7 all of these were honoredin their generation,a source of pride in their time.
8 Some of them left behind a nameso that their praises might be told.
9 For some there is no memory,and they perished as thoughthey hadn’t existed.These have become as thoughthey hadn’t been born,they and even their children after them.
10 But these were compassionate peoplewhose righteous deedshaven’t been forgotten.
11 This will persist with their children;their descendantswill be a good legacy.
12 Their descendants standby the covenants,and their children also, for their sake.
13 Their descendants will last forever,and their glory will never be erased.
