I will extol the Lord with all my heart in the council of the upright and in the assembly.

2 Great are the works of the Lord; they are pondered by all who delight in them.

3 Glorious and majestic are His deeds, and His righteousness endures forever.

4 He has caused his wonders to be remembered; the Lord is gracious and compassionate.

5 He provides food for those who fear Him; He remembers his covenant forever.

6 He has shown His people the power of his works, giving them the lands of other nations.

7 The works of His hands are faithful and just; all his precepts are trustworthy.

8 They are established for ever and ever,enacted in faithfulness and uprightness.

9 He provided redemption for his people; he ordained his covenant forever—Holy and awesome is His name.

10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow his precepts have good understanding. To him belongs eternal praise.
