Only Version ❧ SM · 6·6·8·6
1 Ye just in God rejoice, praise well th’ upright doth suit. 2 Praise God with harp, with psalt’ry sing to him, on ten string’d lute. 3 Sing to him a new song, aloud play skilfully. 4 For the Lord’s word is right: and all his works in verity.
5 He loveth righteousness, and also equity: the earth replenished is with the Lord’s benignity. 6 By the word of the Lord the heavens had their frame, and by the spirit of his mouth, all the host of the same.
7 The waters of the seas, he gathers as an heap; together as in storehouses he layeth up the deep. 8 Be all the earth in fear, because of Jehovah: let all the dwellers of the world before him stand in awe.
9 Because he did but speak the word, and it was made: he gave out the commandement, and it was firmly stay’d. 10 The Lord to nought doth bring the nations’ counsel; he devices of the people makes of none effect to be.
11 The counsel of the Lord abide for ever shall, the cogitations of his heart to generations all. 12 O blessed nation, whose God Jehovah is: and people whom for heritage chosen he hath for his.
13 The Lord from heaven looks, all sons of men views well. 14 From his firm dwelling he looks forth, on all that on earth dwell. 15 The hearts of all of them alike he fashioneth: and all their operations he well considereth.
16 By multitude of host there is no king saved: nor is by multitude of strength the strong delivered. 17 A horse a vain thing is to be a saviour: nor shall he work deliverance by greatness of his pow’r.
18 On them that do him fear lo, is Jehovah’s eye: upon them that do place their hope on his benignity. 19 To save alive in dearth, and their soul from death free. 20 Our soul doth for Jehovah wait, our help, and shield is he.
21 For our heart joys in him: for in’s pure name trust we. 22 Let thy mercy, Lord, be on us: like as we trust in thee.
