To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork.

Your mercy, O LORD, [is] in the heavens; Your faithfulness [reaches] to the clouds.

Your righteousness [is] like the great mountains; Your judgments [are] a great deep; O LORD, You preserve man and beast.

Let the heavens declare His righteousness, For God Himself [is] Judge. Selah

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

And the heavens will praise Your wonders, O LORD; Your faithfulness also in the assembly of the saints.

Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth! For the LORD has spoken: "I have nourished and brought up children, And they have rebelled against Me;

"For true and righteous [are] His judgments, because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication; and He has avenged on her the blood of His servants [shed] by her."

Oh, let the nations be glad and sing for joy! For You shall judge the people righteously, And govern the nations on earth. Selah

He has remembered His mercy and His faithfulness to the house of Israel; All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

"but truly, as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD --

"The LORD lives! Blessed [be] my Rock! Let God be exalted, The Rock of my salvation!

And one cried to another and said: "Holy, holy, holy [is] the LORD of hosts; The whole earth [is] full of His glory!"

That they may know from the rising of the sun to its setting That [there is] none besides Me. I [am] the LORD, and [there is] no other;

For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, And deep darkness the people; But the LORD will arise over you, And His glory will be seen upon you.

The Gentiles shall come to your light, And kings to the brightness of your rising.

For the earth will be filled With the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, As the waters cover the sea.

"In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.
