8 A Raiser of a lowly one from the dust;+

From the ashpit he lifts up a poor one,+

To make them sit with nobles; and a throne of glory+ he gives to them as a possession.+

For to Jehovah belong earth’s supports,+

And he places upon them the productive land.*

30 Be in severe pains on account of him, all [YOU people of] the earth!

Also the productive land* is firmly established:

Never will it be made to totter.+

 8 And he himself will judge the productive land* in righteousness;+

He will judicially try national groups in uprightness.+

 8 Let all [those of] the earth* be in fear of Jehovah.+

At him let all the inhabitants of the productive land* be frightened.+

18 The sound of your thunder was like chariot wheels;+

Lightnings have lighted up the productive land;*+

The earth became agitated and began to rock.+
