4. Leaders of the people by their counsels, And by their understanding men of learning for the people; Wise were their words in their instruction:
5. Such as sought out musical tunes, And set forth verses in writing:
6. Rich men furnished with ability, Living peaceably in their habitations:
7. All these were honored in their generations, And were a glory in their days.
8. There be of them, that have left a name behind them, To declare their praises.
9. And some there be, which have no memorial; Who are perished as though they had not been, And are become as though they had not been born; And their children after them.
10. But these were men of mercy, Whose righteous deeds have not been forgotten.
11. With their seed shall remain continually a good inheritance; Their children are within the covenants.
12. Their seed stands fast, And their children for their sakes.
