           "Praise the LORD.   I will extol the LORD with all my heart in the council of the
     upright and in the assembly.

           "Great are the works of the LORD;  they are pondered by all who delight in them.
     Glorious and majestic are His deeds, and His righteousness endures forever.

           "He has caused His wonders to be remembered;  the LORD is gracious and com-
     passionate.
           "He provides food for those who fear Him;  He remembers His covenant forever.
    
           "He has shown His people the power of His works, giving them the lands of other
     nations.
           "The works of His hands are faithful and just;  all His precepts are trustworthy.
     They are steadfast for ever and ever, done in faithfulness and uprightness.

     have good understanding.  To Him belongs eternal praise."
