25 Eternal One, You are my God.
    I will lift You up and praise Your name.
Because You have made wonders marvelous and beautiful
    the most ancient designs holding strong and sure.
Your power is awesome. You have brought down whole cities,
    turned fortresses and strongholds into piles of sticks and rubble.
A citadel of foreigners is no longer even a city.
    Those structures are gone forever.
This is why nations strong and mighty will glorify You;
    the cities of ruthless people will fear and respect You.
