your right hand sustains me,
and your goodness makes me great.
You broadened the path beneath me
so that my feet have never stumbled. - The heavens proclaim the glory of God;
the firmament shows forth the work of his hands.
One day imparts that message to the next,
and night conveys that knowledge to night. - The law of the Lord is perfect,
affording refreshment to the soul.
The decree of the Lord is worthy of trust,
imparting wisdom to the simple. - The precepts of the Lord are right,
causing the heart to rejoice.
The commands of the Lord are clear,
giving light to the eyes. - Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart
find favor in your sight,
O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer. - May he give you your heart’s desire
and grant you success in all your plans. - Some trust in chariots, and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the Lord, our God. - The Lord is my shepherd;
there is nothing I shall lack.
He makes me lie down in green pastures;
he leads me to tranquil streams. - Even though I wander
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are at my side,
with your rod and your staff
that comfort me. - Only goodness and kindness will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
forever and ever. - The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it,
the world and all who live in it. - Who is this King of glory?
The Lord of hosts:
he is the King of glory. Selah - Make your ways known to me, O Lord;
teach me your paths. - Guide me in your truth and instruct me,
for you are God, my Savior,
and in you I hope all the day long. - Be mindful, O Lord, that mercy and kindness
have been yours from of old.
Remember not the sins of my youth
or my many transgressions,
but remember me in your kindness,
for the sake of your goodness, O Lord. - Good and upright is the Lord;
therefore, he instructs sinners in his ways.
He guides the humble in what is right
and teaches them the path to follow. - The Lord is my light and my salvation;
whom should I fear?

of whom should I be afraid? - Even if an army encamps against me,
my heart will not succumb to fear;
even if war breaks out against me,
I will not have my trust shaken. - There is only one thing I ask of the Lord,
just one thing I seek:
to dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life,
so that I may enjoy the beauty of the Lord
and gaze on his temple. - I am confident that I will behold the goodness of the Lord
in the land of the living. - Place your hope in the Lord:
be strong and courageous in your heart,
and place your hope in the Lord. - The Lord is my strength and my shield;
my heart places its trust in him.
He has helped me, and I exult;
then with my song I praise him. - May the Lord grant strength to his people.
May the Lord bless his people with peace. - For his anger lasts for only a moment,
while his goodwill endures for a lifetime.
Weeping may last throughout the night,
but at daybreak there is rejoicing. - In you, O Lord, I have taken refuge;
let me never be put to shame;
in your righteousness deliver me.
