¹Shout for joy, you righteous because of the Lord;

Praise is becoming to the upright.

²Give thanks to the Lord with the harp;

Make psalm melody with the ten-stringed lute.

³Sing a new song to him;

Strike up skilfully with jubilation.

⁴For the word of the Lord is upright,

And all his dealings are performed faithfully.

⁵He loves righteousness and justice;

The earth is full of the Lord's kindness.

And by the spirit of his mouth,

All their array.

⁷He gathers up the waters of the sea into an accumulation;

He puts the depths in treasuries.

⁸Let all the earth fear the Lord;

Let all the inhabitants of the world be afraid of him.

⁹For he spoke, and it came to pass;

He commanded, and it stood firm.

¹⁰The Lord frustrates the counsel of the nations;

He thwarts the designs of the various peoples.

¹¹The counsel of the Lord stands age-abidingly;

The designs of his heart are from generation to generation.

¹²Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord

– The people whom he has chosen as his inheritance.

¹³The Lord looks on from heaven;

He sees all the sons of Adam.

¹⁴From his place of residence he observes

All the inhabitants of the earth

¹⁵– That is he who formed their hearts all together

And who discerns all their works.

¹⁶No king is saved by greatness of military force;

A warrior is not delivered by greatness of strength.

¹⁷A horse is a fallacious means of safety,

And it does not provide deliverance by its great strength.

¹⁸Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him

– On those who are waiting for his kindness,

¹⁹For their own salvation from death

And for their preservation in famine.

²⁰“Our being is waiting for the Lord;

He is our help and our shield.

²¹For in him our heart rejoices,

For we trust in his holy name.

²²O Lord, may your kindness be upon us,

According to how we have waited for you.”
