Give Thanks to the Lord, for He Is Good
1 Praise the Lord!
Oh mgive thanks to the Lord, for he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever!
2 Who can utter the mighty deeds of the Lord,
or declare all his praise?
3 nBlessed are they who observe justice,
who do righteousness at all times!
4 Remember me, O Lord, when you show favor to your people;
help me when you save them,1
5 that I may look upon the prosperity of oyour chosen ones,
that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation,
that I may glory with your inheritance.
6 Both pwe and our fathers have sinned;
we have committed iniquity; we have done wickedness.
19 bThey cmade a calf in Horeb
and worshiped a dmetal image.
20 They eexchanged the glory of God1
for the fimage of an ox that eats grass.
21 They gforgot God, their Savior,
who had done great things in Egypt,
22 wondrous works in the land of Ham,
and awesome deeds by the Red Sea.
23 hTherefore he said he would destroy them—
had not Moses, his chosen one,
istood in the breach before him,
to turn away his wrath from destroying them.
