1 Sing, ye righteous, in Jehovah, For upright ones praise `is' comely.
Be glad in Jehovah, and rejoice, ye righteous, And sing, all ye upright of heart!
Praise ye Jah! For `it is' good to praise our God, For pleasant -- comely `is' praise.
Sacrifice to God confession, And complete to the Most High thy vows. And call Me in a day of adversity, I deliver thee, and thou honourest Me. And to the wicked hath God said: What to thee -- to recount My statutes? That thou liftest up My covenant on thy mouth?
And -- they deceive Him with their mouth, And with their tongue do lie to Him, And their heart hath not been right with Him, And they have not been stedfast in His covenant.
A voice of singing and salvation, `Is' in the tents of the righteous, The right hand of Jehovah is doing valiantly.
Praise ye Jah! for Jehovah `is' good, Sing praise to His name, for `it is' pleasant.
according as it hath been written -- `There is none righteous, not even one;
for as through the disobedience of the one man, the many were constituted sinners: so also through the obedience of the one, shall the many be constituted righteous.
