[5]A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not, [No book]
[6]Ears they have, and they hear not, A nose they have, and they smell not, [No book]
[7]Their hands, but they handle not, Their feet, and they walk not; [No book]

[12]Jehovah hath remembered us, He blesseth, He blesseth the house of Israel, He blesseth the house of Aaron, [No book]
[13]He blesseth those fearing Jehovah, The small with the great. [No book]
[14]Jehovah addeth to you, to you, and to your sons. [No book]
[15]Blessed [are] ye of Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth, [No book]
[16]The heavens -- the heavens [are] Jehovah's, And the earth He hath given to sons of men, [No book]
[17]The dead praise not Jah, Nor any going down to silence. [No book]
[18]And we, we bless Jah, From henceforth, and unto the age. Praise ye Jah! [No book]
