² Let us come before his face with praises; and make melody with holy songs.

⁴ Come into his doors with joy, and into his house with praise; give him honour, blessing his name.

¹³ Is anyone among you in trouble? let him say prayers. Is anyone glad? let him make a song of praise.

¹⁹ Joining with one another in holy songs of praise and of the Spirit, using your voice in songs and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

⁶ With what am I to come before the Lord and go with bent head before the high God? am I to come before him with burned offerings, with young oxen a year old?

² Let your voice be sounding in songs and melody; let all your thoughts be of the wonder of his works.

² Give worship to the Lord with joy; come before him with a song.

¹³ Up! Lord, come out against him, make him low, with your sword be my saviour from the evil-doer.

¹² So they will come with songs on the high places, flowing together to the good things of the Lord, to the grain and the wine and the oil, to the young ones of the flock and of the herd: their souls will be like a watered garden, and they will have no more sorrow.

¹³ Then the virgin will have joy in the dance, and the young men and the old will be glad: for I will have their weeping turned into joy, I will give them comfort and make them glad after their sorrow.

² Take up the melody, playing on an instrument of music, even on corded instruments.

⁷ The meeting of the nations will be round you; take your seat, then, over them, on high.
