9. For He spoke, and it came into being;He commanded, and it came into existence.
10. The Lord frustrates the counsel of the nations;He thwarts the plans of the peoples.
11. The counsel of the Lord stands forever,the plans of His heart from generation to generation.
12. Happy is the nation whose God is Yahweh —the people He has chosen to be His own possession!
13. The Lord looks down from heaven;He observes everyone.
