3 Sing unto the Lord a new song: sing praises lustily unto him with a good courage.
4 For the word of the Lord is true: and all his works are faithful.
5 He loveth righteousness, and judgement: the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.
6 By the word of the Lord were the heavens made: and all the hosts of them by the breath of his mouth.
7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together, as it were upon an heap: and layeth up the deep, as in a treasure-house.
8 Let all the earth fear the Lord: stand in awe of him, all ye that dwell in the world.
9 For he spake, and it was done: he commanded, and it stood fast.
10 The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: and maketh the devices of the people to be of none effect, and casteth out the counsels of princes.
11 The counsel of the Lord shall endure for ever: and the thoughts of his heart from generation to generation.
12 Blessed are the people, whose God is the Lord Jehovah: and blessed are the folk, that he hath chosen to him, to be his inheritance.
