1 Praise the Lord!
.
. Always I will extol the Lord with all my heart
. Before the council of the upright and in the assembly.
2 Certainly the works of the Lord are great,
. Delighting those who ponder them.
3 Eternally glorious and majestic are his deeds;
. Forever his righteousness endures.
4 God has caused his wonders to be remembered.
. How gracious and compassionate the Lord is—
5 Insuring that those who fear him have food,
. Justly remembering his covenant forever.
6 Knowing him, his people see the power of his works;
. Lands of other nations he gives into their hands.
7 Moreover, the works of his hands are faithful and just;
. Not one of his precepts is untrustworthy.
8 Oh, how steadfast they are, forever and ever,
. Proven in faithfulness and uprightness!
9 Quickly he provided redemption for his people;
. Righteously he ordained his covenant forever—
. Surely his name is holy and awesome!
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom
. Understanding is given to all following his precepts.
. Very truly, eternal praise belongs to him.
