He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the steadfast love of the Lord. | The Lord loves righteousness and justice; the earth is filled with his kindness. |

By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, and by the breath of his mouth all their host. | The heavens were made by the word of the Lord, and all their host by the breath of his mouth. |
Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom he has chosen as his heritage! | Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom he has chosen as his heritage. |
Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his steadfast love. | But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him, on those who trust in his kindness. |
Let your steadfast love, O Lord, be upon us, even as we hope in you. | O Lord, let your kindness rest upon us, for we have placed our hope in you. |
