2 Play the lyre and praise the Lord. Play the ten-stringed harp for him.
3 Sing a new song to him. Play it well and sing it loud!
4 The Lord’S word is true, and he is faithful in everything he does.
5 He loves goodness and justice. The Lord’S faithful love fills the earth.
6 The Lord spoke the command, and the world was made. The breath from his mouth created everything in the heavens.
7 He gathered together the water of the sea. He put the ocean in its place.
8 Everyone on earth should fear and respect the Lord. All the people in the world should fear him,
