Sing to the Lord, bless His name;
Proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day.

For great is the Lord and greatly to be praised;
He is to be feared above all gods.

Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
Ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.

Ascribe to the Lord the glory of His name;
Bring an offering and come into His courts.

Before the Lord, for He is coming,
For He is coming to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness
And the peoples in His faithfulness.

Be glad in the Lord, you righteous ones,
And give thanks to His holy name.

A Psalm.
O sing to the Lord a new song,
For He has done wonderful things,
His right hand and His holy arm have gained the victory for Him.

He has remembered His lovingkindness and His faithfulness to the house of Israel;
All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth;
Break forth and sing for joy and sing praises.

Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre,
With the lyre and the sound of melody.

Before the Lord, for He is coming to judge the earth;
He will judge the world with righteousness
And the peoples with equity.

He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud;
They kept His testimonies
And the statute that He gave them.

O Lord our God, You answered them;
You were a forgiving God to them,
And yet an avenger of their evil deeds.

A Psalm for Thanksgiving.
Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth.

Enter His gates with thanksgiving
And His courts with praise.
Give thanks to Him, bless His name.

For the Lord is good;
His lovingkindness is everlasting
And His faithfulness to all generations.

A Psalm of David.
I will sing of lovingkindness and justice,
To You, O Lord, I will sing praises.

I will give heed to the blameless way.
When will You come to me?
I will walk within my house in the integrity of my heart.

My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me;
He who walks in a blameless way is the one who will minister to me.

Every morning I will destroy all the wicked of the land,
So as to cut off from the city of the Lord all those who do iniquity.

A Prayer of the Afflicted when he is faint and pours out his complaint before the Lord.
Hear my prayer, O Lord!
And let my cry for help come to You.

Do not hide Your face from me in the day of my distress;
Incline Your ear to me;
In the day when I call answer me quickly.

My heart has been smitten like grass and has withered away,
Indeed, I forget to eat my bread.

Because of the loudness of my groaning
My bones cling to my flesh.

My enemies have reproached me all day long;
Those who deride me have used my name as a curse.

But You, O Lord, abide forever,
And Your name to all generations.

You will arise and have compassion on Zion;
For it is time to be gracious to her,
For the appointed time has come.

This will be written for the generation to come,
That a people yet to be created may praise the Lord.

To hear the groaning of the prisoner,
To set free those who were doomed to death,

When the peoples are gathered together,
And the kingdoms, to serve the Lord.

I say, “O my God, do not take me away in the midst of my days,
Your years are throughout all generations.

“But You are the same,
And Your years will not come to an end.

He made known His ways to Moses,
His acts to the sons of Israel.

The Lord is compassionate and gracious,
Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness.

He has not dealt with us according to our sins,
Nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.

But the lovingkindness of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear Him,
And His righteousness to children’s children,

To those who keep His covenant
And remember His precepts to do them.

The mountains rose; the valleys sank down
To the place which You established for them.

You set a boundary that they may not pass over,
So that they will not return to cover the earth.

They give drink to every beast of the field;
The wild donkeys quench their thirst.

He causes the grass to grow for the cattle,
And vegetation for the labor of man,
So that he may bring forth food from the earth,

Man goes forth to his work
And to his labor until evening.

There the ships move along,
And Leviathan, which You have formed to sport in it.

They all wait for You
To give them their food in due season.

You give to them, they gather it up;
You open Your hand, they are satisfied with good.

You hide Your face, they are dismayed;
You take away their spirit, they expire
And return to their dust.

I will sing to the Lord as long as I live;
I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.

Let my meditation be pleasing to Him;
As for me, I shall be glad in the Lord.

Oh give thanks to the Lord, call upon His name;
Make known His deeds among the peoples.

Sing to Him, sing praises to Him;
Speak of all His wonders.

He has remembered His covenant forever,
The word which He commanded to a thousand generations,

The covenant which He made with Abraham,
And His oath to Isaac.

Then He confirmed it to Jacob for a statute,
To Israel as an everlasting covenant,

Saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan
As the portion of your inheritance,”

And they wandered about from nation to nation,
From one kingdom to another people.

He permitted no man to oppress them,
And He reproved kings for their sakes:

“Do not touch My anointed ones,
And do My prophets no harm.”

Until the time that his word came to pass,
The word of the Lord tested him.

To imprison his princes at will,
That he might teach his elders wisdom.

And He caused His people to be very fruitful,
And made them stronger than their adversaries.

He turned their heart to hate His people,
To deal craftily with His servants.

He turned their waters into blood
And caused their fish to die.

He spread a cloud for a covering,
And fire to illumine by night.

Praise the Lord!
Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is good;
For His lovingkindness is everlasting.

Therefore He said that He would destroy them,
Had not Moses His chosen one stood in the breach before Him,
To turn away His wrath from destroying them.

But grumbled in their tents;
They did not listen to the voice of the Lord.

Therefore He swore to them
That He would cast them down in the wilderness,

They joined themselves also to Baal-peor,
And ate sacrifices offered to the dead.

Thus they provoked Him to anger with their deeds,
And the plague broke out among them.

And it was reckoned to him for righteousness,
To all generations forever.

They also provoked Him to wrath at the waters of Meribah,
So that it went hard with Moses on their account;

And served their idols,
Which became a snare to them.

They even sacrificed their sons and their daughters to the demons,

And shed innocent blood,
The blood of their sons and their daughters,
Whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan;
And the land was polluted with the blood.

And He remembered His covenant for their sake,
And relented according to the greatness of His lovingkindness.

Save us, O Lord our God,
And gather us from among the nations,
To give thanks to Your holy name
And glory in Your praise.

Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel,
From everlasting even to everlasting.
And let all the people say, “Amen.”
Praise the Lord!

Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is good,
For His lovingkindness is everlasting.

They wandered in the wilderness in a desert region;
They did not find a way to an inhabited city.

Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble;
He delivered them out of their distresses.

He led them also by a straight way,
To go to an inhabited city.

Let them give thanks to the Lord for His lovingkindness,
And for His wonders to the sons of men!

Therefore He humbled their heart with labor;
They stumbled and there was none to help.

Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble;
He saved them out of their distresses.

Let them give thanks to the Lord for His lovingkindness,
And for His wonders to the sons of men!

Their soul abhorred all kinds of food,
And they drew near to the gates of death.

Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble;
He saved them out of their distresses.

Let them give thanks to the Lord for His lovingkindness,
And for His wonders to the sons of men!

Those who go down to the sea in ships,
Who do business on great waters;

They rose up to the heavens, they went down to the depths;
Their soul melted away in their misery.

Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble,
And He brought them out of their distresses.

He caused the storm to be still,
So that the waves of the sea were hushed.

Then they were glad because they were quiet,
So He guided them to their desired haven.

Let them give thanks to the Lord for His lovingkindness,
And for His wonders to the sons of men!

And there He makes the hungry to dwell,
So that they may establish an inhabited city,

Who is wise? Let him give heed to these things,
And consider the lovingkindnesses of the Lord.

I will give thanks to You, O Lord, among the peoples,
And I will sing praises to You among the nations.

For Your lovingkindness is great above the heavens,
And Your truth reaches to the skies.

Who will bring me into the besieged city?
Who will lead me to Edom?

Through God we will do valiantly,
And it is He who shall tread down our adversaries.
