I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart,
in the council of the upright, and in the congregation.
The Lord’s works are great,
pondered by all who delight in them.
His work is honour and majesty.
His righteousness endures forever.
The works of his hands are truth and justice.
All his precepts are sure.
He has sent redemption to his people.
He has ordained his covenant forever.
His name is holy and awesome!
His praise endures forever!
