1 Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous, ♦︎
for it is good for the just to sing praises.
2 Praise the Lord with the lyre; ♦︎
on the ten-stringed harp sing his praise.
3 Sing for him a new song; ♦︎
play skilfully, with shouts of praise.
4 For the word of the Lord is true ♦︎
and all his works are sure.
5 He loves righteousness and justice; ♦︎
the earth is full of the loving-kindness of the Lord.
6 By the word of the Lord were the heavens made ♦︎
and all their host by the breath of his mouth.
7 He gathers up the waters of the sea as in a waterskin ♦︎
and lays up the deep in his treasury.
8 Let all the earth fear the Lord; ♦︎
stand in awe of him, all who dwell in the world.
