7 that they may execute vengeance a- | mong ( the ) heath- en,*
judgments a- | mong the ( peo- ) ples,
8 to | bind ( their kings ) with chains,*
and their nobles with | i- ron ( fet- ) ters,
9 that they may execute upon them the judgment of which | it ( is ) writ- ten;*
such honor | all his ( saints will ) have.
