For the word of the Lord is right and true; he is faithful in all he does. | For Yahweh’s word is right. All his work is done in faithfulness. |
The Lord loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love. | He loves righteousness and justice. The earth is full of the loving kindness of Yahweh. |
|
By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth. | By Yahweh’s word, the heavens were made: all their army by the breath of his mouth. |
Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose for his inheritance. | Blessed is the nation whose God is Yahweh, the people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance. |
But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love. | Behold, Yahweh’s eye is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his loving kindness. |
May your unfailing love be with us, Lord, even as we put our hope in you. | Let your loving kindness be on us, Yahweh, since we have hoped in you. |
