The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;
all who follow His instructions have good insight.
His praise endures forever.

Hallelujah!
I will praise the Lord with all my heart
in the assembly of the upright and in the congregation.

He has sent redemption to His people.
He has ordained His covenant forever.
His name is holy and awe-inspiring.

The Lord’s works are great,
studied by all who delight in them.

The works of His hands are truth and justice;
all His instructions are trustworthy.

He has caused His wonderful works to be remembered.
The Lord is gracious and compassionate.

He has provided food for those who fear Him;
He remembers His covenant forever.

All that He does is splendid and majestic;
His righteousness endures forever.

He has shown His people the power of His works
by giving them the inheritance of the nations.

They are established forever and ever,
enacted in truth and in what is right.
