23 You who fear the Lord, praise him!

All you offspring of Jacob, glorify him;

stand in awe of him, all you offspring of Israel!

24 For he did not despise or abhor

the affliction of the afflicted;

he did not hide his face from me,f

but heard when Ig cried to him.

25 From you comes my praise in the great congregation;

my vows I will pay before those who fear him.

26 The poorh shall eat and be satisfied;

those who seek him shall praise the Lord.

May your hearts live forever!

27 All the ends of the earth shall remember

and turn to the Lord;

and all the families of the nations

shall worship before him.i

28 For dominion belongs to the Lord,

and he rules over the nations.

29 To him,j indeed, shall all who sleep ink the earth bow down;

before him shall bow all who go down to the dust,

and I shall live for him.l

30 Posterity will serve him;

future generations will be told about the Lord,

31 andm proclaim his deliverance to a people yet unborn,

saying that he has done it.
