His delight will be in the fear of the Lord.
He will not judge
by what He sees with His eyes,(A)
He will not execute justice
by what He hears with His ears,
but He will judge the poor righteously(B)
and execute justice for the oppressed of the land.
He will strike the land
with discipline[a] from His mouth,(C)
and He will kill the wicked(D)
with a command[b] from His lips.(E)
Righteousness will be a belt around His loins;(F)
faithfulness will be a belt around His waist.(G)
