I will ^(C1)sing of mercy and ^(F1)justice; To You, LORD, I will sing praises.

I will ^(C1)carefully attend to the ^(F1)blameless way. When will You come to me? I will walk within my house in the ^(F2)(C2)integrity of my heart.

I will set no ^(C1)worthless thing before my eyes; I hate the ^(F1)work of those who ^(C2)fall away; It shall not cling to me.

A ^(C1)perverse heart shall leave me; I will know no evil.

Whoever secretly ^(C1)slanders his neighbor, him I will ^(F1)destroy; I will not endure one who has a ^(C2)haughty look and an arrogant heart.

My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; One who walks in a ^(F1)(C1)blameless way is one who will serve me.

One who ^(C1)practices deceit shall not dwell within my house; One who speaks lies ^(C2)shall not ^(F1)maintain his position before me.

^(C1)Every morning I will ^(F1)(C2)destroy all the wicked of the land, So as to ^(C3)eliminate from the ^(C4)city of the LORD all those who do injustice.

^(C1)Bless the LORD, my soul, And all that is within me, bless His ^(C2)holy name.

Bless the LORD, my soul, And ^(C1)do not forget any of His benefits;

Who ^(C1)pardons all your guilt, Who ^(C2)heals all your diseases;

Who ^(C1)redeems your life from the pit, Who ^(C2)crowns you with favor and compassion;

Who ^(C1)satisfies your ^(F1)years with good things, So that your youth is ^(C2)renewed like the eagle.

The LORD ^(C1)performs ^(F1)righteous deeds And judgments for all who are ^(C2)oppressed.

He ^(C1)made known His ways to Moses, His ^(C2)deeds to the sons of Israel.

The LORD is ^(C1)compassionate and gracious, ^(C2)Slow to anger and abounding in mercy.

He ^(C1)will not always contend with us, Nor will He ^(C2)keep His anger forever.

He has ^(C1)not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor rewarded us according to our guilty deeds.

For as high ^(C1)as the heavens are above the earth, So great is His mercy toward those who ^(F1)fear Him.

As far as the east is from the west, So far has He ^(C1)removed our wrongdoings from us.

Just ^(C1)as a father has compassion on his children, So the LORD has compassion on those who ^(F1)fear Him.

For ^(C1)He Himself knows ^(F1)our form; He ^(C2)is mindful that we are nothing but ^(C3)dust.

As for man, his days are ^(C1)like grass; Like a ^(C2)flower of the field, so he flourishes.

When the ^(C1)wind has passed over it, it is no more, And its ^(C2)place no longer knows about it.

But the ^(F1)(C1)mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting for those who ^(F2)fear Him, And His justice ^(C2)to the children's children,

To ^(C1)those who keep His covenant And remember His precepts, so as to do them.

The LORD has established His ^(C1)throne in the heavens, And His ^(F1)(C2)sovereignty rules over ^(F2)all.

Bless the LORD, you ^(C1)His angels, ^(C2)Mighty in strength, who ^(C3)perform His word, ^(C4)Obeying the voice of His word!

Bless the LORD, all you ^(C1)His ^(F1)angels, You ^(C2)who serve Him, doing His will.

Bless the LORD, ^(C1)all you works of His, In all places of His dominion; Bless the LORD, my soul!

^(C1)My heart is steadfast, God; I will sing, I will sing praises also with my ^(F1)soul.

Awake, harp and lyre; I will awaken the dawn!

I will give thanks to You, LORD, among the peoples, And I will sing praises to You among the nations.

For Your ^(C1)mercy is great ^(C2)above the heavens, And Your truth reaches to the skies.

^(C1)Be exalted above the heavens, God, And may Your glory be above all the earth.

^(C1)So that Your beloved may be rescued, Save with Your right hand, and answer me!

God has spoken in His ^(F1)holiness: "I will triumph, I will divide up Shechem, And measure out the Valley of Succoth.

-"Gilead is Mine, Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the ^(F1)helmet of My head; ^(C1)Judah is My ^(F2)scepter.

-"Moab is My washbowl; I will throw My sandal over Edom; I will shout aloud over Philistia."

^(C1)Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who ^(F1)will lead me to Edom?

God, have You Yourself not ^(C1)rejected us? And will You not go forth with our armies, God?

Give us help against the enemy, For ^(C1)deliverance ^(F1)by man is worthless.

^(F1)Through God we will do valiantly, And ^(C1)it is He who will trample down our enemies.
