Let all the earth fear the Lord;
Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
For (A)He spoke, and it was done;
He commanded, and it stood fast.

10 (B)The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing;
He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect.
11 (C)The counsel of the Lord stands forever,
The plans of His heart to all generations.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,
The people He has (D)chosen as His own inheritance.
