Praise to the Creator

(Psalm 148:1-14)
1
A psalm for David. Rejoice in the Lord, O ye just: praise becometh the upright.
2
Give praise to the Lord on the harp; sing to him with the psaltery, the instrument of ten strings.
3
Sing to him a new canticle, sing well unto him with a loud noise.
4
For the word of the Lord is right, and all his works are done with faithfulness.
5
He loveth mercy and judgment; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.
6
By the word of the Lord the heavens were established; and all the power of them by the spirit of his mouth:
7
Gathering together the waters of the sea, as in a vessel; laying up the depths in storehouses.
8
Let all the earth fear the Lord, and let all the inhabitants of the world be in awe of him.
9
For he spoke and they were made: he commanded and they were created.
10
The Lord bringeth to naught the counsels of nations; and he rejecteth the devices of people, and casteth away the counsels of princes.
11
But the counsel of the Lord standeth for ever: the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12
Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord: the people whom he hath chosen for his inheritance.
13
The Lord hath looked from heaven: he hath beheld all the sons of men.
14
From his habitation which he hath prepared, he hath looked upon all that dwell on the earth.
15
He who hath made the hearts of every one of them: who understandeth all their works.
16
The king is not saved by a great army: nor shall the giant be saved by his own great strength.
17
Vain is the horse for safety: neither shall he be saved by the abundance of his strength.
18
Behold the eyes of the Lord are on them that fear him: and on them that hope in his mercy.
19
To deliver their souls from death; and feed them in famine.
20
Our soul waiteth for the Lord: for he is our helper and protector.
21
For in him our heart shall rejoice: and in his holy name we have trusted.
22
Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, as we have hoped in thee.

Praise to the Creator

(Psalm 148:1-14)
1
Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous! Praise is fitting for the upright.
2
Give thanks to the LORD with the lyre. Sing praises to him with the harp of ten strings.
3
Sing to him a new song. Play skillfully with a shout of joy!
4
For the LORD’s word is right. All his work is done in faithfulness.
5
He loves righteousness and justice. The earth is full of the loving kindness of the LORD.
6
By the LORD’s word, the heavens were made: all their army by the breath of his mouth.
7
He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap. He lays up the deeps in storehouses.
8
Let all the earth fear the LORD. Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9
For he spoke, and it was done. He commanded, and it stood firm.
10
The LORD brings the counsel of the nations to nothing. He makes the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.
11
The counsel of the LORD stands fast forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12
Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance.
13
The LORD looks from heaven. He sees all the sons of men.
14
From the place of his habitation he looks out on all the inhabitants of the earth,
15
he who fashions all of their hearts; and he considers all of their works.
16
There is no king saved by the multitude of an army. A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.
17
A horse is a vain thing for safety, neither does he deliver any by his great power.
18
Behold, the LORD’s eye is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his loving kindness,
19
to deliver their soul from death, to keep them alive in famine.
20
Our soul has waited for the LORD. He is our help and our shield.
21
For our heart rejoices in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
22
Let your loving kindness be on us, LORD, since we have hoped in you.
