Psalm 22:23ff
| All ye that fear Jehovah's Name, His glory tell, his praise proclaim; Ye children of his chosen race, Stand ye in awe before his face. The suffering one he has not spurned, Who unto him for succor turned; From him he has not hid his face, But answered his request in grace. O Lord, thy goodness makes me raise Amid thy people songs of praise; Before all them that fear thee, now I worship thee and pay my vow. The Lord's unfailing righteousness All generations shall confess, From age to age shall men be taught What wondrous works the Lord has wrought. | 23 You who fear the LORD, praise him! All you descendants of Jacob, honor him! Revere him, all you descendants of Israel! 24 For he has not despised or disdained the suffering of the afflicted one; he has not hidden his face from him but has listened to his cry for help. 25 From you comes the theme of my praise in the great assembly; before those who fear you [e] will I fulfill my vows. 26 The poor will eat and be satisfied; they who seek the LORD will praise him— may your hearts live forever! 27 All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the LORD, and all the families of the nations will bow down before him, 28 for dominion belongs to the LORD and he rules over the nations. 29 All the rich of the earth will feast and worship; all who go down to the dust will kneel before him— those who cannot keep themselves alive. 30 Posterity will serve him; future generations will be told about the Lord. 31 They will proclaim his righteousness to a people yet unborn— for he has done it. (NIV) |
