rejoice in thy name:

right hand exalted:
88:15. Justice and judgment are the preparation of thy throne. Mercy and
truth shall go before thy face:
88:16. Blessed is the people that knoweth jubilation. They shall walk, O
Lord, in the light of thy countenance:
88:17. And in thy name they shall rejoice all the day, and in thy
justice they shall be exalted.

pleasure shall our horn be exalted.

of Israel.

laid help upon one that is mighty, and have exalted one chosen out of my
people.

him.
88:22. For my hand shall help him: and my arm shall strengthen him.

iniquity have power to hurt him.
88:24. And I will cut down his enemies before his face; and them that
hate him I will put to flight.

his horn be exalted.

rivers.
