1. Hallelujah!Give thanks to the Lord because he is good,because his mercy endures forever.
2. Who can speak about all the mighty things the Lord has done?Who can announce all the things for which he is worthy of praise?
3. Blessed are those who defend justiceand do what is right at all times.
4. Remember me, O Lord, when you show favor to your people.Come to help me with your salvation
5. so that I may see the prosperity of your chosen ones,find joy in our people’s happiness,and brag with the people who belong to you.
6. We have sinned, and so did our ancestors.We have done wrong.We are guilty.
7. When our ancestors were in Egypt,they gave no thought to your miracles.They did not remember your numerous acts of mercy,so they rebelled at the sea, the Red Sea.
8. He saved them because of his reputationso that he could make his mighty power known.
9. He angrily commanded the Red Sea, and it dried up.He led them through deep water as though it were a desert.
10. He rescued them from the power of the one who hated them.He rescued them from the enemy.
