The righteous will be glad in the Lord, and take refuge in Him. And all the upright in heart will exult.
“The righteous see it and are glad, and the innocent laugh them to scorn:
In the Lord I seek refuge; how do you say to my soul, “Flee as a bird to your mountain,
His descendants will be mighty on the earth; the generation of the upright will be blessed.
Guard my soul, and deliver me; do not let me suffer shame, for I take refuge in You.
Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, you righteous ones; and shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart!
He has put a new song in my mouth, praise to our God; many will see it and fear, and will trust in the Lord.
The righteous will rejoice when he sees the vengeance; he will wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
Light is sown for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart.
God forbid that I should boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.
Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!
