1 Sing joyfullya to the Lord, you righteous;

it is fittingb for the uprightc to praise him.

2 Praise the Lord with the harp;d

make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre.e

3 Sing to him a new song;f

play skillfully, and shout for joy.g

4 For the word of the Lord is righth and true;i

he is faithfulj in all he does.

5 The Lord loves righteousness and justice;k

the earth is full of his unfailing love.l

6 By the wordm of the Lord the heavens were made,n

their starry hosto by the breath of his mouth.

7 He gathers the watersp of the sea into jarsa;q

he puts the deep into storehouses.

8 Let all the earth fear the Lord;r

let all the people of the worlds revere him.t

9 For he spoke, and it came to be;

he commanded,u and it stood firm.

10 The Lord foilsv the plansw of the nations;x

he thwarts the purposes of the peoples.

11 But the plans of the Lord stand firmy forever,

the purposesz of his heart through all generations.
