With

Bless the LORD, O my soul! O LORD my God, You are very great; You are clothed with splendor and majesty.

He wraps Himself in light as with a garment; He stretches out the heavens like a tent,

You covered it with the deep like a garment; the waters stood above the mountains.

Here is the sea, vast and wide, teeming with creatures beyond number, living things both great and small.

When You give it to them, they gather it up; when You open Your hand, they are satisfied with good things.

…the covenant He made with Abraham, and the oath He swore to Isaac.

They bruised his feet with shackles and placed his neck in irons,

Their land teemed with frogs, even in their royal chambers.

He gave them hail for rain, with lightning throughout their land.

He brought Israel out with silver and gold, and none among His tribes stumbled.

They asked, and He brought quail and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.

He brought forth His people with rejoicing, His chosen with shouts of joy.

He brought forth His people with rejoicing, His chosen with shouts of joy.

Remember me, O LORD, in Your favor to Your people; visit me with Your salvation,

…that I may see the prosperity of Your chosen ones, and rejoice in the gladness of Your nation, and give glory with Your inheritance.

So they provoked the LORD to anger with their deeds, and a plague broke out among them.

For they rebelled against His Spirit, and Moses spoke rashly with his lips.

…but they mingled with the nations and adopted their customs.

They shed innocent blood—the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, and the land was polluted with blood.

And He remembered His covenant with them, and relented by the abundance of His loving devotion.

For He satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.

He humbled their hearts with hard labor; they stumbled, and there was no one to help.

Let them offer sacrifices of thanksgiving and declare His works with rejoicing.

A song. A Psalm of David. My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing and make music with all my being.

Respond and save us with Your right hand, that Your beloved may be delivered.

Have You not rejected us, O God? Will You no longer march out, O God, with our armies?

With God we will perform with valor, and He will trample our enemies.

With God we will perform with valor, and He will trample our enemies.

For wicked and deceitful mouths open against me; they speak against me with lying tongues.

They surround me with hateful words and attack me without cause.

But You, O GOD, the Lord, deal kindly with me for the sake of Your name; deliver me by the goodness of Your loving devotion.

May my accusers be clothed with disgrace; may they wear their shame like a robe.

With my mouth I will thank the LORD profusely; I will praise Him in the presence of many.

Hallelujah! I will give thanks to the LORD with all my heart in the council of the upright and in the assembly.

It is well with the man who is generous and lends freely, whose affairs are guided by justice.

…to seat them with nobles, with the princes of His people.

…to seat them with nobles, with the princes of His people.

Shouts of joy and salvation resound in the tents of the righteous: “The right hand of the LORD performs with valor!

The right hand of the LORD is exalted! The right hand of the LORD performs with valor!”

The LORD is God; He has made His light to shine upon us. Bind the festal sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar.

Blessed are those who keep His testimonies and seek Him with all their heart.

I will praise You with an upright heart when I learn Your righteous judgments.

With all my heart I have sought You; do not let me stray from Your commandments.

With my lips I proclaim all the judgments of Your mouth.

Deal bountifully with Your servant, that I may live and keep Your word.

My soul is consumed with longing for Your judgments at all times.

My soul melts with sorrow; strengthen me according to Your word.

Give me understanding that I may obey Your law, and follow it with all my heart.

Turn my eyes away from worthless things; revive me with Your word.

I have sought Your face with all my heart; be gracious to me according to Your promise.

The earth is filled with Your loving devotion, O LORD; teach me Your statutes.

Though the arrogant have smeared me with lies, I keep Your precepts with all my heart.

Though the arrogant have smeared me with lies, I keep Your precepts with all my heart.

May the arrogant be put to shame for subverting me with a lie; I will meditate on Your precepts.

Your commandments make me wiser than my enemies, for they are always with me.

Deal with Your servant according to Your loving devotion, and teach me Your statutes.

I call with all my heart; answer me, O LORD! I will obey Your statutes.

I look on the faithless with loathing because they do not keep Your word.

Sharp arrows will come from the warrior, with burning coals of the broom tree!

But those who turn to crooked ways the LORD will banish with the evildoers. Peace be upon Israel.

Then our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with shouts of joy. Then it was said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.”

Then our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with shouts of joy. Then it was said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.”

The LORD has done great things for us; we are filled with joy.

Those who sow in tears will reap with shouts of joy.

He who goes out weeping, bearing a trail of seed, will surely return with shouts of joy, carrying sheaves of grain.

But with You there is forgiveness, so that You may be feared.

O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is loving devotion, and with Him is redemption in abundance.

O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is loving devotion, and with Him is redemption in abundance.

Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul; like a weaned child with his mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me.

May Your priests be clothed with righteousness, and Your saints shout for joy.

I will bless her with abundant provisions; I will satisfy her poor with bread.

I will bless her with abundant provisions; I will satisfy her poor with bread.

I will clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints will sing out in joy.

I will clothe his enemies with shame, but the crown upon him will gleam.”

He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He generates the lightning with the rain and brings forth the wind from His storehouses.

…with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm. His loving devotion endures forever.

Of David. I give You thanks with all my heart; before the gods I sing Your praises.

If I were to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand; and when I awake, I am still with You.

I hate them with perfect hatred; I count them as my enemies.

Do not let my heart be drawn to any evil thing or take part in works of wickedness with men who do iniquity; let me not feast on their delicacies.

Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; make music on the harp to our God,

…who covers the sky with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who makes grass to grow on the hills.

The LORD is pleased with those who fear Him, who hope in His loving devotion.

He makes peace at your borders; He fills you with the finest wheat.

Let them praise His name with dancing, and make music to Him with tambourine and harp.

Let them praise His name with dancing, and make music to Him with tambourine and harp.

For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the afflicted with salvation.

…to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with shackles of iron,

…to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with shackles of iron,

Praise Him with the sound of the horn; praise Him with the harp and lyre.

Praise Him with the sound of the horn; praise Him with the harp and lyre.

Praise Him with tambourine and dancing; praise Him with strings and flute.

Praise Him with tambourine and dancing; praise Him with strings and flute.

Praise Him with clashing cymbals; praise Him with resounding cymbals.

Praise Him with clashing cymbals; praise Him with resounding cymbals.

We will find all manner of precious goods; we will fill our houses with plunder.

Throw in your lot with us; let us all share one purse”—

…my son, do not walk the road with them or set foot upon their path.

So they will eat the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.

He stores up sound wisdom for the upright; He is a shield to those who walk with integrity,
