**1 **Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: *for* praise is comely for the upright.

**2 **Praise the LORD with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery *and* an instrument 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 works *are done* in truth.

**5 **He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness 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 depth 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 heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.

**11 **The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.

**12 **Blessed *is* the nation whose God *is* the LORD; *and* the people *whom* he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

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

**14 **From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.

**15 **He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.

**16 **There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.

**17 **An horse *is* a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver *any* by his great strength.

**18 **Behold, the eye of the LORD *is* upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;

**19 **To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.

**20 **Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he *is* our help and our shield.

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

**22 **Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
