7  But the Lord sits enthroned forever;

he has established his throne for justice,

8  and he ^ojudges the world with righteousness;

he ^pjudges the peoples with uprightness.

15  For thus says ⁿthe One who is high and lifted up,

who inhabits eternity, whose name is ^oHoly:

^p“I dwell in the high and holy place,

and also ^qwith him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit,

^rto revive the spirit of the lowly,

and to revive the heart of the contrite.

16  ^sFor I will not contend forever,

nor will I always be angry;

for the spirit would grow faint before me,

and the breath of life that I made.
