New Living TranslationChristian Standard Bible
1Let the godly sing for joy to the LORD; it is fitting for the pure to praise him.1Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous ones; praise from the upright is beautiful.
2Praise the LORD with melodies on the lyre; make music for him on the ten-stringed harp.2Praise the LORD with the lyre; make music to him with a ten-stringed harp.
3Sing a new song of praise to him; play skillfully on the harp, and sing with joy.3Sing a new song to him; play skillfully on the strings, with a joyful shout.
4For the word of the LORD holds true, and we can trust everything he does.4For the word of the LORD is right, and all his work is trustworthy.
5He loves whatever is just and good; the unfailing love of the LORD fills the earth.5He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the LORD's unfailing love.
6The LORD merely spoke, and the heavens were created. He breathed the word, and all the stars were born.6The heavens were made by the word of the LORD, and all the stars, by the breath of his mouth.
7He assigned the sea its boundaries and locked the oceans in vast reservoirs.7He gathers the water of the sea into a heap; he puts the depths into storehouses.
8Let the whole world fear the LORD, and let everyone stand in awe of him.8Let the whole earth fear the LORD; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9For when he spoke, the world began! It appeared at his command.9For he spoke, and it came into being; he commanded, and it came into existence.
10The LORD frustrates the plans of the nations and thwarts all their schemes.10The LORD frustrates the counsel of the nations; he thwarts the plans of the peoples.
11But the LORD’s plans stand firm forever; his intentions can never be shaken.11The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the plans of his heart from generation to generation.
12What joy for the nation whose God is the LORD, whose people he has chosen as his inheritance.12Happy is the nation whose God is the LORD--the people he has chosen to be his own possession!
13The LORD looks down from heaven and sees the whole human race.13The LORD looks down from heaven; he observes everyone.
14From his throne he observes all who live on the earth.14He gazes on all the inhabitants of the earth from his dwelling place.
15He made their hearts, so he understands everything they do.15He forms the hearts of them all; he considers all their works.
16The best-equipped army cannot save a king, nor is great strength enough to save a warrior.16A king is not saved by a large army; a warrior will not be rescued by great strength.
17Don’t count on your warhorse to give you victory— for all its strength, it cannot save you.17The horse is a false hope for safety; it provides no escape by its great power.
18But the LORD watches over those who fear him, those who rely on his unfailing love.18But look, the LORD keeps his eye on those who fear him--those who depend on his faithful love
19He rescues them from death and keeps them alive in times of famine.19to rescue them from death and to keep them alive in famine.
20We put our hope in the LORD. He is our help and our shield.20We wait for the LORD; he is our help and shield.
21In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name.21For our hearts rejoice in him because we trust in his holy name.
22Let your unfailing love surround us, LORD, for our hope is in you alone.22May your faithful love rest on us, LORD, for we put our hope in you.
