Rejoice in the Lord—Sing unto him a new song—He loveth righteousness and judgment—Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.

 REJOICE in the LORD, O ye righteous: for ^apraise^• 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 ^anew^• song; play skilfully with a loud noise.

 For the ^aword^• of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in truth.

 He loveth ^arighteousness and ^bjudgment^•: the earth is ^cfull^• of the goodness of the LORD.

 By the ^aword of the LORD were the ^bheavens 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 ^aspake^•, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.

 The LORD bringeth the ^acounsel^• of the ^bheathen^• to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.

 The ^acounsel^• of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.

 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD: and the people whom he hath ^achosen^• for his own inheritance.

 The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.

 From the place of his habitation he ^alooketh^• upon all the inhabitants of the earth.

 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their ^aworks^•.

 There is no king ^asaved^• by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.

 An ^ahorse^• is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he ^bdeliver^• any by his great strength.

 Behold, the ^aeye^• 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 ^afamine^•.

 Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he is our help and our ^ashield^•.

 For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.

 Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we ^ahope in thee.
