Strana 422 - He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God ; and he shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, even a morning without clouds ; as the tender grass springing out of the earth by clear shining after rain.
Strana 418 - Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name : bring an offering, and come into his courts. O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness : fear before him, all the earth.

Strana 418 - O SING unto the LORD a new song: Sing unto the LORD, all the earth.
Strana 168 - For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God...
