I will sing to you, LORD! I will celebrate your kindness and your justice.
They will celebrate and sing about your matchless mercy and your power to save.
Keep me from any deadly sin. Only you can save me! Then I will shout and sing about your power to save.
Our LORD, I will sing of your love for ever. Everyone yet to be born will hear me praise your faithfulness.
It is wonderful each morning to tell about your love and at night to announce how faithful you are.
When the people of Zion and of the towns of Judah hear that God brings justice, they will celebrate.
The LORD God has told us what is right and what he demands: “See that justice is done, let mercy be your first concern, and humbly obey your God.”
Now you see both how kind and how hard God can be. He was hard on those who fell, but he was kind to you. And he will keep on being kind to you, if you keep on trusting in his kindness. Otherwise, you will be cut away too.
