² Make songs to the Lord, blessing his name; give the good news of his salvation day by day.

¹⁵ My mouth will make clear your righteousness and your salvation all the day; for they are more than may be measured.

¹⁵ And he said to them, Go into all the world, and give the good news to everyone.

¹³ And to my ears came the voice of everything in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and of all things which are in them, saying, To him who is seated on the high seat, and to the Lamb, may blessing and honour and glory and power be given for ever and ever.

³ Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has given us every blessing of the Spirit in the heavens in Christ:

¹⁴ But how will they give worship to him in whom they have no faith? and how will they have faith in him of whom they have not had news? and how will they have news without a preacher?

¹⁵ And how will there be preachers if they are not sent? As it is said, How beautiful are the feet of those who give the glad news of good things.

¹⁶ But they have not all given ear to the good news. For Isaiah says, Lord, who has had faith in our word?

¹⁷ So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.

¹⁸ But I say, Did not the word come to their ears? Yes, certainly: Their sound has gone out into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.

²⁶ My brothers, children of the family of Abraham, and those among you who have the fear of God, to us the word of this salvation is sent.

⁷ How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who comes with good news, who gives word of peace, saying that salvation is near; who says to Zion, Your God is ruling!

⁸ The voice of your watchmen! their voices are loud in song together; for they will see him, eye to eye, when the Lord comes back to Zion.

⁹ You who give good news to Zion, get up into the high mountain; you who give good news to Jerusalem, let your voice be strong; let it be sounding without fear; say to the towns of Judah, See, your God!

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

¹ <A Song of praise. Of David.> Let me give glory to you, O God, my King; and blessing to your name for ever and ever.

²⁰ Give praise to the Lord, you his angels, who are great in strength, doing his orders, and waiting for his voice.

²¹ Give praise to the Lord, all you his armies; and you his servants who do his pleasure.

²² Give praise to the Lord, all his works, in all places under his rule: give praise to the Lord, O my soul.

¹ Give praise to the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, you are very great; you are robed with honour and power.

¹ <Of David.> Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let everything in me give praise to his holy name.

² Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let not all his blessings go from your memory.

¹⁷ May his name go on for ever, as long as the sun: may men be blessing themselves by him; may all nations be blessing his name.

¹⁸ Praise be to the Lord God, the God of Israel, the only doer of wonders.

¹⁰ Your righteousness has not been folded away in my heart; I have made clear your true word and your salvation; I have not kept secret your mercy or your faith from the great meeting.

²⁰ And David said to all the people, Now give praise to the Lord your God. And all the people gave praise to the Lord, the God of their fathers, with bent heads worshipping the Lord and the king.
