(B)
10 He teaches(C) your precepts to Jacob
    and your law to Israel.(D)
He offers incense before you(E)
    and whole burnt offerings on your altar.(F)
11 Bless all his skills, Lord,
    and be pleased with the work of his hands.(G)
Strike down those who rise against him,
    his foes till they rise no more.”
