14
There's no king or ruler who's able to challenge you concerning those whom you punished.
15
You always do what's right. You've always governed all things correctly. You'd consider it a crime against yourself to destroy someone who didn't deserve to be cut down.
16
Your strength is the very origin of doing the right thing. Because you rule over all, you spare all.
17
You show your strength to those who doubt how powerful you really are. You condemn the pride of those who should know better than to doubt you.
18
Still, though you rule absolutely, you exercise careful judgment. You govern us with amazing restraint. If you wanted to, you could do anything you wished.
