You godly ones, rejoice in the Lord! Give thanks to his holy name.
Sing to the Lord, you faithful followers of his; give thanks to his holy name.
For his anger lasts only a brief moment, and his good favor restores one’s life. One may experience sorrow during the night, but joy arrives in the morning.
Rejoice in the Lord and be happy, you who are godly! Shout for joy, all you who are morally upright!
God has spoken in his sanctuary: “I will triumph! I will parcel out Shechem; the Valley of Succoth I will measure off.
Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I say, rejoice!
For they disciplined us for a little while as seemed good to them, but he does so for our benefit, that we may share his holiness.
