  • 1. Be glad in the Lord, O doers of righteousness; for praise is beautiful for the upright.
  • 2. Give praise to the Lord on the corded instrument; make melody to him with instruments of music.
  • 3. Make a new song to him; playing expertly with a loud noise.
  • 4. For the word of the Lord is upright, and all his works are certain.
  • 5. His delight is in righteousness and wisdom; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.
  • 6. By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the army of heaven by the breath of his mouth.
  • 7. He makes the waters of the sea come together in a mass; he keeps the deep seas in store-houses.
  • 8. Let the earth be full of the fear of the Lord; let all the people of the world be in holy fear of him.
  • 9. For he gave the word, and it was done; by his order it was fixed for ever.
  • 10. The Lord undoes the designs of the nations; he makes the thoughts of the peoples without effect.
  • 11. The Lord's purpose is eternal, the designs of his heart go on through all the generations of man.
  • 12. Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he has taken for his heritage.
  • 13. The Lord is looking down from heaven; he sees all the sons of men;
  • 14. From his house he keeps watch on all who are living on the earth;
  • 15. He makes all their hearts; their works are clear to him.
  • 16. A king's salvation is not in the power of his army; a strong man does not get free by his great strength.
  • 17. A horse is a false hope; his great power will not make any man free from danger.
  • 18. See, the eye of the Lord is on those in whose hearts is the fear of him, on those whose hope is in his mercy;
  • 19. To keep their souls from death; and to keep them living in time of need.
  • 20. Our souls are waiting for the Lord; he is our help and our salvation.
  • 21. For in him our hearts have joy; in his holy name is our hope.
  • 22. Let your mercy be on us, O Lord, as we are waiting for you.
