Rejoicein the LORD, O ye righteous: for praiseis comelyfor the upright. Praisethe LORDwith harp: singunto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings. Singunto him a newsong; playskilfullywith a loud noise. Forthe wordof the LORD is right; and allhis works are done in truth. He lovethrighteousnessand judgment: the earthis fullof the goodnessof the LORD. By the wordof the LORDwere the heavensmade; and allthe hostof them by the breathof his mouth. He gathereththe watersof the seatogether as a heap: he layeth upthe depthin storehouses. Let allthe earthfearthe LORD: let allthe inhabitantsof the worldstand in aweofhim. Forhespoke, and it was done ; hecommanded, and it stood fast. The LORDbringeth the counselof the heathento naught: he maketh the devicesof the peopleof none effect. The counselof the LORDstandethforever, the thoughtsof his heartto allgenerations. Blessed is the nationwhoseGod is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosenfor his own inheritance. The LORDlookethfrom heaven; he beholdethallthe sonsof men. From the placeof his habitationhe lookethuponallthe inhabitantsof the earth. He fashioneththeir heartsalike; he considerethalltheir works. There is nokingsavedby the multitudeof a host: a mighty manis notdeliveredby muchstrength. A horse is a vain thingfor safety: neithershall he deliver any by his greatstrength. Behold, the eyeof the LORD is uponthem that fearhim, upon them that hopein his mercy; To delivertheir soulfrom death, and to keep them alivein famine. Our soulwaitethfor the LORD: he is our helpand our shield. Forour heartshall rejoicein him, becausewe have trustedin his holyname. Let thy mercy, O LORD, beuponus, according aswe hopein thee.
