⁶ For -- to the age he is not moved; For a memorial age-during is the righteous.

¹³ His posterity is for cutting off, In another generation is their name blotted out.

⁴⁸ Because He looked on the lowliness of His maid-servant, For, lo, henceforth call me happy shall all the generations,

³⁴ And I have covered over this city, To save it, for Mine own sake, And for the sake of David My servant.'
