⁶ The Lord works righteousness^(M)
    and justice for all the oppressed.^(N)

⁷ He made known^(O) his ways^(P) to Moses,
    his deeds^(Q) to the people of Israel:
⁸ The Lord is compassionate and gracious,^(R)
    slow to anger, abounding in love.
⁹ He will not always accuse,
    nor will he harbor his anger forever;^(S)
10 he does not treat us as our sins deserve^(T)
    or repay us according to our iniquities.
¹¹ For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
    so great is his love^(U) for those who fear him;^(V)
12 as far as the east is from the west,
    so far has he removed our transgressions^(W) from us.

¹³ As a father has compassion^(X) on his children,
    so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him;
¹⁴ for he knows how we are formed,^(Y)
    he remembers that we are dust.^(Z)
15 The life of mortals is like grass,^(AA)
    they flourish like a flower^(AB) of the field;
¹⁶ the wind blows^(AC) over it and it is gone,
    and its place^(AD) remembers it no more.
¹⁷ But from everlasting to everlasting
    the Lord’s love is with those who fear him,
    and his righteousness with their children’s children^(AE)—
¹⁸ with those who keep his covenant^(AF)
    and remember^(AG) to obey his precepts.^(AH)

¹⁹ The Lord has established his throne^(AI) in heaven,
    and his kingdom rules^(AJ) over all.

I will extol the Lord^(A) with all my heart^(B)
    in the council^(C) of the upright and in the assembly.^(D)

    and his righteousness endures^(G) forever.

    he remembers his covenant^(K) forever.

⁶ He has shown his people the power of his works,^(L)
    giving them the lands of other nations.^(M)
7 The works of his hands^(N) are faithful and just;
    all his precepts are trustworthy.^(O)
8 They are established for ever^(P) and ever,
    enacted in faithfulness and uprightness.
⁹ He provided redemption^(Q) for his people;
    he ordained his covenant forever—
    holy and awesome^(R) is his name.

¹⁰ The fear of the Lord^(S) is the beginning of wisdom;^(T)
    all who follow his precepts have good understanding.^(U)
    To him belongs eternal praise.^(V)

³ The sea looked and fled,^(D)
    the Jordan turned back;^(E)
4 the mountains leaped^(F) like rams,
    the hills like lambs.

⁵ Why was it, sea, that you fled?^(G)
    Why, Jordan, did you turn back?
⁶ Why, mountains, did you leap like rams,
    you hills, like lambs?

⁷ Tremble, earth,^(H) at the presence of the Lord,
    at the presence of the God of Jacob,
⁸ who turned the rock into a pool,
    the hard rock into springs of water.^(I)
