For, thus, saith he that is high and lifted up—Inhabiting futurity, And, holy, is his name: A high and holy place, will I inhabit, Also with the crushed and lowly in spirit, To revive the spirit of the lowly, and To revive the heart of them who are crushed;—
My Lord Yahweh, thou thyself, hast begun to shew thy servant thy greatness, and thy firm hand,—as to which, what GOD is there, in the heavens or in the earth, that can do according to thy doings, and according to thy mighty deeds?
Whatsoever things, in fact, were written aforetime, all for our own instruction were written,—in order that, through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures, we might have their hope.
Do not ye dread, nor yet be alarmed, Have I not from olden time, told thee and declared? So that, ye, are my witnesses,—Whether there is a GOD besides me? Or is no Rock—I knew of none!
See, now, that, I, I, am, he that is, And there are no gods with me,—I, kill—and make alive, I wound and, I, heal, And there is none who, from my hand, can deliver,
Yahweh, was my mountain crag and my stronghold, and my deliverer: My GOD, was my rock, I sought refuge in him, My shield, and my horn of salvation, my high tower.
So he said:—I will hide any face from them, I will see what will be their hereafter,—For a generation given to intrigue, they are, Sons, whom there is no trusting;
For this cause, hast thou magnified thyself, O Yahweh Elohim,—for there is none like unto, thee, yea there is no God besides thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
My God, was my rock, I sought refuge in him,—My shield, and my horn of salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, My Saviour! from violence, thou didst save me.
and said—O Yahweh, God of Israel! Not like thee, is there a God, in the heavens above, or upon the earth beneath,—keeping Covenant and Lovingkindness for thy servants who are walking before thee, with all their heart;
For, I—Yahweh, am your God, therefore shall ye hallow yourselves and remain holy; for, holy, am, I,—therefore shall ye not make your persons unclean, with any creeping thing that crawleth upon the earth;
So then thou must consider to-day, and bring it back to thy heart, that, Yahweh, he is God in the heavens above and upon the earth beneath,—there is none other.
