1: Sing, ye righteous, in Jehovah, For upright ones praise [is] comely. 2: Give ye thanks to Jehovah with a harp, With psaltery of ten strings sing praise to Him, 3: Sing ye to Him a new song, Play skilfully with shouting. 4: For upright [is] the word of Jehovah, And all His work [is] in faithfulness. 5: Loving righteousness and judgment, Of the kindness of Jehovah is the earth full. 6: By the word of Jehovah The heavens have been made, And by the breath of His mouth all their host. 7: Gathering as a heap the waters of the sea, Putting in treasuries the depths. 8: Afraid of Jehovah are all the earth, Of Him are all the inhabitants of the world afraid. 9: For He hath said, and it is, He hath commanded, and it standeth. 10: Jehovah made void the counsel of nations, He disallowed the thoughts of the peoples. 11: The counsel of Jehovah to the age standeth, The thoughts of His heart to all generations. 12: O the happiness of the nation whose God [is] Jehovah, Of the people He did choose, For an inheritance to Him. 13: From the heavens hath Jehovah looked, He hath seen all the sons of men. 14: From the fixed place of His dwelling, He looked unto all inhabitants of the earth; 15: Who is forming their hearts together, Who is attending unto all their works. 16: The king is not saved by the multitude of a force. A mighty man is not delivered, By abundance of power. 17: A false thing [is] the horse for safety, And by the abundance of his strength He doth not deliver. 18: Lo, the eye of Jehovah [is] to those fearing Him, To those waiting for His kindness, 19: To deliver from death their soul, And to keep them alive in famine. 20: Our soul hath waited for Jehovah, Our help and our shield [is] He, 21: For in Him doth our heart rejoice, For in His holy name we have trusted. 22: Let Thy kindness, O Jehovah, be upon us, As we have waited for Thee!
