4 Listen to Me, O My people;and give ear to Me, O My nation:for a law shall proceed from Me,and I will set My justice as a light of the peoples.
5 My righteousness is near,My salvation has gone forth,and My arms shall judge the peoples;the coastlands shall wait for Me,and for My arm they shall expectantly wait.
6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens,and look on the earth beneath.For the heavens shall vanish away like smoke,and the earth shall grow old like a garment,and those who dwell in it shall die in like manner;but My salvation shall be forever,and My righteousness shall not be abolished.
7 Listen to Me, you who know righteousness,the people in whose heart is My law;do not fear the reproach of mennor be afraid of their revilings.
8 For the moth shall eat them up like a garment,and the worm shall eat them like wool;but My righteousness shall be foreverand My salvation from generation to generation.
9 Awake, awake, put on strength,O arm of the Lord.Awake as in the ancient days,in the generations of old.Was it not You who cut Rahab to piecesand wounded the dragon?
10 Was it not You who dried up the sea,the waters of the great deep,who made the depths of the sea a pathwayfor the ransomed to pass over?
