Exultate, justi.

1 Rejoice in the | Lord, • O ye | righteous; ||
for it becometh | well the | just • to be | thankful. ||
2 Praise the | Lord with | harp; ||
sing praises unto him with the lute, and | instru•ment of | ten | strings. ||
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 | righteous•ness and | judgment; ||
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 | 3 breath of • his | mouth. ||
6 By the word of the Lord were the | heavens | made; ||
and all the | host of them • by the | 3 breath of • his | mouth. ||
7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together, as it | were up•on 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, 3 all | ye that | dwell • in the | world. ||
9 For he | spake, and • it was | done; ||
he com- | manded, | 3 and it • stood | fast. ||
10 The Lord bringeth the counsel of the | 3 heathen to | nought, ||
and maketh the devices of the people to be of none effect, * and | casteth • out the | 3 counsels of | princes. ||
11 The counsel of the Lord shall en- | dure for | ever, ||
and the thoughts of his heart from gener- | 3 ation to | gener- | ation. ||
12 Blessed are the people whose God is the | Lord JE- | HOVAH; ||
and blessed are the folk that he hath chosen to | him, • to be | his in- | heri•tance. ||
13 The Lord looked down from heaven, and beheld all the | 3 children of | men; ||
from the habitation of his dwelling, he considereth 3 all | them that | dwell • on the | earth. ||
13 The Lord looketh down from heaven, and beholdeth all the | 3 children of | men; ||
from the habitation of his dwelling, he considereth 3 all | them that | dwell • on the | earth. ||
14 He fashioneth | all the | hearts of • them, ||
and under- | standeth | all their | works. ||
15 There is no king that can be saved by the | multi•tude of an | host; ||
neither is any mighty man de- | livered | by much | strength. ||
16 A horse is counted but a | vain • thing to | save a • man; ||
neither shall he deliver | any • man | by his • great | strength. ||
17 Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, * and upon them that put their | trust • in his | mercy; ||
18 To deliver their soul from death, and to | feed them • in the | time of | dearth. ||
19 Our soul hath patiently | tarried • for the | Lord; ||
for | 3 he is • our | help • and our | shield. ||
20 For our | heart • shall re- | joice in • him; ||
because we have | hoped • in his | holy | Name. ||
21 Let thy merciful kindness, O | Lord, • be up- | on us, ||
like as we do | put our | trust in | thee. ||
Glory | be • to the | Father, ||
and to the Son, | and • to the | Holy | Ghost; ||
As it | was in • the be- | ginning, ||
is now, and ever shall be, * | world with•out | end. A- | men. ||
