Context: God remembers His covenant, possibly as the Jews exiled in Babylon [Confusion] see covenant faithfulness fulfilled by God’s regathering and the rebuilding of the Temple. (Ezra 3:10-13)
Acrostic Psalm
1 Halleluyah ·praise Yah·!
I will yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to Adonai with my whole heart,
in the council of the upright, and in the congregation.
2 Adonai ’s works are great,
pondered by all those who delight in them.
3 His work is honor and majesty.
His righteousness endures forever.
4 He has caused his wonderful works to be remembered.
Adonai is gracious and merciful. * Quoted in James 5:11

He always remembers his covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties·.
6 He has shown his people the power of his works,
in giving them the heritage of the nations.
7 The works of his hands are truth and mishpat ·justice·.
All his precepts are sure.
8 They are established forever and ever.
They are done in truth and uprightness.
9 He has sent redemption to his people.
He has enjoined his covenant forever.
His name is holy † Quoted in Luke 1:49 and awesome!

All those who do his work have a good understanding.
His tehilah ·praise song· endures forever!
