4 You can be sure that my words are not false;one who really knows is with you.
5 “God is powerful, but he does not hate people;he is powerful and sure of what he wants to do.
6 He will not keep evil people alive,but he gives the poor their rights.
7 He always watches over those who do right;he sets them on thrones with kingsand they are honored forever.
8 If people are bound in chains,or if trouble, like ropes, ties them up,
9 God tells them what they have done,that they have sinned in their pride.
10 God makes them listen to his warningand commands them to change from doing evil.
