(A)My righteousness draws near,
    my salvation has gone out,
    and my arms will judge the peoples;
(B)the coastlands hope for me,
    and for my arm they wait.
(C)Lift up your eyes to the heavens,
    and look at the earth beneath;
(D)for the heavens vanish like smoke,
    the earth will wear out like a garment,
    and they who dwell in it will die in like manner;[a]
(E)but my salvation will be forever,
    and my righteousness will never be dismayed.

(F)“Listen to me, you who know righteousness,
    the people (G)in whose heart is my law;
(H)fear not the reproach of man,
    nor be dismayed at their revilings.
