The longest chapter of the Bible. I've decided to break it into parts.
This psalm is an acrostic poem; the verses of each stanza begin with the same letter of the Hebrew alphabet.

The label says "Book V." The whole category contains Psalms 107-150.
This is a fairly united psalm. The psalmist talks about God's work (redemption) and the praise that follows because of it.
