1 Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with [my] whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and [in] the congregation.
你們要讚美耶和華! 我要在正直人的大會中,並公會中, 一心稱謝耶和華。
2 The works of the LORD [are] great, sought out by all them that have pleasure in them.
耶和華的作為本為大; 凡喜愛的都必考察。
3 His work [is] honorable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD [is] gracious and full of compassion.

7 The works of his hands [are] verity and judgment; all his commandments [are] sure.
他手所行的是誠實公平; 他的訓詞都是確實的,
8 They stand fast for ever and ever, [and are] done in truth and uprightness.

9 He sent redemption to his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend [is] his name.
