1Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
2Praise the LORD with harp: sing to him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings.
3Sing to him a new song; play skillfully with a loud noise.
4For the word of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in truth.
5He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the LORD.
6By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
7He gathereth the waters of the sea together as a heap: he layeth up the depth in store-houses.
8Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9For he spoke, and it was done ; he commanded, and it stood fast.
10The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to naught: he maketh the devices of the people of no effect.
