[1] Rejoice in 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, O ye righteous, praise is comely for the upright.
[2] Give thanks unto 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 with harp, sing praises unto Him with the psaltery of ten strings.
[3] Sing unto Him a new song; play skilfully amid shouts of joy.
[4] For the word of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 is upright; and all His work is done in faithfulness.
[5] He loveth righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the lovingkindness of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇.
[6] By the word of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of His mouth.
[7] He gathereth the waters of the sea together as a heap; He layeth up the deeps in storehouses.
[8] Let all the earth fear 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
[9] For He spoke, and it was; He commanded, and it stood.
[10] 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 bringeth the counsel of the nations to nought; He maketh the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.
[11] The counsel of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 standeth for ever, the thoughts of His heart to all generations.
[12] Happy is the nation whose God is 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; the people whom He hath chosen for His own inheritance.
[13] 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 looketh from heaven; He beholdeth all the sons of men;
[14] From the place of His habitation He looketh intently upon all t inhabitants of the earth;
[15] He that fashioneth the hearts of them all, that considereth all their doings.
[16] A king is not saved by the multitude of a host; a mighty man is not delivered by great strength.
[17] A horse is a vain thing for safety; neither doth it afford escape by its great strength.
[18] Behold, the eye of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 is toward them that fear Him, toward them that wait for His mercy;
[19] To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
[20] Our soul hath waited for 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; He is our help and our shield.
[21] For in Him doth our heart rejoice, because we have trusted in His holy name.
[22] Let Thy mercy, O 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, be upon us, according as we have waited for Thee.
