Let the righteous rejoice in the Lord and take refuge in him. Let all the upright in heart glory.
The righteous see it and are glad; the innocent laugh them to scorn,
In the Lord I take refuge; how can you say to me, “Flee like a bird to the mountains,
Their descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.
O guard my life and deliver me; do not let me be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.
Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, O righteous, and shout for joy, all you upright in heart.
He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the Lord.
The righteous will rejoice when they see vengeance done; they will bathe their feet in the blood of the wicked.
Light dawns for the righteous and joy for the upright in heart.
May I never boast of anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me and I to the world.
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice.
