He that serveth the Lord shall be accepted with favour, and his prayer shall reach unto the
clouds.

smitten in sunder the loins of the unmerciful, and repayed vengeance to the heathen; till he have
taken away the multitude of the proud, and broken the sceptre of the unrighteous;
19
Till he have rendered to every man according to his deeds, and to the works of men according
to their devices; till he have judged the cause of his people, and made them to rejoice in his mercy.
