- I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing praises to you among the nations. - My lips will shout for joy,
when I sing praises to you;
my soul also, which you have redeemed. - Sing to God, sing praises to his name;
lift up a song to him who rides through the deserts;
his name is the Lord;
exult before him!
Father of the fatherless and protector of widows
is God in his holy habitation. - Sing praises to the Lord, for he has done gloriously;
let this be made known in all the earth. - I will be glad and exult in you;
I will sing praise to your name, O Most High. - But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
- Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord! - I will bless the Lord at all times;
his praise shall continually be in my mouth. - My mouth is filled with your praise,
and with your glory all the day. - About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.
- Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed;
save me, and I shall be saved,
for you are my praise. - Take with you words
and return to the Lord;
say to him,
“Take away all iniquity;
accept what is good,
and we will pay with bulls
the vows of our lips.”
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
