Book Order Plan

¹Come, let’s sing for joy to the LORD, Let’s shout joyfully to the rock of our salvation.

²Let’s come before His presence with a song of thanksgiving, Let’s shout joyfully to Him in songs with instruments.

³For the LORD is a great God And a great King above all gods,

⁴In whose hand are the depths of the earth, The peaks of the mountains are also His.

⁵The sea is His, for it was He who made it, And His hands formed the dry land.

⁶Come, let’s worship and bow down, Let’s kneel before the LORD our Maker.

⁷For He is our God, And we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His hand. Today, if you will hear His voice,

⁸Do not harden your hearts as at Meribah, As on the day of Massah in the wilderness,

⁹“When your fathers put Me to the test, They tested Me, though they had seen My work.

¹⁰For forty years I was disgusted with that generation, And said they are a people who err in their heart, And they do not know My ways.

¹¹Therefore I swore in My anger, They certainly shall not enter My rest.”

¹Sing to the LORD a new song; Sing to the LORD, all the earth.

²Sing to the LORD, bless His name; Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.

³Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all the peoples.

⁴For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods.

⁵For all the gods of the peoples are idols, But the LORD made the heavens.

⁶Splendor and majesty are before Him, Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.

⁷Ascribe to the LORD, you families of the peoples, Ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.

⁸Ascribe to the LORD the glory of His name; Bring an offering and come into His courtyards.

⁹Worship the LORD in holy attire; Tremble before Him, all the earth.

¹⁰Say among the nations, “The LORD reigns; Indeed, the world is firmly established, it will not be moved; He will judge the peoples fairly.”

¹¹May the heavens be joyful, and may the earth rejoice; May the sea roar, and all it contains;

¹²May the field be jubilant, and all that is in it. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy

¹³Before 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.

¹The LORD reigns, may the earth rejoice; May the many islands be joyful.

²Clouds and thick darkness surround Him; Righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

³Fire goes before Him And burns up His enemies all around.

⁴His lightning lit up the world; The earth saw it and trembled.

⁵The mountains melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

⁶The heavens declare His righteousness, And all the peoples have seen His glory.

⁷May all those be ashamed who serve carved images, Who boast in idols; Worship Him, all you gods.

⁸Zion heard this and was joyful, And the daughters of Judah have rejoiced Because of Your judgments, LORD.

⁹For You are the LORD Most High over all the earth; You are exalted far above all gods.

¹⁰Hate evil, you who love the LORD, Who watches over the souls of His godly ones; He saves them from the hand of the wicked.

¹¹Light is sown like seed for the righteous, And gladness for the upright in heart.

¹²Be joyful in the LORD, you righteous ones, And praise the mention of His holy name.

¹Sing a new song to the LORD, For He has done wonderful things, His right hand and His holy arm have gained the victory for Him.

²The LORD has made His salvation known; He has revealed His righteousness in the sight of the nations.

³He has remembered His graciousness and His faithfulness to the house of Israel; All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

⁴Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the earth; Be cheerful and sing for joy and sing praises.

⁵Sing praises to the LORD with the lyre, With the lyre and the sound of melody.

⁶With trumpets and the sound of the horn Shout joyfully before the King, the LORD.

⁷May the sea roar and all it contains, The world and those who dwell in it.

⁸May the rivers clap their hands, May the mountains sing together for joy

⁹Before the LORD, for He is coming to judge the earth; He will judge the world with righteousness And the peoples with fairness.

¹The LORD reigns, the peoples tremble! He sits enthroned above the cherubim, the earth quakes!

²The LORD is great in Zion, And He is exalted above all the peoples.

³May they praise Your great and awesome name; Holy is He.

⁴The strength of the King loves justice; You have established order; You have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.

⁵Exalt the LORD our God And worship at His footstool; Holy is He.

⁶Moses and Aaron were among His priests, And Samuel was among those who called on His name; They called upon the LORD and He answered them.

⁷He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud; They kept His testimonies And the statute that He gave them.

⁸LORD our God, You answered them; You were a forgiving God to them, And yet an avenger of their evil deeds.

⁹Exalt the LORD our God And worship at His holy hill, For the LORD our God is holy.

¹Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the earth.

²Serve the LORD with jubilation; Come before Him with rejoicing.

³Know that the LORD Himself is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

⁴Enter His gates with thanksgiving, And His courtyards with praise. Give thanks to Him, bless His name.

⁵For the LORD is good; His mercy is everlasting And His faithfulness is to all generations.

¹I will sing of mercy and justice; To You, LORD, I will sing praises.

²I will carefully attend to the blameless way. When will You come to me? I will walk within my house in the integrity of my heart.

³I will set no worthless thing before my eyes; I hate the work of those who fall away; It shall not cling to me.

⁴A perverse heart shall leave me; I will know no evil.

⁵Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, him I will destroy; I will not endure one who has a haughty look and an arrogant heart.

⁶My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; One who walks in a blameless way is one who will serve me.

⁷One who practices deceit shall not dwell within my house; One who speaks lies shall not maintain his position before me.

⁸Every morning I will destroy all the wicked of the land, So as to eliminate from the city of the LORD all those who do injustice.

¹Hear my prayer, LORD! And let my cry for help come to You.

²Do not hide Your face from me on the day of my distress; Incline Your ear to me; On the day when I call answer me quickly.

³For my days have ended in smoke, And my bones have been scorched like a hearth.

⁴My heart has been struck like grass and has withered, Indeed, I forget to eat my bread.

⁵Because of the loudness of my groaning My bones cling to my flesh.

⁶I resemble a pelican of the wilderness; I have become like an owl of the ruins.

⁷I lie awake, I have become like a solitary bird on a housetop.

⁸My enemies have taunted me all day long; Those who deride me have used my name as a curse.

⁹For I have eaten ashes like bread, And mixed my drink with weeping

¹⁰Because of Your indignation and Your wrath; For You have lifted me up and thrown me away.

¹¹My days are like a lengthened shadow, And I wither away like grass.

¹²But You, LORD, remain forever, And Your name remains to all generations.

¹³You will arise and have compassion on Zion; For it is time to be gracious to her, For the appointed time has come.

¹⁴Surely Your servants take pleasure in her stones, And feel pity for her dust.

¹⁵So the nations will fear the name of the LORD, And all the kings of the earth, Your glory.

¹⁶For the LORD has built up Zion; He has appeared in His glory.

¹⁷He has turned His attention to the prayer of the destitute And has not despised their prayer.

¹⁸This will be written for the generation to come, That a people yet to be created may praise the LORD:

¹⁹For He looked down from His holy height; From heaven the LORD looked upon the earth,

²⁰To hear the groaning of the prisoner, To set free those who were doomed to death,

²¹So that people may tell of the name of the LORD in Zion, And His praise in Jerusalem,

²²When the peoples are gathered together, And the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.

²³He has broken my strength in the way; He has shortened my days.

²⁴I say, “My God, do not take me away in the middle of my days, Your years are throughout all generations.

²⁵In time of old You founded the earth, And the heavens are the work of Your hands.

²⁶Even they will perish, but You endure; All of them will wear out like a garment; Like clothing You will change them and they will pass away.

²⁷But You are the same, And Your years will not come to an end.

²⁸The children of Your servants will continue, And their descendants will be established before You.”

¹Bless the LORD, my soul, And all that is within me, bless His holy name.

²Bless the LORD, my soul, And do not forget any of His benefits;

³Who pardons all your guilt, Who heals all your diseases;

⁴Who redeems your life from the pit, Who crowns you with favor and compassion;

⁵Who satisfies your years with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle.

⁶The LORD performs righteous deeds And judgments for all who are oppressed.

⁷He made known His ways to Moses, His deeds to the sons of Israel.

⁸The LORD is compassionate and gracious, Slow to anger and abounding in mercy.

⁹He will not always contend with us, Nor will He keep His anger forever.

¹⁰He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor rewarded us according to our guilty deeds.

¹¹For as high as the heavens are above the earth, So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him.

¹²As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our wrongdoings from us.

¹³Just as a father has compassion on his children, So the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him.

¹⁴For He Himself knows our form; He is mindful that we are nothing but dust.

¹⁵As for man, his days are like grass; Like a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

¹⁶When the wind has passed over it, it is no more, And its place no longer knows about it.

¹⁷But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting for those who fear Him, And His justice to the children’s children,

¹⁸To those who keep His covenant And remember His precepts, so as to do them.

¹⁹The LORD has established His throne in the heavens, And His sovereignty rules over all.

²⁰Bless the LORD, you His angels, Mighty in strength, who perform His word, Obeying the voice of His word!

²¹Bless the LORD, all you His angels, You who serve Him, doing His will.

²²Bless the LORD, all you works of His, In all places of His dominion; Bless the LORD, my soul!
