7. He rules for ever by his power,his eyes watch the nations –let not the rebellious rise up against him.
8. Praise our God, all peoples,let the sound of his praise be heard;
9. he has preserved our livesand kept our feet from slipping.
10. For you, God, tested us;you refined us like silver.
11. You brought us into prisonand laid burdens on our backs.
12. You let people ride over our heads;we went through fire and water,but you brought us to a place of abundance.
