² Let Israel now say, that his mercy is unchanging for ever.

⁹ O Israel, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.

¹⁰ O house of Aaron, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.

¹¹ You worshippers of the Lord, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.

¹⁹ Give praise to the Lord, O children of Israel: give praise to the Lord, O sons of Aaron:

²⁰ Give praise to the Lord, O sons of Levi: let all the worshippers of the Lord give him praise.

¹⁰ All the works of your hands give praise to you, O Lord; and your saints give you blessing.

¹⁹ He makes his word clear to Jacob, teaching Israel his laws and his decisions.

²⁰ He has not done these things for any other nation: and as for his laws, they have no knowledge of them. Let the Lord be praised.

¹⁶ And on all who are guided by this rule be peace and mercy, and on the Israel of God.

¹⁵ Let us then make offerings of praise to God at all times through him, that is to say, the fruit of lips giving witness to his name.

⁹ But you are a special people, a holy nation, priests and kings, a people given up completely to God, so that you may make clear the virtues of him who took you out of the dark into the light of heaven.

¹⁰ In the past you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; then there was no mercy for you, but now mercy has been given to you.
