1. Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: praise is comely for the upright.
2. Give thanks unto the LORD with harp: sing praises unto him with the psaltery of ten strings.
3. Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
4. For the word of the LORD is right; and all his work is done in faithfulness.
5. He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the lovingkindness of the LORD.
6. By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
7. He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the deeps 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 spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
10. The LORD bringeth the counsel of the nations to nought: he maketh the thoughts of the peoples to be of none effect.
11. The counsel of the LORD standeth fast for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
