Praise ye the Lord.

^aBlessed is the man that feareth the Lord,

That ^bdelighteth greatly in his commandments.

^2cHis seed shall be mighty upon earth:

The generation of the upright shall be blessed.

^3dWealth and ^driches shall be in his house:

And ^ehis righteousness endureth for ever.

^4fUnto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness:

He is ^ggracious, and full of compassion, and ^hrighteous.

⁵A good man ⁱsheweth favour, and lendeth:

He will ^jguide his affairs with ^kdiscretion.

⁶Surely ^lhe shall not be moved for ever:

^mThe righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

⁷ⁿHe shall not be afraid of evil tidings:

His ^oheart is fixed, ^ptrusting in the Lord.

⁸His heart is ^qestablished, ⁿhe shall not be afraid,

Until he ^rsee his desire upon his enemies.

^9sHe hath ^tdispersed, he hath given to the poor;

^eHis ^urighteousness endureth for ever;

His ^vhorn shall be exalted with honour.

¹⁰The wicked shall see it, and be grieved;

He shall ^wgnash with his teeth, and ^xmelt away:

^yThe desire ^yzof the wicked shall perish.

^*Psalm CXIII.

Praise ye the Lord.

^aPraise, O ye ^abservants of the Lord,

Praise the name of the Lord.

^2cBlessed be the name of the Lord

From this time forth and for evermore.

^3dFrom the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same

^eThe Lord’s name is ^fto be praised.

⁴The Lord is ^ghigh above all nations,

And ^hhis glory above the heavens.

⁵ⁱWho is like unto the Lord our God,

Who dwelleth on high,

^6jWho humbleth himself to behold

The things that are in heaven, and in the earth?

⁷He raiseth up the poor out of the dust,

And lifteth the needy out of the dunghill;

^8kThat he may ^lset him with princes,

Even with the princes of his people.

^9mHe maketh the barren woman to keep house,

To be a joyful mother of children.

ⁿPraise ye the Lord.
