Read the chapter

1Rejoice in the LORD, O righteous ones; it is fitting for the upright to praise Him. ✦ 2Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to Him with ten strings. ✦ 3Sing to Him a new song; play skillfully with a shout of joy. ✦ 4For the word of the LORD is upright, and all His work is trustworthy. ✦ 5The LORD loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of His loving devotion. ✦ 6By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, and all the stars by the breath of His mouth. ✦ 7He piles up the waters of the sea; He puts the depths into storehouses. ✦ 8Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the people of the world revere Him. ✦ 9For He spoke, and it came to be; He commanded, and it stood firm. ✦ 10The LORD frustrates the plans of the nations; He thwarts the devices of the peoples. ✦ 11The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the purposes of His heart to all generations. ✦ 12Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He has chosen as His inheritance! ✦ 13The LORD looks down from heaven; He sees all the sons of men. ✦ 14From His dwelling place He gazes on all who inhabit the earth. ✦ 15He shapes the hearts of each; He considers all their works. ✦ 16No king is saved by his vast army; no warrior is delivered by his great strength. ✦ 17A horse is a vain hope for salvation; even its great strength cannot save. ✦ 18Surely the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear Him, on those whose hope is in His loving devotion ✦ 19to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine. ✦ 20Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield. ✦ 21For our hearts rejoice in Him, since we trust in His holy name. ✦ 22May Your loving devotion rest on us, O LORD, as we put our hope in You. ✦

Christ at the center

The Psalms are Christ's own prayer book and a gallery of his portraits — the suffering one of Psalm 22, the risen Lord of Psalm 16, the priest-king of Psalm 110, the Son to whom the nations are given.
