1
Praise the LORD.Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.
2
Who can proclaim the mighty acts of the LORDor fully declare his praise?
3
Blessed are those who act justly, who always do what is right.
4
Remember me, LORD, when you show favor to your people, come to my aid when you save them,
5
that I may enjoy the prosperity of your chosen ones, that I may share in the joy of your nation and join your inheritance in giving praise.
6
We have sinned, even as our ancestors did; we have done wrong and acted wickedly.
7
When our ancestors were in Egypt, they gave no thought to your miracles; they did not remember your many kindnesses, and they rebelled by the sea, the Red Sea.
8
Yet he saved them for his name’s sake, to make his mighty power known.
9
He rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up; he led them through the depths as through a desert.
10
He saved them from the hand of the foe; from the hand of the enemy he redeemed them.
11
The waters covered their adversaries; not one of them survived.
12
Then they believed his promises and sang his praise.
