- I will sing to the Lord as long as I live;
I will sing praise to my God while I have being. - O give thanks to the Lord, call on his name,
make known his deeds among the peoples. - Seek the Lord and his strength;
seek his presence continually. - For he satisfies the thirsty,
and the hungry he fills with good things. - He sent out his word and healed them,
and delivered them from destruction. - I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples,
and I will sing praises to you among the nations. - Be exalted, O God, above the heavens,
and let your glory be over all the earth. - The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;
all those who practice it have a good understanding.
His praise endures forever. - Praise the Lord!
Happy are those who fear the Lord,
who greatly delight in his commandments. - It is well with those who deal generously and lend,
who conduct their affairs with justice. - For the righteous will never be moved;
they will be remembered forever. - Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory,
for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness. - Our God is in the heavens;
he does whatever he pleases. - I love the Lord, because he has heard
my voice and my supplications.
Because he inclined his ear to me,
therefore I will call on him as long as I live. - Out of my distress I called on the Lord;
the Lord answered me and set me in a broad place. - With the Lord on my side I do not fear.
What can mortals do to me? - It is better to take refuge in the Lord
than to put confidence in mortals. - This is the day that the Lord has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it. - Save us, we beseech you, O Lord!
O Lord, we beseech you, give us success!
Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord.
We bless you from the house of the Lord. - Happy are those whose way is blameless,
who walk in the law of the Lord. - Happy are those who keep his decrees,
who seek him with their whole heart. - I will praise you with an upright heart,
when I learn your righteous ordinances. - How can young people keep their way pure?
By guarding it according to your word. - With my whole heart I seek you;
do not let me stray from your commandments. - I treasure your word in my heart,
so that I may not sin against you.
I delight in the way of your decrees
as much as in all riches.The Lord our God be with us, as he was with our ancestors; may he not leave us or abandon us. Each of you must give as you have made up your mind, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.Next verse!With image
