13
For neither is there any god besides thee, whose care is for all men, to whom thou shouldst prove that thou hast not judged unjustly;
14
nor can any king or monarch confront thee about those whom thou hast punished.
15
Thou art righteous and rulest all things righteously, deeming it alien to thy power to condemn him who does not deserve to be punished.
16
For thy strength is the source of righteousness, and thy sovereignty over all causes thee to spare all.
17
For thou dost show thy strength when men doubt the completeness of thy power, and dost rebuke any insolence among those who know it.
