1
Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous! For praise from the upright is beautiful.
2
Praise the Lord with the harp; Make melody to Him with an instrument of ten strings.
3
Sing to Him a new song; Play skillfully with a shout of joy.
4
For the word of the Lord is right, And all His work is done in truth.
5
He loves righteousness and justice; The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.
6
By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, And all the host of them by the breath of His mouth.
7
He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap; He lays up the deep in storehouses.
8
Let all the earth fear the Lord; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
9
For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.
10
The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect.
11
The counsel of the Lord stands forever, The plans of His heart to all generations.
