| For the word of the Lord is right and true; he is faithful in all he does. | For the word of the Lord holds true, and we can trust everything he does. |
| The Lord loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love. | He loves whatever is just and good; the unfailing love of the Lord fills the earth. |
|
| By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth. | The Lord merely spoke, and the heavens were created. He breathed the word, and all the stars were born. |
| Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose for his inheritance. | What joy for the nation whose God is the Lord, whose people he has chosen as his inheritance. |
| But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love. | But the Lord watches over those who fear him, those who rely on his unfailing love. |
| May your unfailing love be with us, Lord, even as we put our hope in you. | Let your unfailing love surround us, Lord, for our hope is in you alone. |
