2. Give thanks to the Lord with the lyre; Sing praises to Him with a harp of ten strings.
3. Sing to Him a new song; Play skillfully with a shout of joy.
4. For the word of the Lord is upright, And all His work is done in faithfulness.
5. He loves righteousness and justice; The earth is full of the lovingkindness of the Lord.
6. By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, And by the breath of His mouth all their host.
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 fast.
10. The Lord nullifies the counsel of the nations; He frustrates the plans of the peoples.
11. The counsel of the Lord stands forever, The plans of His heart from generation to generation.
