Blessed is the man who (A)makes
    the Lord his trust,
who does not turn to the proud,
    to those who (B)go astray after a lie!

    your (C)wondrous deeds and your (D)thoughts toward us;
    none can compare with you!
I will proclaim and tell of them,
    yet they are (E)more than can be told.

    but you have given me an open (G)ear.[a]
Burnt offering and sin offering
    you have not required.
