1  ^hSing aloud to God our strength;

ⁱshout for joy to the God of Jacob!

2  Raise a song; sound ^jthe tambourine,

^kthe sweet lyre with ^kthe harp.

3  Blow the trumpet at ^lthe new moon,

at the full moon, on our feast day.

4  For it is a statute for Israel,

a rule² of the God of Jacob.

5  He made it ^ma decree in ⁿJoseph

when he ^owent out over³ the land of Egypt.

^pI hear a language ^qI had not known:

6  “I ^rrelieved your⁴ shoulder of ^sthe burden;

your hands were freed from the basket.

7  In distress you ^tcalled, and I delivered you;

I ^uanswered you in the secret place of thunder;

I ^vtested you at the waters of Meribah. Selah
