1Praise ye Jehovah. I will give thanks unto Jehovah with my whole heart, In the council of the upright, and in the congregation.

1Praise ye Jah! I thank Jehovah with the whole heart, In the secret meeting of the upright, And of the company.

1Let the Lord be praised. I will give praise to the Lord with all my heart, among the upright, and in the meeting of the people.

1Hallelujah! I will celebrate Jehovah with [my] whole heart, in the council of the upright, and in the assembly.

2The works of Jehovah are great, Sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.
