6. Stalwart, solidly established,at peace in their own estates—
7. All these were glorious in their time,illustrious in their day.
8. Some of them left behind a nameso that people recount their praises.

10. Yet these also were godly;their virtues have not been forgotten.
11. Their wealth remains in their families,their heritage with their descendants.
12. Through God’s covenant their family endures,and their offspring for their sake.
13. And for all time their progeny will endure,their glory will never be blotted out;
