Well, the exact words are different aren't they? You post the biblical words, I see a different sentence written by Juliana. The meaning/content is more or less the same, yes, but still highly personally phrased.
Juliana changed the exact words of her final inauguration version several times as I could see in handwritten versions at an exhibition at the Royal Library at The Hague two years ago. Interesting subtle changes...
IIRC I also posted the several versions here at the time.
Anything you do to reduce Juliana to an average queen, eh, Henri? You did it ever since she died.
Juliana has been my beloved as well as real queen for 24 beautiful years which I prefer to the almost 30 years I have Beatrix as my queen whom I just respect, find professional but never loved OR original. Juliana was a personality, Beatrix our highest civil servant.
