| 6He made heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them. He keeps every promise forever. | 6Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever: |

| 9The LORD protects the foreigners among us. He cares for the orphans and widows, but he frustrates the plans of the wicked. | 9The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down. |
| 10The LORD will reign forever. He will be your God, O Jerusalem, throughout the generations. Praise the LORD! | 10The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD. |
