I will declare that your love stands firm forever, that you have established your faithfulness in heaven itself.

The heavens praise your wonders, LORD, your faithfulness too, in the assembly of the holy ones.

For I said, “Steadfast love will be built up forever; in the heavens you will establish your faithfulness.”

Let the heavens praise your wonders, O LORD, your faithfulness in the assembly of the holy ones!

Your unfailing love will last forever. Your faithfulness is as enduring as the heavens.

All heaven will praise your great wonders, LORD; myriads of angels will praise you for your faithfulness.

For I will declare, “Faithful love is built up forever; you establish your faithfulness in the heavens.”

LORD, the heavens praise your wonders   — your faithfulness also — in the assembly of the holy ones.

For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: Thy faithfulness shalt thou establish in the very heavens.

And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD: Thy faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints.

For I have said, “Mercy shall be built up forever; Your faithfulness You shall establish in the very heavens.”

And the heavens will praise Your wonders, O LORD; Your faithfulness also in the assembly of the saints.

Your love, GOD, is my song, and I’ll sing it! I’m forever telling everyone how faithful you are. I’ll never quit telling the story of your love— how you built the cosmos and guaranteed everything in it. Your love has always been our lives’ foundation, your fidelity has been the roof over our world. You once said, “I joined forces with my chosen leader, I pledged my word to my servant, David, saying, ‘Everyone descending from you is guaranteed life; I’ll make your rule as solid and lasting as rock.’”

GOD! Let the cosmos praise your wonderful ways, the choir of holy angels sing anthems to your faithful ways! Search high and low, scan skies and land, you’ll find nothing and no one quite like GOD. The holy angels are in awe before him; he looms immense and august over everyone around him. GOD-of-the-Angel-Armies, who is like you, powerful and faithful from every angle? You put the arrogant ocean in its place and calm its waves when they turn unruly. You gave that old hag Egypt the back of your hand, you brushed off your enemies with a flick of your wrist. You own the cosmos—you made everything in it, everything from atom to archangel. You positioned the North and South Poles; the mountains Tabor and Hermon sing duets to you. With your well-muscled arm and your grip of steel— nobody messes with you! The Right and Justice are the roots of your rule; Love and Truth are its fruits. Blessed are the people who know the passwords of praise, who shout on parade in the bright presence of GOD. Delighted, they dance all day long; they know who you are, what you do—they can’t keep it quiet! Your vibrant beauty has gotten inside us— you’ve been so good to us! We’re walking on air! All we are and have we owe to GOD, Holy God of Israel, our King!

For I have said, “Graciousness will be built up forever; In the heavens You will establish Your faithfulness.”

¶The heavens will praise Your wonders, LORD; Your faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.

For I have said, “Goodness and lovingkindness will be built up forever; In the heavens [unchangeable and majestic] You will establish Your faithfulness.”

¶The heavens (angels) praise Your wonders, O LORD, Your faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.

For I say, “Loyal love is permanently established; in the skies you set up your faithfulness.”

O LORD, the heavens praise your amazing deeds, as well as your faithfulness in the angelic assembly.
