he enthrones them with kings

and exalts them forever.

but he gives justice to the oppressed.

He does not withdraw his gaze from the righteous,

but he seats them forever with enthroned kings,

and they are exalted.

He never takes his eyes off the innocent,

but he sets them on thrones with kings

and exalts them forever.

Look, God is mighty but does not despise anyone;

he is mighty and good in understanding.

He does not keep the wicked alive

but grants justice to the afflicted.

He does not withdraw his eyes from the righteous,

but he sets them forever with kings on the throne, and they are exalted.
