1I will singe of the Lord’s great love forever;

with my mouth I will make your faithfulness knownf

through all generations.

2I will declare that your love stands firm forever,

that you have established your faithfulness in heaven itself.g

3You said, “I have made a covenant with my chosen one,

I have sworn to David my servant,

4‘I will establish your line forever

and make your throne firm through all generations.’ ”ch

5The heavensi praise your wonders, Lord,

your faithfulness too, in the assemblyj of the holy ones.

6For who in the skies above can compare with the Lord?

Who is like the Lord among the heavenly beings?k

7In the councill of the holy onesm God is greatly feared;

he is more awesome than all who surround him.n

8Who is like you,o Lord God Almighty?p

You, Lord, are mighty, and your faithfulness surrounds you.

9You rule over the surging sea;

when its waves mount up, you still them.q

10You crushed Rahabr like one of the slain;

with your strong arm you scattereds your enemies.

11The heavens are yours,t and yours also the earth;u

you founded the world and all that is in it.v

12You created the north and the south;

Taborw and Hermonx sing for joyy at your name.

13Your arm is endowed with power;

your hand is strong, your right hand exalted.z

14Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne;a

love and faithfulness go before you.b
