Hallelujah. I will thank the Lord with all my heart, in the assembled congregation of his people.
2 Iṣẹ́ Olúwa tóbi, àwọn tí ó ní inú dídùn, ń ṣe àṣàrò nínú rẹ̀.
Great are the things that the Lord has done, worthy of study by those who love them.
3 Iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ni ọláńlá àti ògo: àti òdodo rẹ̀ dúró láéláé.
Majestic and glorious is his work, and his righteousness abides forever.
4 Ó ti ṣe iṣẹ́ ìyanu rẹ̀, láti máa rántí: Olúwa ni olóore-ọ̀fẹ́ àti pé ó kún fún àánú.
For his marvelous deeds he has won renown; the Lord is gracious and full of compassion.
5 Ó ti fi oúnjẹ fún àwọn tí ó bẹ̀rù rẹ̀: òun ń rántí májẹ̀mú rẹ̀.
Food he gives to those who fear him, always he remembers his covenant.

His mighty works he has shown to his people, in giving to them the nations for heritage.
7 Iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ rẹ̀ jẹ́ òtítọ́ àti ìdájọ́; gbogbo òfin rẹ̀ sì dájú.
All that he does is faithful and right, all his behests are firm and sure.
8 Wọ́n dúró láé àti láé, ní òtítọ́ àti òdodo ni a ṣe wọ́n.
They are established for ever and ever, executed with truth and uprightness.

To his people he sent redemption, he has appointed his covenant forever. His name is holy and awe-inspiring.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom those who keep it are wise indeed. His praise abides for ever and ever.
