and justice for all the oppressed.#Ps 147:7

and its place is no longer known.#103:16 Lit place no longer knows it#Is 40:6–7

the Lord’s faithful love is toward those who fear him,
and his righteousness toward the grandchildren#Ex 20:6; Dt 5:10; Ps 25:6

who remember to observe his precepts.#Dt 7:9; Ps 25:10

and his kingdom rules over all.#Ps 11:4; 47:2

all his angels of great strength,
who do his word,
obedient to his command.#Ps 29:1; 148:2

his servants who do his will.#1Kg 22:19; Neh 9:6

in all the places where he rules.#Ps 145:10
My soul, bless the Lord!
