i1 [Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite.] i0 par I will sing of the mercies of Jehovah forever; with my mouth will I make known Your faithfulness from generation to generation.

For I have said, Mercy shall be built up forever; Your faithfulness You shall establish in the heavens.

For Jehovah is good; His mercy is eternal, and His truth endures from generation to generation.

O give thanks unto Jehovah, for He is good! For His mercy is eternal.

O give thanks to Jehovah, for He is good; for His mercy is eternal.

O give thanks to the Lord of lords; for His mercy is eternal:

to Him who by wisdom made the heavens, for His mercy is eternal;

to Him who made great lights, for His mercy is eternal;

the moon and stars to rule by night, for His mercy is eternal.

and brought out Israel from among them, for His mercy is eternal;

to Him who divided the Red Sea in two, for His mercy is eternal;

but overthrew Pharaoh and his army in the Red Sea, for His mercy is eternal.

to Him who struck down great kings, for His mercy is eternal;

Sihon king of the Amorites, for His mercy is eternal;

and gave their land as a heritage, for His mercy is eternal;

Who remembered us in our lowly state, for His mercy is eternal;

Who gives food to all flesh, for His mercy is eternal.

Jehovah has appeared to me from afar, saying, Yea, I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you.

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.

just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blemish before Him in love,

to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He has made us accepted in the Beloved.

which He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and understanding,

but God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,

and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenlies in Christ Jesus,

But we owe thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief in the truth,

to which He called you through our gospel, for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time,

They shall come, and shall declare His righteousness to a people that shall yet be born, that He has done this.

I bring near My righteousness. It shall not be far off, and My salvation shall not delay. And I will place salvation in Zion, My glory for Israel.

Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look on the earth beneath; for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall become old like a garment; and its inhabitants shall die in the same way. But My salvation shall be forever, and My righteousness shall not be broken.

Seventy weeks are decreed regarding your people, and regarding your holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make atonement for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the Holy of Holies.

My people, remember now what Balak, king of Moab, counseled; and what Balaam, the son of Beor, answered him from Shittim to Gilgal, so that you may know the righteousness of Jehovah.

For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; even as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

But now the righteousness of God apart from the Law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,

for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

whom God set forth as a propitiation through faith in His blood, to give evidence of His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed,

Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:

Let Your work appear unto Your servants, and Your glory unto their children.

but showing goodness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.

Jehovah has longed for your fathers, to love them; and He chose their seed after them, you out of all peoples, as it is this day.

But you, Israel, are My servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham, My friend;

Do you not consider what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which Jehovah has chosen, He has even cast them off? Thus they have despised My people, that they should no more be a nation before them.

then I will cast away the seed of Jacob, and David My servant, so that I will not take any of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will bring back their captives, and have mercy on them.

And we preach the gospel to you; the promise which was made to the fathers.

And that He raised Him from the dead, no more to return to corruption, He has spoken thus: I will give you the holy and faithful promises of David.

Now I say that Jesus Christ has become a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises unto the fathers,
