Read the chapter

1Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright. ✦ 2Praise the LORD with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings. ✦ 3Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise. ✦ 4For the word of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in truth. ✦ 5He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the LORD. ✦ 6By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. ✦ 7He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses. ✦ 8Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him. ✦ 9For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast. ✦ 10The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect. ✦ 11The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations. ✦ 12Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance. ✦ 13The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men. ✦ 14From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth. ✦ 15He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works. ✦ 16There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength. ✦ 17An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength. ✦ 18Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy; ✦ 19To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine. ✦ 20Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he is our help and our shield. ✦ 21For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name. ✦ 22Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we hope in thee. ✦

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.
