1. The Lord is great (1-14)

The Lord does whatever pleases him in heaven and on earth. It pleased him to deliver his people from slavery to Egypt. It pleased him to give them his many great promises. In his great compassion, it also pleased him to vindicate me. He delivered me from bondage to sin; he chose me to be his treasured possession; he called me to minister to his name. Praise the name of the Lord.

2. The idols of the nations (15-21)

It is foolish to worship idols fashioned by human hands. They can neither see nor hear nor speak. They cannot help those who trust in them. Those who put their trust in money become senseless, and as callous as money. Those who worship material things become slaves to them. But those who fear the Lord taste his goodness and find pleasure in praising his name.
