10 I will give praise to thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing a psalm to thee among the nations.	10 For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
11 For thy mercy is magnified even to the heavens: and thy truth unto the clouds.	11 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.
12 Be thou exalted, O God, above the l heavens: and thy glory above all the earth.
