I asked, “Will the Lord reject me forever? Will he never again show me his favor?

He drove his enemies back; he made them a permanent target for insults.

He made his sanctuary as enduring as the heavens above; as secure as the earth, which he established permanently.

(May those who hate the Lord cower in fear before him! May they be permanently humiliated!)

Will you stay mad at us forever? Will you remain angry throughout future generations?

O Lord, my God, I will give you thanks with my whole heart! I will honor your name continually!

His dynasty will last forever. His throne will endure before me, like the sun,

it will remain stable, like the moon, his throne will endure like the skies.” (Selah)

But you, O Lord, rule forever, and your reputation endures.

He established the earth on its foundations; it will never be upended.

May the splendor of the Lord endure! May the Lord find pleasure in the living things he has made!

He always remembers his covenantal decree, the promise he made to a thousand generations –

Praise the Lord! Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, and his loyal love endures!

This brought him a reward, an eternal gift.

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, and his loyal love endures!

May the Lord’s name be praised now and forevermore!

But we will praise the Lord now and forevermore. Praise the Lord!

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good and his loyal love endures!

Let the family of Aaron say, “Yes, his loyal love endures!”

Let the loyal followers of the Lord say, “Yes, his loyal love endures!”
