5 For I have known that great `is' Jehovah, Yea, our Lord `is' above all gods.
There is none like Thee among the gods, O Lord, And like Thy works there are none. All nations that Thou hast made Come and bow themselves before Thee, O Lord, And give honour to Thy name. For great `art' Thou, and doing wonders, Thou `art' God Thyself alone.
For great `is' Jehovah, and praised greatly, Fearful He `is' over all gods. For all the gods of the peoples `are' nought, And Jehovah made the heavens.
And Jehovah `is' a God of truth, He `is' a living God, and a king age-during, From His wrath shake doth the earth, And nations endure not His indignation. Thus do ye say to them, The gods Who the heavens and earth have not made, They do perish from the earth, And from under these heavens.
From before me is made a decree, that in every dominion of my kingdom they are trembling and fearing before the God of Daniel, for He `is' the living God, and abiding to the ages, and His kingdom that which `is' not destroyed, and His dominion `is' unto the end. A deliverer, and rescuer, and doer of signs and wonders in the heavens and in earth `is' He who hath delivered Daniel from the paw of the lions.'
