aSing for joy in the LORD, O you righteous ones; Praise is bbecoming to the upright.
2Give thanks to the LORD with the alyre; Sing praises to Him with a bharp of ten strings.
3Sing to Him a anew song; Play skillfully with ba shout of joy.
4For the word of the LORD ais upright, And all His work is done bin faithfulness.
5He aloves righteousness and justice; The bearth is full of the lovingkindness of the LORD.
6By the aword of the LORD the heavens were made, And bby the breath of His mouth call their host.
7He gathers the awaters of the sea together 1as a heap; He lays up the deeps in storehouses.
8Let aall the earth fear the LORD; Let all the inhabitants of the world bstand in awe of Him.
9For aHe spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it 1stood fast.
10The LORD anullifies the counsel of the nations; He frustrates the plans of the peoples.
11The acounsel of the LORD stands forever, The bplans of His heart from generation to generation.
12Blessed is the anation whose God is the LORD, The people whom He has bchosen for His own inheritance.
13The LORD alooks from heaven; He bsees all the sons of men;
14From aHis dwelling place He looks out On all the inhabitants of the earth,
15He who afashions 1the hearts of them all, He who bunderstands all their works.
16aThe king is not saved by a mighty army; A warrior is not delivered by great strength.
17A ahorse is a false hope for victory; Nor does it deliver anyone by its great strength.
18Behold, athe eye of the LORD is on those who fear Him, On those who 1 bhope for His lovingkindness,
19To adeliver their soul from death And to keep them alive bin famine.
20Our soul awaits for the LORD; He is our bhelp and our shield.
21For our aheart rejoices in Him, Because we trust in His holy name.
22Let Your lovingkindness, O LORD, be upon us, According as we have 1hoped in You.
