23. राजा तेरे बच्चों के निज-सेवक और उनकी रानियाँ दूध पिलाने के लिये तेरी दाइयां होंगी। वे अपनी नाक भूमि पर रगड़कर तुझे दण्डवत् करेंगे और तेरे पाँवों की धूल चाटेंगे। तब तू यह जान लेगी कि मैं ही यहोवा हूँ; मेरी बाट जोहनेवाले कभी लज्जित न होंगे।” (भज. 72:9-11, योए. 2:27)

23. राजा तेरे बच्चों के निज-सेवक और उनकी रानियां दूध पिलाने के लिये तेरी धाइयां होंगी। वे अपनी नाक भूमि पर रगड़ कर तुझे दण्डवत करेंगे और तेरे पांवों की धूलि चाटेंगे। तब तू यह जान लेगी कि मैं ही यहोवा हूं; मेरी बाट जोहने वाले कभी लज्जित न होंगे॥
ERVHI
23. राजा तेरे बच्चों के शिक्षक होंगे और राजकन्याएँ उनका ध्यान रखेंगी। वे राजा और उनकी कन्याएँ दोनों तेरे सामने माथा नवायेंगे। वे तेरे पाँवों भी धूल का चुम्बन करेंगे। तभी तू जानेगा कि मैं यहोवा हूँ। तभी तुझको समझ में आयेगा कि हर ऐसा व्यक्ति जो मुझमें भरोसा रखता है, निराश नहीं होगा।”
