11. Vow, and pay unto the Lord your God. Well may
we do so in memory of such mercies and judgments. He keeps his promises; let
not his people fail in theirs. He is their faithful God and deserves to have a
faithful people. Let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared. Let surrounding nations submit to the only living
God, let his own people with alacrity present their offerings, and let his
priests and Levites be leaders in the sacred sacrifice. He who deserves to be
praised as our God does, should not have mere verbal homage, but substantial
tribute. Dread Sovereign, I give myself to thee.
