1  ⁱPraise the Lord!

^jOh give thanks to the Lord, ^kfor he is good,

^lfor his steadfast love endures forever!

2  Who can utter the mighty deeds of the Lord,

or declare all his praise?

3  Blessed are they who observe justice,

who ^mdo righteousness at all times!

4  ⁿRemember 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 your ^ochosen ones,

that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation,

that I may glory with your inheritance.

6  ^pBoth we and ^qour fathers have sinned;

we have committed iniquity; we have done wickedness.

7  Our fathers, when they were in Egypt,

did not consider your wondrous works;

they ^rdid not remember the abundance of your steadfast love,

but ^srebelled by the sea, at the Red Sea.

8  Yet he saved them ^tfor his name’s sake,

^uthat he might make known his mighty power.

9  He ^vrebuked the Red Sea, and it ^wbecame dry,

and he ^xled them through the deep as through a desert.

10  So he ^ysaved them from the hand of the foe

and ^zredeemed them from the power of the enemy.

11  And ^athe waters covered their adversaries;

not one of them was left.

12  Then ^bthey believed his words;

they ^csang his praise.
