8. In every work of his he gave thanks to the Holy One Most High with words of glory; With his whole heart he sang praise, And loved him that made him.
9. Also he set singers before the altar, And to make sweet melody by their music.
10. He gave comeliness to the feasts, And set in order the seasons to perfection, While they praised his holy name, And the sanctuary sounded from early morning.
11. The Lord took away his sins, And exalted his horn for ever; And gave him a covenant of kings, And a throne of glory in Israel.
12. After him rose up a son, a man of understanding; And for his sake he lived at large.
