1. Alleluia. Confess to the Lord, for he is good, for his mercy is with every generation.
2. Who will declare the powers of the Lord? Who make a hearing for all his praises?
3. Blessed are those who keep judgment and who do justice at all times.
4. Remember us, O Lord, with good will for your people. Visit us with your salvation,
5. so that we may see the goodness of your elect, so that we may rejoice in the joy of your nation, so that you may be praised along with your inheritance.
6. We have sinned, as have our fathers. We have acted unjustly; we have wrought iniquity.
7. Our fathers did not understand your miracles in Egypt. They did not remember the multitude of your mercies. And they provoked you, while going up to the sea, even the Red Sea.
