⁷ But the Lord sits enthroned for ever;
    he has established his throne for justice,
⁸ and he ^(A)judges the world with righteousness;
    he ^(B)judges the peoples with uprightness.

¹⁵ For thus says ^(A)the One who is high and lifted up,
    who inhabits eternity, whose name is ^(B)Holy:
^(C)“I dwell in the high and holy place,
    and also ^(D)with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit,
^(E)to revive the spirit of the lowly,
    and to revive the heart of the contrite.
^16 (F)For I will not contend for ever,
    nor will I always be angry;
for the spirit would grow faint before me,
    and the breath of life that I made.
