Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
Praise the Lord with harp: sing unto HIM with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings. Sing unto HIM a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
For the word of the Lord is right; and all HIS works are done in truth.
He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.
By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of HIS mouth.
He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: He layeth up the depth in storehouses.
Let all the earth fear the Lord: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of HIM.
For HE spake, and it was done; HE commanded, and it stood fast.
The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: HE maketh the devices of the people of none effect.
Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom HE hath chosen
for HIS own inheritance.
The Lord looketh from heaven; HE beholdeth all the sons of men. From the place of HIS habitation. HE looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth. He fashioneth their hearts alike;
HE considereth all their works.
There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.
Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear HIM, upon them that hope in HIS mercy;
To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
Our soul waiteth for the Lord: HE is our help and our shield. For our heart shall rejoice in Him, because we have trusted in HIS HOLY NAME.
