He put a new song[a] in my mouth,
    a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will look on and be awestruck,
    and they will place their trust in the Lord.
Blessed[b] is the man
    who places his trust in the Lord,
who does not follow the arrogant
    or those who go astray after falsehoods.
How innumerable, O Lord, my God,
    are the wonders you have worked;
no one can compare with you
    in the plans you have made for us.
I would proclaim them and recount them,
    but there are far too many to enumerate.
