Fill us in the morning with Your loving-kindness. Let us sing for joy and be glad all our days.

Make us glad for as many days as You have made us suffer, and for the years we have seen trouble.

For it is He Who takes you away from the trap, and from the killing sickness.

For He will tell His angels to care for you and keep you in all your ways.

For You have made me glad by what You have done, O Lord. I will sing for joy at the works of Your hands.

For, look, those who hate You will be lost from You forever, O Lord. All those who do wrong will be destroyed.

The Lord rules. He is dressed with great power. The Lord has dressed Himself with strength. For sure, the world is built to last. It will not be moved.

You give him rest from days of trouble, until a hole is dug for the sinful.

For the Lord will not turn away from His people. He will not leave His chosen nation.

For what is decided will be right and good. And all those whose hearts are right will follow it.

Who will rise up for me against the sinful? Who will take a stand for me against those who do wrong?

He has brought back their own sin upon them and will destroy them for their wrong-doing. The Lord our God will destroy them.

For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods.

The sea is His, for He made it. And His hands made the dry land.

For He is our God. And we are the people of His field, and the sheep of His hand. If you hear His voice today,

I was angry with the people of that day for forty years. I said, "They always think wrong thoughts. And they do not know My ways."

For the Lord is great and should be given much praise. He is to be honored with fear above all gods.

For all the gods of the nations are false gods. But the Lord made the heavens.

Let the fields and all that is in them be full of joy. Then all the trees of the land will sing for joy

before the Lord. For He is coming. He is coming to say who is guilty or not on the earth. He will be right in what He decides about the world. And He will be faithful to the people.
