Nations will speak of his wisdom, and the congregation will proclaim his praise.
11
If he lives long, he will leave a name greater than a thousand, and if he goes to rest, it is enough for him.
12
I have more on my mind to express; I am full like the full moon.
13
Listen to me, my faithful children, and blossom like a rose growing by a stream of water.
14
Send out fragrance like incense, and put forth blossoms like a lily. Scatter the fragrance, and sing a hymn of praise; bless the Lord for all his works.
15
Ascribe majesty to his name and give thanks to him with praise, with songs on your lips, and with harps; this is what you shall say in thanksgiving:
16
"All the works of the Lord are very good, and whatever he commands will be done at the appointed time.
17
No one can say, "What is this?' or "Why is that?'— for at the appointed time all such questions will be answered. At his word the waters stood in a heap, and the reservoirs of water at the word of his mouth.
18
When he commands, his every purpose is fulfilled, and none can limit his saving power.
19
The works of all are before him, and nothing can be hidden from his eyes.
20
From the beginning to the end of time he can see everything, and nothing is too marvelous for him.
