1:1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor
    standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
1:2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he
    meditate day and night.
1:3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that
    bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither;
    and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
1:4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind
    driveth away.
1:5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in
    the congregation of the righteous.
1:6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the
    ungodly shall perish.
2:1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2:2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel
    together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
2:3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
2:4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in
    derision.
2:5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore
    displeasure.
2:6 Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
2:7 I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son;
    this day have I begotten thee.
2:8 Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance,
    and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
2:9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces
    like a potter's vessel.
2:10 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
2:11 Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
2:12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his
    wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their
    trust in him.
3:1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. LORD, how are they
    increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
3:2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God.
    Selah.
3:3 But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of
    mine head.
3:4 I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill.
    Selah.
3:5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.
3:6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set
    themselves against me round about.
3:7 Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies
    upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
3:8 Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people.
    Selah.
4:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm of David. Hear me when I call,
    O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress;
    have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
4:2 O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long
    will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.
4:3 But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the
    LORD will hear when I call unto him.
4:4 Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed,
    and be still. Selah.
4:5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
4:6 There be many that say, Who will show us any good? LORD, lift thou
    up the light of thy countenance upon us.
4:7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their
    corn and their wine increased.
4:8 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest
    me dwell in safety.
5:1 To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David. Give ear to my
    words, O LORD, consider my meditation.
5:2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee
    will I pray.
5:3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I
    direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.
5:4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall
    evil dwell with thee.
5:5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of
    iniquity.
5:6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the
    bloody and deceitful man.
5:7 But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy:
    and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.
5:8 Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy
    way straight before my face.
5:9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is
    very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with
    their tongue.
5:10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast
    them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have
    rebelled against thee.
5:11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever
    shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy
    name be joyful in thee.
5:12 For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass
    him as with a shield.
6:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David. O
    LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot
    displeasure.
6:2 Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my
    bones are vexed.
6:3 My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long?
6:4 Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake.
6:5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall
    give thee thanks?
6:6 I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I
    water my couch with my tears.
6:7 Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine
    enemies.
6:8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the
    voice of my weeping.
6:9 The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.
6:10 Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and
    be ashamed suddenly.
7:1 Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning the words of
    Cush the Benjamite. O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me
    from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:
7:2 Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is
    none to deliver.
7:3 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands;
7:4 If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea, I have
    delivered him that without cause is mine enemy:)
7:5 Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down
    my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah.
7:6 Arise, O LORD, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of
    mine enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that thou hast
    commanded.
7:7 So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their
    sakes therefore return thou on high.
7:8 The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my
    righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.
7:9 Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the
    just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
7:10 My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.
7:11 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
7:12 If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made
    it ready.
7:13 He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth
    his arrows against the persecutors.
7:14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and
    brought forth falsehood.
7:15 He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he
    made.
7:16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing
    shall come down upon his own pate.
7:17 I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing
    praise to the name of the LORD most high.
8:1 To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David. O LORD our Lord,
    how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory
    above the heavens.
8:2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength
    because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the
    avenger.
8:3 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the
    stars, which thou hast ordained;
8:4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou
    visitest him?
8:5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned
    him with glory and honour.
8:6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast
    put all things under his feet:
8:7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;
8:8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth
    through the paths of the seas.
8:9 O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!
9:1 To the chief Musician upon Muthlabben, A Psalm of David. I will praise
    thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will show forth all thy marvellous
    works.
9:2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O
    thou most High.
9:3 When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy
    presence.
9:4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou satest in the
    throne judging right.
9:5 Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast
    put out their name for ever and ever.
9:6 O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast
    destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.
9:7 But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for
    judgment.
9:8 And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister
    judgment to the people in uprightness.
9:9 The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of
    trouble.
9:10 And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD,
    hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
9:11 Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the
    people his doings.
9:12 When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he
    forgetteth not the cry of the humble.
9:13 Have mercy upon me, O LORD; consider my trouble which I suffer of
    them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death:
9:14 That I may show forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of
    Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.
9:15 The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which
    they hid is their own foot taken.
9:16 The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is
    snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.
9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget
    God.
9:18 For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor
    shall not perish for ever.
9:19 Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy
    sight.
9:20 Put them in fear, O LORD: that the nations may know themselves to be
    but men. Selah.
10:1 Why standest thou afar off, O LORD? why hidest thou thyself in
    times of trouble?
10:2 The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in
    the devices that they have imagined.
10:3 For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous,
    whom the LORD abhorreth.
10:4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after
    God: God is not in all his thoughts.
10:5 His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his
    sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.
10:6 He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be
    in adversity.
10:7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is
    mischief and vanity.
10:8 He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places
    doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor.
10:9 He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to
    catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net.
10:10 He croucheth, and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his
    strong ones.
10:11 He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he
    will never see it.
10:12 Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble.
10:13 Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou
    wilt not require it.
10:14 Thou hast seen it: for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite
    it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the
    helper of the fatherless.
10:15 Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his
    wickedness till thou find none.
10:16 The LORD is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of
    his land.
10:17 LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare
    their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:
10:18 To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth
    may no more oppress.
11:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. In the LORD put I my trust:
    how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?
11:2 For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon
    the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.
11:3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
11:4 The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD'S throne is in heaven: his
    eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.
11:5 The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth
    violence his soul hateth.
11:6 Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an
    horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.
11:7 For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth
    behold the upright.
12:1 To the chief Musician upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David. Help, LORD; for
    the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of
    men.
12:2 They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips
    and with a double heart do they speak.
12:3 The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that
    speaketh proud things:
12:4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own:
    who is lord over us?
12:5 For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I
    arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from him that
    puffeth at him.
12:6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace
    of earth, purified seven times.
12:7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this
    generation for ever.
12:8 The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.
13:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. How long wilt thou forget me, O
    LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?
13:2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart
    daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?
13:3 Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep
    the sleep of death;
13:4 Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that
    trouble me rejoice when I am moved.
13:5 But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.
13:6 I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
14:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The fool hath said in his
    heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable
    works, there is none that doeth good.
14:2 The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if
    there were any that did understand, and seek God.
14:3 They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is
     none that doeth good, no, not one.
14:4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as
    they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.
14:5 There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the
    righteous.
14:6 Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.
14:7 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when the LORD
    bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and
    Israel shall be glad.
15:1 A Psalm of David. LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall
    dwell in thy holy hill?
15:2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the
    truth in his heart.
15:3 He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his
    neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.
15:4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that
    fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.
15:5 He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against
    the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
16:1 Michtam of David. Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.
16:2 O my soul, thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou art my Lord: my
    goodness extendeth not to thee;
16:3 But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in
    whom is all my delight.
16:4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god:
    their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names
    into my lips.
16:5 The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou
    maintainest my lot.
16:6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly
    heritage.
16:7 I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also
    instruct me in the night seasons.
16:8 I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I
    shall not be moved.
16:9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall
    rest in hope.
16:10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer
    thine Holy One to see corruption.
16:11 Thou wilt show me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy;
    at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
17:1 A prayer of David. Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear
    unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips.
17:2 Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the
    things that are equal.
17:3 Thou hast proved mine heart; thou hast visited me in the night; thou
    hast tried me, and shalt find nothing; I am purposed that my mouth
    shall not transgress.
17:4 Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept me
    from the paths of the destroyer.
17:5 Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not.
17:6 I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine
    ear unto me, and hear my speech.
17:7 Show thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right
    hand them which put their trust in thee from those that rise up
    against them.
17:8 Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,
17:9 From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who
    compass me about.
17:10 They are enclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.
17:11 They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes
    bowing down to the earth;
17:12 Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young
    lion lurking in secret places.
17:13 Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the
    wicked, which is thy sword:
17:14 From men which are thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world, which
    have their portion in this life, and whose belly thou fillest with
    thy hid treasure: they are full of children, and leave the rest of
    their substance to their babes.
17:15 As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be
    satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.
18:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, the servant of the LORD, who
    spake unto the LORD the words of this song in the day that the LORD
    delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul:
    And he said, I will love thee, O LORD, my strength.
18:2 The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my
    strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation,
    and my high tower.
18:3 I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be
    saved from mine enemies.
18:4 The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made
    me afraid.
18:5 The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death prevented me.
18:6 In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard
    my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his
    ears.
18:7 Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills
    moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.
18:8 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth
    devoured: coals were kindled by it.
18:9 He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness was under his
    feet.
18:10 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings
    of the wind.
18:11 He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were
    dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.
18:12 At the brightness that was before him his thick clouds passed, hail
    stones and coals of fire.
18:13 The LORD also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice;
    hail stones and coals of fire.
18:14 Yea, he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot out
    lightnings, and discomfited them.
18:15 Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the
    world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath
    of thy nostrils.
18:16 He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.
18:17 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me:
    for they were too strong for me.
18:18 They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was my stay.
18:19 He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me, because
    he delighted in me.
18:20 The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the
    cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
18:21 For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed
    from my God.
18:22 For all his judgments were before me, and I did not put away his
    statutes from me.
18:23 I was also upright before him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity.
18:24 Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousness,
    according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.
18:25 With the merciful thou wilt show thyself merciful; with an upright man
    thou wilt show thyself upright;
18:26 With the pure thou wilt show thyself pure; and with the froward thou
    wilt show thyself froward.
18:27 For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high looks.
18:28 For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my
    darkness.
18:29 For by thee I have run through a troop; and by my God have I leaped
    over a wall.
18:30 As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he is
     a buckler to all those that trust in him.
18:31 For who is God save the LORD? or who is a rock save our God?
18:32 It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.
18:33 He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and setteth me upon my high
    places.
18:34 He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine
    arms.
18:35 Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right
    hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great.
18:36 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip.
18:37 I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them: neither did I turn
    again till they were consumed.
18:38 I have wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen
    under my feet.
18:39 For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast
    subdued under me those that rose up against me.
18:40 Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might
    destroy them that hate me.
18:41 They cried, but there was none to save them: even unto the LORD,
    but he answered them not.
18:42 Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did cast
    them out as the dirt in the streets.
18:43 Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; and thou
    hast made me the head of the heathen: a people whom I have not known
    shall serve me.
18:44 As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall
    submit themselves unto me.
18:45 The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places.
18:46 The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my
    salvation be exalted.
18:47 It is God that avengeth me, and subdueth the people under me.
18:48 He delivereth me from mine enemies: yea, thou liftest me up above
    those that rise up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent
    man.
18:49 Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and
    sing praises unto thy name.
18:50 Great deliverance giveth he to his king; and showeth mercy to his
    anointed, to David, and to his seed for evermore.
19:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory
    of God; and the firmament showeth his handiwork.
19:2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge.
19:3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
19:4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the
    end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
19:5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth
    as a strong man to run a race.
19:6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto
    the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
19:7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of
    the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
19:8 The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the
    commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
19:9 The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of
    the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
19:10 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold:
    sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
19:11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them
    there is great reward.
19:12 Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.
19:13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have
    dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from
    the great transgression.
19:14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be
    acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
20:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The LORD hear thee in the day
    of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;
20:2 Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;
20:3 Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; Selah.
20:4 Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
20:5 We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will
    set up our banners: the LORD fulfil all thy petitions.
20:6 Now know I that the LORD saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his
    holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
20:7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the
    name of the LORD our God.
20:8 They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.
20:9 Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.
21:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The king shall joy in thy
    strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
21:2 Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the
    request of his lips. Selah.
21:3 For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a
    crown of pure gold on his head.
21:4 He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of
    days for ever and ever.
21:5 His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou
    laid upon him.
21:6 For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him
    exceeding glad with thy countenance.
21:7 For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most
    High he shall not be moved.
21:8 Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find
    out those that hate thee.
21:9 Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the
    LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.
21:10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from
    among the children of men.
21:11 For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device,
    which they are not able to perform.
21:12 Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make
    ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them.
21:13 Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and
    praise thy power.
22:1 To the chief Musician upon Aijeleth Shahar, A Psalm of David. My God,
    my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me,
    and from the words of my roaring?
22:2 O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night
    season, and am not silent.
22:3 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
22:4 Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
22:5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and
    were not confounded.
22:6 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the
    people.
22:7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they
    shake the head, saying,
22:8 He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him,
    seeing he delighted in him.
22:9 But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope
    when I was upon my mother's breasts.
22:10 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's
    belly.
22:11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.
22:12 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me
    round.
22:13 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring
    lion.
22:14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my
    heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
22:15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my
    jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.
22:16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have enclosed me:
    they pierced my hands and my feet.
22:17 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.
22:18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
22:19 But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me
    .
22:20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.
22:21 Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns
    of the unicorns.
22:22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the
    congregation will I praise thee.
22:23 Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify
    him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.
22:24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted;
    neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he
    heard.
22:25 My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my
    vows before them that fear him.
22:26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that
    seek him: your heart shall live for ever.
22:27 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and
    all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.
22:28 For the kingdom is the LORD'S: and he is the governor among the
    nations.
22:29 All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that
    go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his
    own soul.
22:30 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a
    generation.
22:31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people
    that shall be born, that he hath done this.
23:1 A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
23:2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the
    still waters.
23:3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for
    his name's sake.
23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will
    fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me
    .
23:5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou
    anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
23:6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I
    will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
24:1 A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof;
    the world, and they that dwell therein.
24:2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
24:3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his
    holy place?
24:4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his
    soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
24:5 He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the
    God of his salvation.
24:6 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O
    Jacob. Selah.
24:7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors;
    and the King of glory shall come in.
24:8 Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD
    mighty in battle.
24:9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting
    doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
24:10 Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory.
    Selah.
25:1 A Psalm of David. Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.
25:2 O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies
    triumph over me.
25:3 Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which
    transgress without cause.
25:4 Show me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.
25:5 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my
    salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.
25:6 Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they
    have been ever of old.
25:7 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to
    thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O LORD.
25:8 Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the
    way.
25:9 The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.
25:10 All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his
    covenant and his testimonies.
25:11 For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.
25:12 What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way
    that he shall choose.
25:13 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.
25:14 The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will show
    them his covenant.
25:15 Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out
    of the net.
25:16 Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and
    afflicted.
25:17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my
    distresses.
25:18 Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.
25:19 Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel
    hatred.
25:20 O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my
    trust in thee.
25:21 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.
25:22 Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
26:1 A Psalm of David. Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine
    integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.
26:2 Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.
26:3 For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy
    truth.
26:4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.
26:5 I have hated the congregation of evildoers; and will not sit with the
    wicked.
26:6 I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O
    LORD:
26:7 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy
    wondrous works.
26:8 LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where
    thine honour dwelleth.
26:9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:
26:10 In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.
26:11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be
    merciful unto me.
26:12 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless
    the LORD.
27:1 A Psalm of David. The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I
    fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
27:2 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat
    up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
27:3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear:
    though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.
27:4 One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I
    may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold
    the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in his temple.
27:5 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the
    secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.
27:6 And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me:
    therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing,
    yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.
27:7 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and
    answer me.
27:8 When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face,
    LORD, will I seek.
27:9 Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger:
    thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my
    salvation.
27:10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.
27:11 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine
    enemies.
27:12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses
    are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.
27:13 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD
    in the land of the living.
27:14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine
    heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
28:1 A Psalm of David. Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent
    to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down
    into the pit.
28:2 Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift
    up my hands toward thy holy oracle.
28:3 Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity,
    which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.
28:4 Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of
    their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to
    them their desert.
28:5 Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his
    hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.
28:6 Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my
    supplications.
28:7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I
    am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I
    praise him.
28:8 The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his
    anointed.
28:9 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift
    them up for ever.
29:1 A Psalm of David. Give unto the LORD, O ye mighty, give unto the LORD
    glory and strength.
29:2 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the
    beauty of holiness.
29:3 The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth:
    the LORD is upon many waters.
29:4 The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of
    majesty.
29:5 The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars; yea, the LORD breaketh the
    cedars of Lebanon.
29:6 He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a
    young unicorn.
29:7 The voice of the LORD divideth the flames of fire.
29:8 The voice of the LORD shaketh the wilderness; the LORD shaketh the
    wilderness of Kadesh.
29:9 The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the
    forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory.
29:10 The LORD sitteth upon the flood; yea, the LORD sitteth King for ever.
29:11 The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his
    people with peace.
30:1 A Psalm and Song at the dedication of the house of David. I will
    extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my
    foes to rejoice over me.
30:2 O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.
30:3 O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me
    alive, that I should not go down to the pit.
30:4 Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the
    remembrance of his holiness.
30:5 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping
    may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
30:6 And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.
30:7 LORD, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou
    didst hide thy face, and I was troubled.
30:8 I cried to thee, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication.
30:9 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall
    the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?
30:10 Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper.
30:11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my
    sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;
30:12 To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O
    LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.
31:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. In thee, O LORD, do I put my
    trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.
31:2 Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock,
    for an house of defence to save me.
31:3 For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake
    lead me, and guide me.
31:4 Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art
    my strength.
31:5 Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God
    of truth.
31:6 I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD.
31:7 I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my
    trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities;
31:8 And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my
    feet in a large room.
31:9 Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed
    with grief, yea, my soul and my belly.
31:10 For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my
    strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.
31:11 I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my
    neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me
    without fled from me.
31:12 I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.
31:13 For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while
    they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.
31:14 But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God.
31:15 My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies,
    and from them that persecute me.
31:16 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies' sake.
31:17 Let me not be ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: let the
    wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave.
31:18 Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things
    proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.
31:19 Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them
    that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee
    before the sons of men!
31:20 Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of
    man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of
    tongues.
31:21 Blessed be the LORD: for he hath showed me his marvellous kindness
    in a strong city.
31:22 For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes:
    nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried
    unto thee.
31:23 O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the
    faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.
31:24 Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that
    hope in the LORD.
32:1 A Psalm of David, Maschil. Blessed is he whose transgression is
    forgiven, whose sin is covered.
32:2 Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in
    whose spirit there is no guile.
32:3 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day
    long.
32:4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned
    into the drought of summer. Selah.
32:5 I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I
    said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest
    the iniquity of my sin. Selah.
32:6 For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when
    thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall
    not come nigh unto him.
32:7 Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou
    shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.
32:8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I
    will guide thee with mine eye.
32:9 Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding:
    whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near
    unto thee.
32:10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD,
    mercy shall compass him about.
32:11 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all
    ye that are upright in heart.
33:1 Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the
    upright.
33:2 Praise the LORD with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an
    instrument of ten strings.
33:3 Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
33:4 For the word of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in
    truth.
33:5 He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness
    of the LORD.
33:6 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them
    by the breath of his mouth.
33:7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up
    the depth in storehouses.
33:8 Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world
    stand in awe of him.
33:9 For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
33:10 The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the
    devices of the people of none effect.
33:11 The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart
    to all generations.
33:12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom
    he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
33:13 The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.
33:14 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants
    of the earth.
33:15 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.
33:16 There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is
    not delivered by much strength.
33:17 An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any
    by his great strength.
33:18 Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them
    that hope in his mercy;
33:19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
33:20 Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he is our help and our shield.
33:21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his
    holy name.
33:22 Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
34:1 A Psalm of David, when he changed his behaviour before Abimelech; who
    drove him away, and he departed. I will bless the LORD at all times: his
    praise shall continually be in my mouth.
34:2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof
    , and be glad.
34:3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.
34:4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
34:5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not
    ashamed.
34:6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all
    his troubles.
34:7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and
    delivereth them.
34:8 O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that
    trusteth in him.
34:9 O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that
    fear him.
34:10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the
    LORD shall not want any good thing.
34:11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the
    LORD.
34:12 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he
    may see good?
34:13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
34:14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
34:15 The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open
    unto their cry.
34:16 The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the
    remembrance of them from the earth.
34:17 The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of
    all their troubles.
34:18 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth
    such as be of a contrite spirit.
34:19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth
    him out of them all.
34:20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.
34:21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be
    desolate.
34:22 The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that
    trust in him shall be desolate.
35:1 A Psalm of David. Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive
    with me: fight against them that fight against me.
35:2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help.
35:3 Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me
    : say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.
35:4 Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let
    them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt.
35:5 Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the LORD
    chase them.
35:6 Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD
    persecute them.
35:7 For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit, which
    without cause they have digged for my soul.
35:8 Let destruction come upon him at unawares; and let his net that he hath
    hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall.
35:9 And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his
    salvation.
35:10 All my bones shall say, LORD, who is like unto thee, which
    deliverest the poor from him that is too strong for him, yea, the poor
    and the needy from him that spoileth him?
35:11 False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my charge things that I
    knew not.
35:12 They rewarded me evil for good to the spoiling of my soul.
35:13 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth: I
    humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer returned into mine own bosom.
35:14 I behaved myself as though he had been my friend or brother: I
    bowed down heavily, as one that mourneth for his mother.
35:15 But in mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together:
    yea, the abjects gathered themselves together against me, and I knew it
    not; they did tear me, and ceased not:
35:16 With hypocritical mockers in feasts, they gnashed upon me with their
    teeth.
35:17 Lord, how long wilt thou look on? rescue my soul from their
    destructions, my darling from the lions.
35:18 I will give thee thanks in the great congregation: I will praise thee
    among much people.
35:19 Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: neither
    let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause.
35:20 For they speak not peace: but they devise deceitful matters against
    them that are quiet in the land.
35:21 Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me, and said, Aha, aha,
    our eye hath seen it.
35:22 This thou hast seen, O LORD: keep not silence: O LORD, be not far
    from me.
35:23 Stir up thyself, and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause, my
    God and my Lord.
35:24 Judge me, O LORD my God, according to thy righteousness; and let them
    not rejoice over me.
35:25 Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it: let them
    not say, We have swallowed him up.
35:26 Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that rejoice at
    mine hurt: let them be clothed with shame and dishonour that magnify
    themselves against me.
35:27 Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause:
    yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which hath
    pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.
35:28 And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness and of thy praise all
    the day long.
36:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD. The
    transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no
    fear of God before his eyes.
36:2 For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found
    to be hateful.
36:3 The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to
    be wise, and to do good.
36:4 He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is
    not good; he abhorreth not evil.
36:5 Thy mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth
    unto the clouds.
36:6 Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a
    great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast.
36:7 How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of
    men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.
36:8 They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and
    thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.
36:9 For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.
36:10 O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy
    righteousness to the upright in heart.
36:11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the
    wicked remove me.
36:12 There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and
    shall not be able to rise.
37:1 A Psalm of David. Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be
    thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
37:2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green
    herb.
37:3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and
    verily thou shalt be fed.
37:4 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of
    thine heart.
37:5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it
    to pass.
37:6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy
    judgment as the noonday.
37:7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because
    of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked
    devices to pass.
37:8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do
    evil.
37:9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they
    shall inherit the earth.
37:10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou
    shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.
37:11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in
    the abundance of peace.
37:12 The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his
    teeth.
37:13 The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.
37:14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast
    down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation.
37:15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be
    broken.
37:16 A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many
    wicked.
37:17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the
    righteous.
37:18 The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall
    be for ever.
37:19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine
    they shall be satisfied.
37:20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as
    the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
37:21 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous showeth
    mercy, and giveth.
37:22 For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they
    that be cursed of him shall be cut off.
37:23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth
    in his way.
37:24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD
    upholdeth him with his hand.
37:25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous
    forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
37:26 He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.
37:27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
37:28 For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are
    preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
37:29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
37:30 The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of
    judgment.
37:31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
37:32 The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
37:33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is
    judged.
37:34 Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit
    the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
37:35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a
    green bay tree.
37:36 Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he
    could not be found.
37:37 Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that
    man is peace.
37:38 But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the
    wicked shall be cut off.
37:39 But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their
    strength in the time of trouble.
37:40 And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them
    from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
38:1 A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance. O LORD, rebuke me not in thy
    wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
38:2 For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.
38:3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is
    there any rest in my bones because of my sin.
38:4 For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they
    are too heavy for me.
38:5 My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.
38:6 I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
38:7 For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no
    soundness in my flesh.
38:8 I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the
    disquietness of my heart.
38:9 Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from
    thee.
38:10 My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes,
    it also is gone from me.
38:11 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen
    stand afar off.
38:12 They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that
    seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day
    long.
38:13 But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that
    openeth not his mouth.
38:14 Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no
    reproofs.
38:15 For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
38:16 For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me:
    when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.
38:17 For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.
38:18 For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.
38:19 But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that
    hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
38:20 They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I
    follow the thing that good is.
38:21 Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.
38:22 Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
39:1 To the chief Musician, even to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David. I said, I
    will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my
    mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.
39:2 I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my
    sorrow was stirred.
39:3 My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then
    spake I with my tongue,
39:4 LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is;
    that I may know how frail I am.
39:5 Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is
    as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is
    altogether vanity. Selah.
39:6 Surely every man walketh in a vain show: surely they are disquieted in
    vain: he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.
39:7 And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.
39:8 Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the
    foolish.
39:9 I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it.
39:10 Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand.
39:11 When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his
    beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah.
39:12 Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace
    at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all
    my fathers were.
39:13 O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no
    more.
40:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. I waited patiently for the LORD;
    and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
40:2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and
    set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
40:3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God:
    many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
40:4 Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth
    not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
40:5 Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done,
    and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in
    order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more
    than can be numbered.
40:6 Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened:
    burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
40:7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
40:8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.
40:9 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not
    refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.
40:10 I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy
    faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness
    and thy truth from the great congregation.
40:11 Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy
    lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
40:12 For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have
    taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than
    the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.
40:13 Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me.
40:14 Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to
    destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me
    evil.
40:15 Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto me, Aha,
    aha.
40:16 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as
    love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.
40:17 But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art
    my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.
41:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Blessed is he that
    considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
41:2 The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be
    blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of
    his enemies.
41:3 The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt
    make all his bed in his sickness.
41:4 I said, LORD, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned
    against thee.
41:5 Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?
41:6 And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth
    iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it.
41:7 All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise
    my hurt.
41:8 An evil disease, say they, cleaveth fast unto him: and now that he
    lieth he shall rise up no more.
41:9 Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my
    bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.
41:10 But thou, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may
    requite them.
41:11 By this I know that thou favourest me, because mine enemy doth not
    triumph over me.
41:12 And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me
    before thy face for ever.
41:13 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to
    everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
42:1 To the chief Musician, Maschil, for the sons of Korah. As the hart
    panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.
42:2 My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and
    appear before God?
42:3 My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say
    unto me, Where is thy God?
42:4 When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had
    gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the
    voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.
42:5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me?
    hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his
    countenance.
42:6 O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember
    thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar.
42:7 Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves
    and thy billows are gone over me.
42:8 Yet the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in
    the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of
    my life.
42:9 I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I
    mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
42:10 As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they
    say daily unto me, Where is thy God?
42:11 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me
    ? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of
    my countenance, and my God.
43:1 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O
    deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
43:2 For thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why
    go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
43:3 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me
    unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
43:4 Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea,
    upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.
43:5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me?
    hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my
    countenance, and my God.
44:1 To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, Maschil. We have heard
    with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst
    in their days, in the times of old.
44:2 How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them;
    how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.
44:3 For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did
    their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the
    light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.
44:4 Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.
44:5 Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we
    tread them under that rise up against us.
44:6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
44:7 But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame
    that hated us.
44:8 In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.
44:9 But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with
    our armies.
44:10 Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us
    spoil for themselves.
44:11 Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered
    us among the heathen.
44:12 Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase thy wealth
    by their price.
44:13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to
    them that are round about us.
44:14 Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among
    the people.
44:15 My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath
    covered me,
44:16 For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of
    the enemy and avenger.
44:17 All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have
    we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
44:18 Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy
    way;
44:19 Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered
    us with the shadow of death.
44:20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands
    to a strange god;
44:21 Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
44:22 Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as
    sheep for the slaughter.
44:23 Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.
44:24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and
    our oppression?
44:25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the
    earth.
44:26 Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.
45:1 To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, for the sons of Korah, Maschil, A
    Song of loves. My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things
    which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready
    writer.
45:2 Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips:
    therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
45:3 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and
    thy majesty.
45:4 And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and
    righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.
45:5 Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; whereby
    the people fall under thee.
45:6 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is
     a right sceptre.
45:7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God,
    hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
45:8 All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the
    ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.
45:9 Kings' daughters were among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand
    did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
45:10 Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also
    thine own people, and thy father's house;
45:11 So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and
    worship thou him.
45:12 And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich
    among the people shall entreat thy favour.
45:13 The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of
    wrought gold.
45:14 She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the
    virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.
45:15 With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter
    into the king's palace.
45:16 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest make
    princes in all the earth.
45:17 I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore
    shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.
46:1 To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth. God is
     our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
46:2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the
    mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
46:3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the
    mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
46:4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God,
    the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
46:5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her,
    and that right early.
46:6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the
    earth melted.
46:7 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
46:8 Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in
    the earth.
46:9 He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow,
    and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
46:10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen,
    I will be exalted in the earth.
46:11 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
47:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. O clap your hands,
    all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
47:2 For the LORD most high is terrible; he is a great King over all the
    earth.
47:3 He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet.
47:4 He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he
    loved. Selah.
47:5 God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.
47:6 Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing
    praises.
47:7 For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with
    understanding.
47:8 God reigneth over the heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his
    holiness.
47:9 The princes of the people are gathered together, even the people of
    the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth belong unto God: he
    is greatly exalted.
48:1 A Song and Psalm for the sons of Korah. Great is the LORD, and
    greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his
    holiness.
48:2 Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on
     the sides of the north, the city of the great King.
48:3 God is known in her palaces for a refuge.
48:4 For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.
48:5 They saw it, and so they marvelled; they were troubled, and hasted
    away.
48:6 Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail.
48:7 Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.
48:8 As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in
    the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah.
48:9 We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple.
48:10 According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the
    earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.
48:11 Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of
    thy judgments.
48:12 Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof.
48:13 Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it
    to the generation following.
48:14 For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even
    unto death.
49:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. Hear this, all ye
    people; give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world:
49:2 Both low and high, rich and poor, together.
49:3 My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be
    of understanding.
49:4 I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my dark saying upon
    the harp.
49:5 Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my
    heels shall compass me about?
49:6 They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude
    of their riches;
49:7 None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a
    ransom for him:
49:8 (For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:
    )
49:9 That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption.
49:10 For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish
    person perish, and leave their wealth to others.
49:11 Their inward thought is, that their houses shall continue for ever,
    and their dwelling places to all generations; they call their lands
    after their own names.
49:12 Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts
    that perish.
49:13 This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve their
    sayings. Selah.
49:14 Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and
    the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their
    beauty shall consume in the grave from their dwelling.
49:15 But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall
    receive me. Selah.
49:16 Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house
    is increased;
49:17 For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not
    descend after him.
49:18 Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise thee,
    when thou doest well to thyself.
49:19 He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see
    light.
49:20 Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts
    that perish.
50:1 A Psalm of Asaph. The mighty God, even the LORD, hath spoken, and
    called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.
50:2 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined.
50:3 Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour
    before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.
50:4 He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that he may
    judge his people.
50:5 Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with
    me by sacrifice.
50:6 And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge
    himself. Selah.
50:7 Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify
    against thee: I am God, even thy God.
50:8 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt offerings, to
    have been continually before me.
50:9 I will take no bullock out of thy house, nor he goats out of thy folds.
50:10 For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a
    thousand hills.
50:11 I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the
    field are mine.
50:12 If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and
    the fulness thereof.
50:13 Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
50:14 Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High:
50:15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou
    shalt glorify me.
50:16 But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my
    statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth?
50:17 Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behind thee.
50:18 When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast
    been partaker with adulterers.
50:19 Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.
50:20 Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine
    own mother's son.
50:21 These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest
    that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee,
    and set them in order before thine eyes.
50:22 Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces,
    and there be none to deliver.
50:23 Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his
    conversation aright will I show the salvation of God.
51:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came
    unto him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba. Have mercy upon me, O God,
    according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy
    tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
51:2 Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
51:3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
51:4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy
    sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be
    clear when thou judgest.
51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me.
51:6 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part
    thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
51:7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be
    whiter than snow.
51:8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast
    broken may rejoice.
51:9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
51:11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me
    .
51:12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy
    free spirit.
51:13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be
    converted unto thee.
51:14 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and
    my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
51:15 O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall show forth thy praise.
51:16 For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou
    delightest not in burnt offering.
51:17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite
    heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
51:18 Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of
    Jerusalem.
51:19 Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with
    burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks
    upon thine altar.
52:1 To the chief Musician, Maschil, A Psalm of David, when Doeg the
    Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, David is come to the
    house of Ahimelech. Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man?
    the goodness of God endureth continually.
52:2 Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
52:3 Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak
    righteousness. Selah.
52:4 Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.
52:5 God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and
    pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of
    the living. Selah.
52:6 The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:
52:7 Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength; but trusted in
    the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.
52:8 But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the
    mercy of God for ever and ever.
52:9 I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it: and I will
    wait on thy name; for it is good before thy saints.
53:1 To the chief Musician upon Mahalath, Maschil, A Psalm of David. The
    fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and
    have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.
53:2 God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there
    were any that did understand, that did seek God.
53:3 Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy;
    there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
53:4 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as
    they eat bread: they have not called upon God.
53:5 There were they in great fear, where no fear was: for God hath
    scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee: thou hast put
    them to shame, because God hath despised them.
53:6 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God
    bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and
    Israel shall be glad.
54:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, A Psalm of David, when
    the Ziphims came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?
    Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength.
54:2 Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.
54:3 For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul:
    they have not set God before them. Selah.
54:4 Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my
    soul.
54:5 He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth.
54:6 I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for
    it is good.
54:7 For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen
    his desire upon mine enemies.
55:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, A Psalm of David. Give
    ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication.
55:2 Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise;
55:3 Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the
    wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.
55:4 My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen
    upon me.
55:5 Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me
    .
55:6 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away,
    and be at rest.
55:7 Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. Selah.
55:8 I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest.
55:9 Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen violence
    and strife in the city.
55:10 Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also
    and sorrow are in the midst of it.
55:11 Wickedness is in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart not from
    her streets.
55:12 For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have
    borne it: neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself
    against me; then I would have hid myself from him:
55:13 But it was thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance.
55:14 We took sweet counsel together, and walked unto the house of God in
    company.
55:15 Let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into hell: for
    wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them.
55:16 As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.
55:17 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he
    shall hear my voice.
55:18 He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me
    : for there were many with me.
55:19 God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah.
    Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.
55:20 He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he
    hath broken his covenant.
55:21 The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in
    his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.
55:22 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall
    never suffer the righteous to be moved.
55:23 But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction:
    bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will
    trust in thee.
56:1 To the chief Musician upon Jonathelemrechokim, Michtam of David, when
    the Philistines took him in Gath. Be merciful unto me, O God: for man
    would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.
56:2 Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight
    against me, O thou most High.
56:3 What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.
56:4 In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not
    fear what flesh can do unto me.
56:5 Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for
    evil.
56:6 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my
    steps, when they wait for my soul.
56:7 Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O
    God.
56:8 Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they
    not in thy book?
56:9 When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know;
    for God is for me.
56:10 In God will I praise his word: in the LORD will I praise his word.
56:11 In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me
    .
56:12 Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.
56:13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver
    my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the
    living?
57:1 To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David, when he fled from
    Saul in the cave. Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for
    my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my
    refuge, until these calamities be overpast.
57:2 I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things
    for me.
57:3 He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that
    would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.
57:4 My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them that are set on
    fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and
    their tongue a sharp sword.
57:5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above
    all the earth.
57:6 They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have
    digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen
    themselves. Selah.
57:7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.
57:8 Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake
    early.
57:9 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee
    among the nations.
57:10 For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the
    clouds.
57:11 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above
    all the earth.
58:1 To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David. Do ye indeed speak
    righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?
58:2 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands
    in the earth.
58:3 The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they
    be born, speaking lies.
58:4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the
    deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;
58:5 Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so
    wisely.
58:6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of
    the young lions, O LORD.
58:7 Let them melt away as waters which run continually: when he bendeth
    his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces.
58:8 As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like
    the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun.
58:9 Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a
    whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath.
58:10 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash
    his feet in the blood of the wicked.
58:11 So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous:
    verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.
59:1 To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David; when Saul sent,
    and they watched the house to kill him. Deliver me from mine enemies, O
    my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.
59:2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.
59:3 For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me
    ; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.
59:4 They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me,
    and behold.
59:5 Thou therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit
    all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah.
59:6 They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round
    about the city.
59:7 Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips:
    for who, say they, doth hear?
59:8 But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen
    in derision.
59:9 Because of his strength will I wait upon thee: for God is my defence.
59:10 The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see my desire
    upon mine enemies.
59:11 Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and
    bring them down, O Lord our shield.
59:12 For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them
    even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they
    speak.
59:13 Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and
    let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. Selah.
59:14 And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog,
    and go round about the city.
59:15 Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not
    satisfied.
59:16 But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in
    the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my
    trouble.
59:17 Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and
    the God of my mercy.
60:1 To the chief Musician upon Shushaneduth, Michtam of David, to teach;
    when he strove with Aramnaharaim and with Aramzobah, when Joab returned,
    and smote of Edom in the valley of salt twelve thousand. O God, thou
    hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O
    turn thyself to us again.
60:2 Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the
    breaches thereof; for it shaketh.
60:3 Thou hast showed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the
    wine of astonishment.
60:4 Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be
    displayed because of the truth. Selah.
60:5 That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me
    .
60:6 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem,
    and mete out the valley of Succoth.
60:7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the
    strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
60:8 Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia,
    triumph thou because of me.
60:9 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
60:10 Wilt not thou, O God, which hadst cast us off? and thou, O God,
    which didst not go out with our armies?
60:11 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
60:12 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread
    down our enemies.
61:1 To the chief Musician upon Neginah, A Psalm of David. Hear my cry, O
    God; attend unto my prayer.
61:2 From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is
    overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
61:3 For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.
61:4 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of
    thy wings. Selah.
61:5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage
    of those that fear thy name.
61:6 Thou wilt prolong the king's life: and his years as many generations.
61:7 He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which
    may preserve him.
61:8 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform
    my vows.
62:1 To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David. Truly my soul
    waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation.
62:2 He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not
    be greatly moved.
62:3 How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all
    of you: as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence.
62:4 They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they delight
    in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.
62:5 My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.
62:6 He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not
    be moved.
62:7 In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and
    my refuge, is in God.
62:8 Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him:
    God is a refuge for us. Selah.
62:9 Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a
    lie: to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than
    vanity.
62:10 Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches
    increase, set not your heart upon them.
62:11 God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth
    unto God.
62:12 Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every
    man according to his work.
63:1 A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, thou
    art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my
    flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
63:2 To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the
    sanctuary.
63:3 Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise
    thee.
63:4 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
63:5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth
    shall praise thee with joyful lips:
63:6 When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night
    watches.
63:7 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings
    will I rejoice.
63:8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
63:9 But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower
    parts of the earth.
63:10 They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
63:11 But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him
    shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
64:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Hear my voice, O God, in my
    prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
64:2 Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the insurrection of
    the workers of iniquity:
64:3 Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot
    their arrows, even bitter words:
64:4 That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at
    him, and fear not.
64:5 They encourage themselves in an evil matter: they commune of laying
    snares privily; they say, Who shall see them?
64:6 They search out iniquities; they accomplish a diligent search: both the
    inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.
64:7 But God shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be
    wounded.
64:8 So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that
    see them shall flee away.
64:9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they
    shall wisely consider of his doing.
64:10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and
    all the upright in heart shall glory.
65:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm and Song of David. Praise waiteth for
    thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the vow be performed.
65:2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.
65:3 Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou shalt
    purge them away.
65:4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto
    thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the
    goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple.
65:5 By terrible things in righteousness wilt thou answer us, O God of our
    salvation; who art the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of
    them that are afar off upon the sea:
65:6 Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded with
    power:
65:7 Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the
    tumult of the people.
65:8 They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens:
    thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.
65:9 Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it
    with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them corn,
    when thou hast so provided for it.
65:10 Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrows
    thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the springing
    thereof.
65:11 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness.
65:12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills
    rejoice on every side.
65:13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered
    over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.
66:1 To the chief Musician, A Song or Psalm. Make a joyful noise unto God,
    all ye lands:
66:2 Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.
66:3 Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy works! through the
    greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.
66:4 All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall
    sing to thy name. Selah.
66:5 Come and see the works of God: he is terrible in his doing toward
    the children of men.
66:6 He turned the sea into dry land: they went through the flood on foot:
    there did we rejoice in him.
66:7 He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not
    the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.
66:8 O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:
66:9 Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.
66:10 For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.
66:11 Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our loins.
66:12 Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and
    through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.
66:13 I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows,
66:14 Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in
    trouble.
66:15 I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense
    of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah.
66:16 Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath
    done for my soul.
66:17 I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
66:18 If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:
66:19 But verily God hath heard me; he hath attended to the voice of my
    prayer.
66:20 Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy
    from me.
67:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm or Song. God be merciful
    unto us, and bless us; and cause his face to shine upon us; Selah.
67:2 That thy way may be known upon earth, thy saving health among all
    nations.
67:3 Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.
67:4 O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for thou shalt judge the
    people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Selah.
67:5 Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.
67:6 Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God,
    shall bless us.
67:7 God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
68:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm or Song of David. Let God arise, let
    his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him.
68:2 As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before
    the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
68:3 But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God: yea, let
    them exceedingly rejoice.
68:4 Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the
    heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him.
68:5 A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his
    holy habitation.
68:6 God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are
    bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.
68:7 O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march
    through the wilderness; Selah:
68:8 The earth shook, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God: even
    Sinai itself was moved at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
68:9 Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain, whereby thou didst confirm
    thine inheritance, when it was weary.
68:10 Thy congregation hath dwelt therein: thou, O God, hast prepared of thy
    goodness for the poor.
68:11 The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that
    published it.
68:12 Kings of armies did flee apace: and she that tarried at home divided
    the spoil.
68:13 Though ye have lien among the pots, yet shall ye be as the wings of a
    dove covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold.
68:14 When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it was white as snow in
    Salmon.
68:15 The hill of God is as the hill of Bashan; an high hill as the hill
    of Bashan.
68:16 Why leap ye, ye high hills? this is the hill which God desireth to
    dwell in; yea, the LORD will dwell in it for ever.
68:17 The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels:
    the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place.
68:18 Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast
    received gifts for men; yea, for the rebellious also, that the LORD
    God might dwell among them.
68:19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even
    the God of our salvation. Selah.
68:20 He that is our God is the God of salvation; and unto GOD the Lord
    belong the issues from death.
68:21 But God shall wound the head of his enemies, and the hairy scalp of
    such an one as goeth on still in his trespasses.
68:22 The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring my people
    again from the depths of the sea:
68:23 That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies, and the
    tongue of thy dogs in the same.
68:24 They have seen thy goings, O God; even the goings of my God, my King,
    in the sanctuary.
68:25 The singers went before, the players on instruments followed after;
    among them were the damsels playing with timbrels.
68:26 Bless ye God in the congregations, even the Lord, from the fountain
    of Israel.
68:27 There is little Benjamin with their ruler, the princes of Judah
    and their council, the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali.
68:28 Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which
    thou hast wrought for us.
68:29 Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee.
68:30 Rebuke the company of spearmen, the multitude of the bulls, with the
    calves of the people, till every one submit himself with pieces of
    silver: scatter thou the people that delight in war.
68:31 Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her
    hands unto God.
68:32 Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises unto the Lord;
    Selah:
68:33 To him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, which were of old; lo,
    he doth send out his voice, and that a mighty voice.
68:34 Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel, and his
    strength is in the clouds.
68:35 O God, thou art terrible out of thy holy places: the God of Israel is
     he that giveth strength and power unto his people. Blessed be God.
69:1 To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, A Psalm of David. Save me, O
    God; for the waters are come in unto my soul.
69:2 I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep
    waters, where the floods overflow me.
69:3 I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I
    wait for my God.
69:4 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head:
    they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty:
    then I restored that which I took not away.
69:5 O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee.
69:6 Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed for my
    sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of
    Israel.
69:7 Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.
69:8 I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's
    children.
69:9 For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of
    them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
69:10 When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my
    reproach.
69:11 I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them.
69:12 They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of
    the drunkards.
69:13 But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O LORD, in an acceptable
    time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy
    salvation.
69:14 Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered
    from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
69:15 Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up,
    and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
69:16 Hear me, O LORD; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me
    according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
69:17 And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me
    speedily.
69:18 Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine
    enemies.
69:19 Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine
    adversaries are all before thee.
69:20 Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I
    looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters,
    but I found none.
69:21 They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me
    vinegar to drink.
69:22 Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should
    have been for their welfare, let it become a trap.
69:23 Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins
    continually to shake.
69:24 Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take
    hold of them.
69:25 Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.
69:26 For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the
    grief of those whom thou hast wounded.
69:27 Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy
    righteousness.
69:28 Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written
    with the righteous.
69:29 But I am poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on
    high.
69:30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with
    thanksgiving.
69:31 This also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that
    hath horns and hoofs.
69:32 The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live
    that seek God.
69:33 For the LORD heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners.
69:34 Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that
    moveth therein.
69:35 For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they
    may dwell there, and have it in possession.
69:36 The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love his
    name shall dwell therein.
70:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance.
    Make haste, O God, to deliver me; make haste to help me, O LORD.
70:2 Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them be
    turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt.
70:3 Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha.
70:4 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such
    as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.
70:5 But I am poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: thou art my
    help and my deliverer; O LORD, make no tarrying.
71:1 In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.
71:2 Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine
    ear unto me, and save me.
71:3 Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou
    hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress.
71:4 Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of
    the unrighteous and cruel man.
71:5 For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: thou art my trust from my youth.
71:6 By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art he that took me
    out of my mother's bowels: my praise shall be continually of thee.
71:7 I am as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge.
71:8 Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all the
    day.
71:9 Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength
    faileth.
71:10 For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul
    take counsel together,
71:11 Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute and take him; for there is
    none to deliver him.
71:12 O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help.
71:13 Let them be confounded and consumed that are adversaries to my soul;
    let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt.
71:14 But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and more.
71:15 My mouth shall show forth thy righteousness and thy salvation all
    the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.
71:16 I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy
    righteousness, even of thine only.
71:17 O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared
    thy wondrous works.
71:18 Now also when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I
    have showed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to
    every one that is to come.
71:19 Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great
    things: O God, who is like unto thee!
71:20 Thou, which hast showed me great and sore troubles, shalt quicken me
    again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
71:21 Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.
71:22 I will also praise thee with the psaltery, even thy truth, O my God:
    unto thee will I sing with the harp, O thou Holy One of Israel.
71:23 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul,
    which thou hast redeemed.
71:24 My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long: for
    they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame, that seek my hurt.
72:1 A Psalm for Solomon. Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy
    righteousness unto the king's son.
72:2 He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with judgment.
72:3 The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little hills, by
    righteousness.
72:4 He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall save the children of
    the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor.
72:5 They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout all
    generations.
72:6 He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that
    water the earth.
72:7 In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so
    long as the moon endureth.
72:8 He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto
    the ends of the earth.
72:9 They that dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him; and his enemies
    shall lick the dust.
72:10 The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents: the kings
    of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
72:11 Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve him.
72:12 For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him
    that hath no helper.
72:13 He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the
    needy.
72:14 He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious
    shall their blood be in his sight.
72:15 And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba:
    prayer also shall be made for him continually; and daily shall he be
    praised.
72:16 There shall be an handful of corn in the earth upon the top of the
    mountains; the fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon: and they of the
    city shall flourish like grass of the earth.
72:17 His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as long as
    the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him
    blessed.
72:18 Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous
    things.
72:19 And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth
    be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen.
72:20 The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
73:1 A Psalm of Asaph. Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are
    of a clean heart.
73:2 But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.
73:3 For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the
    wicked.
73:4 For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm.
73:5 They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like
    other men.
73:6 Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth
    them as a garment.
73:7 Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
73:8 They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they
    speak loftily.
73:9 They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh
    through the earth.
73:10 Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are
    wrung out to them.
73:11 And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most
    High?
73:12 Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they
    increase in riches.
73:13 Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in
    innocency.
73:14 For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
73:15 If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the
    generation of thy children.
73:16 When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;
73:17 Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.
73:18 Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down
    into destruction.
73:19 How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are
    utterly consumed with terrors.
73:20 As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou
    shalt despise their image.
73:21 Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.
73:22 So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee.
73:23 Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my
    right hand.
73:24 Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to
    glory.
73:25 Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that
    I desire beside thee.
73:26 My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart,
    and my portion for ever.
73:27 For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed
    all them that go a whoring from thee.
73:28 But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in
    the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.
74:1 Maschil of Asaph. O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? why
    doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?
74:2 Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old; the rod
    of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed; this mount Zion,
    wherein thou hast dwelt.
74:3 Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations; even all that the
    enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.
74:4 Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up their
    ensigns for signs.
74:5 A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick
    trees.
74:6 But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and
    hammers.
74:7 They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, they have defiled by casting
    down the dwelling place of thy name to the ground.
74:8 They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have
    burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.
74:9 We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there
    among us any that knoweth how long.
74:10 O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy
    blaspheme thy name for ever?
74:11 Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck it out of
    thy bosom.
74:12 For God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the
    earth.
74:13 Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of
    the dragons in the waters.
74:14 Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces, and gavest him to be
    meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness.
74:15 Thou didst cleave the fountain and the flood: thou driedst up mighty
    rivers.
74:16 The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the
    light and the sun.
74:17 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and
    winter.
74:18 Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O LORD, and that
    the foolish people have blasphemed thy name.
74:19 O deliver not the soul of thy turtledove unto the multitude of the
    wicked: forget not the congregation of thy poor for ever.
74:20 Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are
    full of the habitations of cruelty.
74:21 O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise
    thy name.
74:22 Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish man
    reproacheth thee daily.
74:23 Forget not the voice of thine enemies: the tumult of those that rise
    up against thee increaseth continually.
75:1 To the chief Musician, Altaschith, A Psalm or Song of Asaph. Unto thee,
    O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that thy
    name is near thy wondrous works declare.
75:2 When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.
75:3 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the
    pillars of it. Selah.
75:4 I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not
    up the horn:
75:5 Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.
75:6 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor
    from the south.
75:7 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.
75:8 For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red; it
    is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof,
    all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.
75:9 But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
75:10 All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of
    the righteous shall be exalted.
76:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm or Song of Asaph. In Judah
    is God known: his name is great in Israel.
76:2 In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.
76:3 There brake he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and
    the battle. Selah.
76:4 Thou art more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey.
76:5 The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of
    the men of might have found their hands.
76:6 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast into a
    dead sleep.
76:7 Thou, even thou, art to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight
    when once thou art angry?
76:8 Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared,
    and was still,
76:9 When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. Selah.
76:10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath
    shalt thou restrain.
76:11 Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God: let all that be round about him
    bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.
76:12 He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the kings
    of the earth.
77:1 To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of Asaph. I cried unto God
    with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me.
77:2 In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night,
    and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted.
77:3 I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was
    overwhelmed. Selah.
77:4 Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
77:5 I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
77:6 I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own
    heart: and my spirit made diligent search.
77:7 Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?
77:8 Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore?
77:9 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender
    mercies? Selah.
77:10 And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of
    the right hand of the most High.
77:11 I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy
    wonders of old.
77:12 I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.
77:13 Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our
    God?
77:14 Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength
    among the people.
77:15 Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and
    Joseph. Selah.
77:16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the
    depths also were troubled.
77:17 The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows
    also went abroad.
77:18 The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened
    the world: the earth trembled and shook.
77:19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy
    footsteps are not known.
77:20 Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
78:1 Maschil of Asaph. Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline your ears
    to the words of my mouth.
78:2 I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old:
78:3 Which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us.
78:4 We will not hide them from their children, showing to the generation
    to come the praises of the LORD, and his strength, and his wonderful
    works that he hath done.
78:5 For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel,
    which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to
    their children:
78:6 That the generation to come might know them, even the children which
    should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children:
78:7 That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God,
    but keep his commandments:
78:8 And might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation;
    a generation that set not their heart aright, and whose spirit was not
    stedfast with God.
78:9 The children of Ephraim, being armed, and carrying bows, turned
    back in the day of battle.
78:10 They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in his law;
78:11 And forgat his works, and his wonders that he had showed them.
78:12 Marvellous things did he in the sight of their fathers, in the land of
    Egypt, in the field of Zoan.
78:13 He divided the sea, and caused them to pass through; and he made the
    waters to stand as an heap.
78:14 In the daytime also he led them with a cloud, and all the night with a
    light of fire.
78:15 He clave the rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink as out of
    the great depths.
78:16 He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run down
    like rivers.
78:17 And they sinned yet more against him by provoking the most High in the
    wilderness.
78:18 And they tempted God in their heart by asking meat for their lust.
78:19 Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish a table in the
    wilderness?
78:20 Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and the streams
    overflowed; can he give bread also? can he provide flesh for his people?
78:21 Therefore the LORD heard this, and was wroth: so a fire was kindled
    against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel;
78:22 Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his salvation:
78:23 Though he had commanded the clouds from above, and opened the doors of
    heaven,
78:24 And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had given them of the
    corn of heaven.
78:25 Man did eat angels' food: he sent them meat to the full.
78:26 He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven: and by his power he
    brought in the south wind.
78:27 He rained flesh also upon them as dust, and feathered fowls like as
    the sand of the sea:
78:28 And he let it fall in the midst of their camp, round about their
    habitations.
78:29 So they did eat, and were well filled: for he gave them their own
    desire;
78:30 They were not estranged from their lust. But while their meat was
    yet in their mouths,
78:31 The wrath of God came upon them, and slew the fattest of them, and
    smote down the chosen men of Israel.
78:32 For all this they sinned still, and believed not for his wondrous works.
78:33 Therefore their days did he consume in vanity, and their years in
    trouble.
78:34 When he slew them, then they sought him: and they returned and
    inquired early after God.
78:35 And they remembered that God was their rock, and the high God their
    redeemer.
78:36 Nevertheless they did flatter him with their mouth, and they lied unto
    him with their tongues.
78:37 For their heart was not right with him, neither were they stedfast in
    his covenant.
78:38 But he, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and
    destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away, and did
    not stir up all his wrath.
78:39 For he remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that passeth away,
    and cometh not again.
78:40 How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness, and grieve him in
    the desert!
78:41 Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of
    Israel.
78:42 They remembered not his hand, nor the day when he delivered them
    from the enemy.
78:43 How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field of
    Zoan:
78:44 And had turned their rivers into blood; and their floods, that they
    could not drink.
78:45 He sent divers sorts of flies among them, which devoured them; and
    frogs, which destroyed them.
78:46 He gave also their increase unto the caterpillar, and their labour
    unto the locust.
78:47 He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycamore trees with frost.
78:48 He gave up their cattle also to the hail, and their flocks to hot
    thunderbolts.
78:49 He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and indignation,
    and trouble, by sending evil angels among them.
78:50 He made a way to his anger; he spared not their soul from death, but
    gave their life over to the pestilence;
78:51 And smote all the firstborn in Egypt; the chief of their strength in
    the tabernacles of Ham:
78:52 But made his own people to go forth like sheep, and guided them in the
    wilderness like a flock.
78:53 And he led them on safely, so that they feared not: but the sea
    overwhelmed their enemies.
78:54 And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary, even to this
    mountain, which his right hand had purchased.
78:55 He cast out the heathen also before them, and divided them an
    inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their
    tents.
78:56 Yet they tempted and provoked the most high God, and kept not his
    testimonies:
78:57 But turned back, and dealt unfaithfully like their fathers: they were
    turned aside like a deceitful bow.
78:58 For they provoked him to anger with their high places, and moved him
    to jealousy with their graven images.
78:59 When God heard this, he was wroth, and greatly abhorred Israel:
78:60 So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent which he
    placed among men;
78:61 And delivered his strength into captivity, and his glory into the enemy'
    s hand.
78:62 He gave his people over also unto the sword; and was wroth with his
    inheritance.
78:63 The fire consumed their young men; and their maidens were not given to
    marriage.
78:64 Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows made no lamentation.
78:65 Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep, and like a mighty man that
    shouteth by reason of wine.
78:66 And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts: he put them to a
    perpetual reproach.
78:67 Moreover he refused the tabernacle of Joseph, and chose not the tribe
    of Ephraim:
78:68 But chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which he loved.
78:69 And he built his sanctuary like high palaces, like the earth which
    he hath established for ever.
78:70 He chose David also his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds:
78:71 From following the ewes great with young he brought him to feed Jacob
    his people, and Israel his inheritance.
78:72 So he fed them according to the integrity of his heart; and guided
    them by the skilfulness of his hands.
79:1 A Psalm of Asaph. O God, the heathen are come into thine inheritance;
    thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem on heaps.
79:2 The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat unto the
    fowls of the heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.
79:3 Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem; and there
    was none to bury them.
79:4 We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to
    them that are round about us.
79:5 How long, LORD? wilt thou be angry for ever? shall thy jealousy burn
    like fire?
79:6 Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that have not known thee, and upon
    the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.
79:7 For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his dwelling place.
79:8 O remember not against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies
    speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low.
79:9 Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy name: and deliver us
    , and purge away our sins, for thy name's sake.
79:10 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is their God? let him be
    known among the heathen in our sight by the revenging of the blood of
    thy servants which is shed.
79:11 Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee; according to the
    greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to die;
79:12 And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their
    reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.
79:13 So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for
    ever: we will show forth thy praise to all generations.
80:1 To the chief Musician upon Shoshannimeduth, A Psalm of Asaph. Give ear, O
    Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that
    dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth.
80:2 Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and come
    and save us.
80:3 Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
80:4 O LORD God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of
    thy people?
80:5 Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to
    drink in great measure.
80:6 Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh
    among themselves.
80:7 Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause thy face to shine; and we
    shall be saved.
80:8 Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen,
    and planted it.
80:9 Thou preparedst room before it, and didst cause it to take deep root,
    and it filled the land.
80:10 The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof
    were like the goodly cedars.
80:11 She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river.
80:12 Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all they which
    pass by the way do pluck her?
80:13 The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the
    field doth devour it.
80:14 Return, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and
    behold, and visit this vine;
80:15 And the vineyard which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch
    that thou madest strong for thyself.
80:16 It is burned with fire, it is cut down: they perish at the rebuke
    of thy countenance.
80:17 Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man
    whom thou madest strong for thyself.
80:18 So will not we go back from thee: quicken us, and we will call upon
    thy name.
80:19 Turn us again, O LORD God of hosts, cause thy face to shine; and we
    shall be saved.
81:1 To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of Asaph. Sing aloud unto
    God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.
81:2 Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the
    psaltery.
81:3 Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our
    solemn feast day.
81:4 For this was a statute for Israel, and a law of the God of Jacob.
81:5 This he ordained in Joseph for a testimony, when he went out through
    the land of Egypt: where I heard a language that I understood not.
81:6 I removed his shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from
    the pots.
81:7 Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee; I answered thee in the
    secret place of thunder: I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah.
81:8 Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt
    hearken unto me;
81:9 There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any
    strange god.
81:10 I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt:
    open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
81:11 But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me
    .
81:12 So I gave them up unto their own hearts' lust: and they walked in
    their own counsels.
81:13 Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my
    ways!
81:14 I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against
    their adversaries.
81:15 The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him: but
    their time should have endured for ever.
81:16 He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with
    honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee.
82:1 A Psalm of Asaph. God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he
    judgeth among the gods.
82:2 How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked?
    Selah.
82:3 Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.
82:4 Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.
82:5 They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness:
    all the foundations of the earth are out of course.
82:6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most
    High.
82:7 But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.
82:8 Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.
83:1 A Song or Psalm of Asaph. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy
    peace, and be not still, O God.
83:2 For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have
    lifted up the head.
83:3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted
    against thy hidden ones.
83:4 They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation;
    that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
83:5 For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate
    against thee:
83:6 The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
83:7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of
    Tyre;
83:8 Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot.
    Selah.
83:9 Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin,
    at the brook of Kison:
83:10 Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.
83:11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as
    Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
83:12 Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
83:13 O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
83:14 As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on
    fire;
83:15 So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
83:16 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
83:17 Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to
    shame, and perish:
83:18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art
    the most high over all the earth.
84:1 To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. How
    amiable are thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!
84:2 My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my
    heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.
84:3 Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself,
    where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O LORD of hosts, my
    King, and my God.
84:4 Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising
    thee. Selah.
84:5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are
    the ways of them.
84:6 Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also
    filleth the pools.
84:7 They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion
    appeareth before God.
84:8 O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah.
84:9 Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
84:10 For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a
    doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of
    wickedness.
84:11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and
    glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
84:12 O LORD of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
85:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. LORD, thou hast
    been favourable unto thy land: thou hast brought back the captivity of
    Jacob.
85:2 Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all
    their sin. Selah.
85:3 Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thyself from the
    fierceness of thine anger.
85:4 Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to
    cease.
85:5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to
    all generations?
85:6 Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?
85:7 Show us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation.
85:8 I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace unto
    his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.
85:9 Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell
    in our land.
85:10 Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed
    each other.
85:11 Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down
    from heaven.
85:12 Yea, the LORD shall give that which is good; and our land shall
    yield her increase.
85:13 Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of
    his steps.
86:1 A Prayer of David. Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor
    and needy.
86:2 Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that
    trusteth in thee.
86:3 Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily.
86:4 Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my
    soul.
86:5 For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in
    mercy unto all them that call upon thee.
86:6 Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my
    supplications.
86:7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.
86:8 Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; neither are
    there any works like unto thy works.
86:9 All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O
    Lord; and shall glorify thy name.
86:10 For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.
86:11 Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to
    fear thy name.
86:12 I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will
    glorify thy name for evermore.
86:13 For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul
    from the lowest hell.
86:14 O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent
    men have sought after my soul; and have not set thee before them.
86:15 But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious,
    longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.
86:16 O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy
    servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.
86:17 Show me a token for good; that they which hate me may see it, and be
    ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast holpen me, and comforted me.
87:1 A Psalm or Song for the sons of Korah. His foundation is in the
    holy mountains.
87:2 The LORD loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
87:3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah.
87:4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold
    Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man was born there.
87:5 And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and
    the highest himself shall establish her.
87:6 The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man
    was born there. Selah.
87:7 As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all
    my springs are in thee.
88:1 A Song or Psalm for the sons of Korah, to the chief Musician upon
    Mahalath Leannoth, Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite. O LORD God of my
    salvation, I have cried day and night before thee:
88:2 Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry;
88:3 For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the grave.
88:4 I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man that
    hath no strength:
88:5 Free among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou
    rememberest no more: and they are cut off from thy hand.
88:6 Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps.
88:7 Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy
    waves. Selah.
88:8 Thou hast put away mine acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an
    abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.
88:9 Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily
    upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee.
88:10 Wilt thou show wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise and praise
    thee? Selah.
88:11 Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave? or thy
    faithfulness in destruction?
88:12 Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the
    land of forgetfulness?
88:13 But unto thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer
    prevent thee.
88:14 LORD, why castest thou off my soul? why hidest thou thy face from me?
88:15 I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer
    thy terrors I am distracted.
88:16 Thy fierce wrath goeth over me; thy terrors have cut me off.
88:17 They came round about me daily like water; they compassed me about
    together.
88:18 Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, and mine acquaintance
    into darkness.
89:1 Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite. I will sing of the mercies of the LORD
    for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all
    generations.
89:2 For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness
    shalt thou establish in the very heavens.
89:3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my
    servant,
89:4 Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all
    generations. Selah.
89:5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD: thy faithfulness also
    in the congregation of the saints.
89:6 For who in the heaven can be compared unto the LORD? who among the
    sons of the mighty can be likened unto the LORD?
89:7 God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be
    had in reverence of all them that are about him.
89:8 O LORD God of hosts, who is a strong LORD like unto thee? or to thy
    faithfulness round about thee?
89:9 Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou
    stillest them.
89:10 Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast
    scattered thine enemies with thy strong arm.
89:11 The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world
    and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.
89:12 The north and the south thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon shall
    rejoice in thy name.
89:13 Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right
    hand.
89:14 Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and
    truth shall go before thy face.
89:15 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O
    LORD, in the light of thy countenance.
89:16 In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness
    shall they be exalted.
89:17 For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn
    shall be exalted.
89:18 For the LORD is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.
89:19 Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid
    help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the
    people.
89:20 I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
89:21 With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen
    him.
89:22 The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict
    him.
89:23 And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that
    hate him.
89:24 But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name
    shall his horn be exalted.
89:25 I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
89:26 He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my
    salvation.
89:27 Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.
89:28 My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand
    fast with him.
89:29 His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the
    days of heaven.
89:30 If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
89:31 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
89:32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity
    with stripes.
89:33 Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor
    suffer my faithfulness to fail.
89:34 My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of
    my lips.
89:35 Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.
89:36 His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.
89:37 It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful
    witness in heaven. Selah.
89:38 But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine
    anointed.
89:39 Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned
    his crown by casting it to the ground.
89:40 Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong
    holds to ruin.
89:41 All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours.
89:42 Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all
    his enemies to rejoice.
89:43 Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to
    stand in the battle.
89:44 Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the
    ground.
89:45 The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with
    shame. Selah.
89:46 How long, LORD? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy wrath burn
    like fire?
89:47 Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in vain?
89:48 What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he
    deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.
89:49 Lord, where are thy former lovingkindnesses, which thou swarest
    unto David in thy truth?
89:50 Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my
    bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;
89:51 Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O LORD; wherewith they have
    reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.
89:52 Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
90:1 A Prayer of Moses the man of God. LORD, thou hast been our dwelling
    place in all generations.
90:2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the
    earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
90:3 Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.
90:4 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past,
    and as a watch in the night.
90:5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the
    morning they are like grass which groweth up.
90:6 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut
    down, and withereth.
90:7 For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.
90:8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the
    light of thy countenance.
90:9 For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a
    tale that is told.
90:10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason
    of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour
    and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
90:11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is
     thy wrath.
90:12 So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto
    wisdom.
90:13 Return, O LORD, how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy
    servants.
90:14 O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all
    our days.
90:15 Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us,
    and the years wherein we have seen evil.
90:16 Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their
    children.
90:17 And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou
    the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it
    .
91:1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under
    the shadow of the Almighty.
91:2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in
    him will I trust.
91:3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from
    the noisome pestilence.
91:4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou
    trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
91:5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow
    that flieth by day;
91:6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the
    destruction that wasteth at noonday.
91:7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand;
    but it shall not come nigh thee.
91:8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
91:9 Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most
    High, thy habitation;
91:10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh
    thy dwelling.
91:11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy
    ways.
91:12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot
    against a stone.
91:13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the
    dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
91:14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I
    will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
91:15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in
    trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
91:16 With long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation.
92:1 A Psalm or Song for the sabbath day. It is a good thing to give
    thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:
92:2 To show forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness
    every night,
92:3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp
    with a solemn sound.
92:4 For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in
    the works of thy hands.
92:5 O LORD, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.
92:6 A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.
92:7 When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of
    iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:
92:8 But thou, LORD, art most high for evermore.
92:9 For, lo, thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish;
    all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
92:10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be
    anointed with fresh oil.
92:11 Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears
    shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.
92:12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a
    cedar in Lebanon.
92:13 Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the
    courts of our God.
92:14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and
    flourishing;
92:15 To show that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no
    unrighteousness in him.
93:1 The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with
    strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is
    stablished, that it cannot be moved.
93:2 Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.
93:3 The floods have lifted up, O LORD, the floods have lifted up their voice;
    the floods lift up their waves.
93:4 The LORD on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, yea, than
    the mighty waves of the sea.
93:5 Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thine house, O LORD,
    for ever.
94:1 O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance
    belongeth, show thyself.
94:2 Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: render a reward to the proud.
94:3 LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?
94:4 How long shall they utter and speak hard things? and all the
    workers of iniquity boast themselves?
94:5 They break in pieces thy people, O LORD, and afflict thine heritage.
94:6 They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.
94:7 Yet they say, The LORD shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob
    regard it.
94:8 Understand, ye brutish among the people: and ye fools, when will ye
    be wise?
94:9 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye,
    shall he not see?
94:10 He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth
    man knowledge, shall not he know?
94:11 The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.
94:12 Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him
    out of thy law;
94:13 That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the
    pit be digged for the wicked.
94:14 For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his
    inheritance.
94:15 But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in
    heart shall follow it.
94:16 Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up
    for me against the workers of iniquity?
94:17 Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.
94:18 When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.
94:19 In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.
94:20 Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth
    mischief by a law?
94:21 They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and
    condemn the innocent blood.
94:22 But the LORD is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge.
94:23 And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them
    off in their own wickedness; yea, the LORD our God shall cut them off.
95:1 O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the
    rock of our salvation.
95:2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful
    noise unto him with psalms.
95:3 For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
95:4 In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the
    hills is his also.
95:5 The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.
95:6 O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our
    maker.
95:7 For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the
    sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,
95:8 Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of
    temptation in the wilderness:
95:9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.
95:10 Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is
    a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:
95:11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.
96:1 O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.
96:2 Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; show forth his salvation from day
    to day.
96:3 Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.
96:4 For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be
    feared above all gods.
96:5 For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the
    heavens.
96:6 Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his
    sanctuary.
96:7 Give unto the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD
    glory and strength.
96:8 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering,
    and come into his courts.
96:9 O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the
    earth.
96:10 Say among the heathen that the LORD reigneth: the world also shall
    be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people
    righteously.
96:11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar,
    and the fulness thereof.
96:12 Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the
    trees of the wood rejoice
96:13 Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he
    shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.
97:1 The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be
    glad thereof.
97:2 Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment
    are the habitation of his throne.
97:3 A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.
97:4 His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.
97:5 The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence
    of the Lord of the whole earth.
97:6 The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
97:7 Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves
    of idols: worship him, all ye gods.
97:8 Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because
    of thy judgments, O LORD.
97:9 For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far
    above all gods.
97:10 Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints;
    he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
97:11 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
97:12 Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance
    of his holiness.
98:1 A Psalm. O sing unto the LORD a new song; for he hath done marvellous
    things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.
98:2 The LORD hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he
    openly showed in the sight of the heathen.
98:3 He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel:
    all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
98:4 Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise,
    and rejoice, and sing praise.
98:5 Sing unto the LORD with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a
    psalm.
98:6 With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the LORD,
    the King.
98:7 Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that
    dwell therein.
98:8 Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together
98:9 Before the LORD; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness
    shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.
99:1 The LORD reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the
    cherubims; let the earth be moved.
99:2 The LORD is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people.
99:3 Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.
99:4 The king's strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity,
    thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.
99:5 Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is
    holy.
99:6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon
    his name; they called upon the LORD, and he answered them.
99:7 He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and
    the ordinance that he gave them.
99:8 Thou answeredst them, O LORD our God: thou wast a God that forgavest
    them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.
99:9 Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our
    God is holy.
100:1 A Psalm of praise. Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.
100:2 Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing.
100:3 Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and
    not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
100:4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with
    praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
100:5 For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth
    endureth to all generations.
101:1 A Psalm of David. I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD,
    will I sing.
101:2 I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come
    unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
101:3 I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them
    that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.
101:4 A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.
101:5 Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that
    hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
101:6 Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may
    dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.
101:7 He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that
    telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.
101:8 I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off
    all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.
102:1 A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed, and poureth out his
    complaint before the LORD. Hear my prayer, O LORD, and let my cry come
    unto thee.
102:2 Hide not thy face from me in the day when I am in trouble; incline
    thine ear unto me: in the day when I call answer me speedily.
102:3 For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned as an
    hearth.
102:4 My heart is smitten, and withered like grass; so that I forget to eat
    my bread.
102:5 By reason of the voice of my groaning my bones cleave to my skin.
102:6 I am like a pelican of the wilderness: I am like an owl of the desert.
102:7 I watch, and am as a sparrow alone upon the house top.
102:8 Mine enemies reproach me all the day; and they that are mad against
    me are sworn against me.
102:9 For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping,
102:10 Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: for thou hast lifted me up,
    and cast me down.
102:11 My days are like a shadow that declineth; and I am withered like
    grass.
102:12 But thou, O LORD, shalt endure for ever; and thy remembrance unto all
    generations.
102:13 Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour
    her, yea, the set time, is come.
102:14 For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favour the dust
    thereof.
102:15 So the heathen shall fear the name of the LORD, and all the kings of
    the earth thy glory.
102:16 When the LORD shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory.
102:17 He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their
    prayer.
102:18 This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people
    which shall be created shall praise the LORD.
102:19 For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven
    did the LORD behold the earth;
102:20 To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are
    appointed to death;
102:21 To declare the name of the LORD in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem;
102:22 When the people are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve the
    LORD.
102:23 He weakened my strength in the way; he shortened my days.
102:24 I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years
    are throughout all generations.
102:25 Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens
    are the work of thy hands.
102:26 They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax
    old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall
    be changed:
102:27 But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end.
102:28 The children of thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall be
    established before thee.
103:1 A Psalm of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me
    , bless his holy name.
103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
103:3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
103:4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with
    lovingkindness and tender mercies;
103:5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is
    renewed like the eagle's.
103:6 The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are
    oppressed.
103:7 He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
103:8 The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in
    mercy.
103:9 He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.
103:10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according
    to our iniquities.
103:11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy
    toward them that fear him.
103:12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our
    transgressions from us.
103:13 Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them
    that fear him.
103:14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.
103:15 As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so
    he flourisheth.
103:16 For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof
    shall know it no more.
103:17 But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon
    them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children;
103:18 To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his
    commandments to do them.
103:19 The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom
    ruleth over all.
103:20 Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his
    commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
103:21 Bless ye the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do
    his pleasure.
103:22 Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless
    the LORD, O my soul.
104:1 Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou
    art clothed with honour and majesty.
104:2 Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest
    out the heavens like a curtain:
104:3 Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the
    clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:
104:4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:
104:5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be
    removed for ever.
104:6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood
    above the mountains.
104:7 At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away.
104:8 They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the
    place which thou hast founded for them.
104:9 Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not
    again to cover the earth.
104:10 He sendeth the springs into the valleys, which run among the hills.
104:11 They give drink to every beast of the field: the wild asses quench
    their thirst.
104:12 By them shall the fowls of the heaven have their habitation, which
    sing among the branches.
104:13 He watereth the hills from his chambers: the earth is satisfied with
    the fruit of thy works.
104:14 He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service
    of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;
104:15 And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his
    face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man's heart.
104:16 The trees of the LORD are full of sap; the cedars of Lebanon, which
    he hath planted;
104:17 Where the birds make their nests: as for the stork, the fir trees
    are her house.
104:18 The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats; and the rocks for
    the conies.
104:19 He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.
104:20 Thou makest darkness, and it is night: wherein all the beasts of the
    forest do creep forth.
104:21 The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their meat from God.
104:22 The sun ariseth, they gather themselves together, and lay them down
    in their dens.
104:23 Man goeth forth unto his work and to his labour until the evening.
104:24 O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all:
    the earth is full of thy riches.
104:25 So is this great and wide sea, wherein are things creeping
    innumerable, both small and great beasts.
104:26 There go the ships: there is that leviathan, whom thou hast made
    to play therein.
104:27 These wait all upon thee; that thou mayest give them their meat in
    due season.
104:28 That thou givest them they gather: thou openest thine hand, they
    are filled with good.
104:29 Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled: thou takest away their breath,
    they die, and return to their dust.
104:30 Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created: and thou renewest
    the face of the earth.
104:31 The glory of the LORD shall endure for ever: the LORD shall rejoice
    in his works.
104:32 He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth: he toucheth the hills, and
    they smoke.
104:33 I will sing unto the LORD as long as I live: I will sing praise to my
    God while I have my being.
104:34 My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD.
104:35 Let the sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be
    no more. Bless thou the LORD, O my soul. Praise ye the LORD.
105:1 O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds
    among the people.
105:2 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works.
105:3 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the
    LORD.
105:4 Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore.
105:5 Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the
    judgments of his mouth;
105:6 O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen.
105:7 He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth.
105:8 He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he
    commanded to a thousand generations.
105:9 Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;
105:10 And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an
    everlasting covenant:
105:11 Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your
    inheritance:
105:12 When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and
    strangers in it.
105:13 When they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to
    another people;
105:14 He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their
    sakes;
105:15 Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.
105:16 Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he brake the whole
    staff of bread.
105:17 He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant:
105:18 Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:
105:19 Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him.
105:20 The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and let
    him go free.
105:21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance:
105:22 To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom.
105:23 Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
105:24 And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than
    their enemies.
105:25 He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtly with his
    servants.
105:26 He sent Moses his servant; and Aaron whom he had chosen.
105:27 They showed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
105:28 He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his
    word.
105:29 He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.
105:30 Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their
    kings.
105:31 He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all
    their coasts.
105:32 He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.
105:33 He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and brake the trees of
    their coasts.
105:34 He spake, and the locusts came, and caterpillars, and that without
    number,
105:35 And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of
    their ground.
105:36 He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their
    strength.
105:37 He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not
    one feeble person among their tribes.
105:38 Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them.
105:39 He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night.
105:40 The people asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with
    the bread of heaven.
105:41 He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry
    places like a river.
105:42 For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant.
105:43 And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with
    gladness:
105:44 And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour
    of the people;
105:45 That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise ye
    the LORD.
106:1 Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for
    his mercy endureth for ever.
106:2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? who can show forth all
    his praise?
106:3 Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that doeth
    righteousness at all times.
106:4 Remember me, O LORD, with the favour that thou bearest unto thy
    people: O visit me with thy salvation;
106:5 That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the
    gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.
106:6 We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have
    done wickedly.
106:7 Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered not
    the multitude of thy mercies; but provoked him at the sea, even at
    the Red sea.
106:8 Nevertheless he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make his
    mighty power to be known.
106:9 He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them
    through the depths, as through the wilderness.
106:10 And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and
    redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
106:11 And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them left.
106:12 Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.
106:13 They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel:
106:14 But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the
    desert.
106:15 And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul.
106:16 They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron the saint of the LORD.
106:17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of
    Abiram.
106:18 And a fire was kindled in their company; the flame burned up the
    wicked.
106:19 They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped the molten image.
106:20 Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that
    eateth grass.
106:21 They forgat God their saviour, which had done great things in Egypt;
106:22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things by the Red
    sea.
106:23 Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses his
    chosen stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, lest he
    should destroy them.
106:24 Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word:
106:25 But murmured in their tents, and hearkened not unto the voice of
    the LORD.
106:26 Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in
    the wilderness:
106:27 To overthrow their seed also among the nations, and to scatter them
    in the lands.
106:28 They joined themselves also unto Baalpeor, and ate the sacrifices of
    the dead.
106:29 Thus they provoked him to anger with their inventions: and the
    plague brake in upon them.
106:30 Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and so the plague
    was stayed.
106:31 And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations
    for evermore.
106:32 They angered him also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill
    with Moses for their sakes:
106:33 Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with
    his lips.
106:34 They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the LORD commanded
    them:
106:35 But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.
106:36 And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.
106:37 Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,
106:38 And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their
    daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land
    was polluted with blood.
106:39 Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with
    their own inventions.
106:40 Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against his people,
    insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.
106:41 And he gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated
    them ruled over them.
106:42 Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into
    subjection under their hand.
106:43 Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked him with their
    counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.
106:44 Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry:
106:45 And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to
    the multitude of his mercies.
106:46 He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.
106:47 Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from among the heathen, to
    give thanks unto thy holy name, and to triumph in thy praise.
106:48 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting:
    and let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye the LORD.
107:1 O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth
    for ever.
107:2 Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the
    hand of the enemy;
107:3 And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west,
    from the north, and from the south.
107:4 They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city
    to dwell in.
107:5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
107:6 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered
    them out of their distresses.
107:7 And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city
    of habitation.
107:8 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his
    wonderful works to the children of men!
107:9 For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with
    goodness.
107:10 Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in
    affliction and iron;
107:11 Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the
    counsel of the most High:
107:12 Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down,
    and there was none to help.
107:13 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them
    out of their distresses.
107:14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake
    their bands in sunder.
107:15 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his
    wonderful works to the children of men!
107:16 For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in
    sunder.
107:17 Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities,
    are afflicted.
107:18 Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the
    gates of death.
107:19 Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saveth them
    out of their distresses.
107:20 He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their
    destructions.
107:21 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his
    wonderful works to the children of men!
107:22 And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare
    his works with rejoicing.
107:23 They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great
    waters;
107:24 These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.
107:25 For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the
    waves thereof.
107:26 They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their
    soul is melted because of trouble.
107:27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at
    their wit's end.
107:28 Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth them
    out of their distresses.
107:29 He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.
107:30 Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto
    their desired haven.
107:31 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his
    wonderful works to the children of men!
107:32 Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise
    him in the assembly of the elders.
107:33 He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry
    ground;
107:34 A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that
    dwell therein.
107:35 He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into
    watersprings.
107:36 And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city
    for habitation;
107:37 And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of
    increase.
107:38 He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and
    suffereth not their cattle to decrease.
107:39 Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression,
    affliction, and sorrow.
107:40 He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the
    wilderness, where there is no way.
107:41 Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him
    families like a flock.
107:42 The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall
    stop her mouth.
107:43 Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall
    understand the lovingkindness of the LORD.
108:1 A Song or Psalm of David. O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and
    give praise, even with my glory.
108:2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
108:3 I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises
    unto thee among the nations.
108:4 For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth
    unto the clouds.
108:5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the
    earth;
108:6 That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and
    answer me.
108:7 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem,
    and mete out the valley of Succoth.
108:8 Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength
    of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
108:9 Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over
    Philistia will I triumph.
108:10 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
108:11 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O
    God, go forth with our hosts?
108:12 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
108:13 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread
    down our enemies.
109:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Hold not thy peace, O God of
    my praise;
109:2 For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened
    against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
109:3 They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against
    me without a cause.
109:4 For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer.
109:5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
109:6 Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.
109:7 When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer
    become sin.
109:8 Let his days be few; and let another take his office.
109:9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
109:10 Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek
    their bread also out of their desolate places.
109:11 Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers
    spoil his labour.
109:12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any
    to favour his fatherless children.
109:13 Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let
    their name be blotted out.
109:14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; and let
    not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
109:15 Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the
    memory of them from the earth.
109:16 Because that he remembered not to show mercy, but persecuted the poor
    and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart.
109:17 As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in
    blessing, so let it be far from him.
109:18 As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let
    it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.
109:19 Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him, and for a
    girdle wherewith he is girded continually.
109:20 Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of
    them that speak evil against my soul.
109:21 But do thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name's sake: because thy
    mercy is good, deliver thou me.
109:22 For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.
109:23 I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down
    as the locust.
109:24 My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness.
109:25 I became also a reproach unto them: when they looked upon me they
    shaked their heads.
109:26 Help me, O LORD my God: O save me according to thy mercy:
109:27 That they may know that this is thy hand; that thou, LORD, hast
    done it.
109:28 Let them curse, but bless thou: when they arise, let them be ashamed;
    but let thy servant rejoice.
109:29 Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover
    themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle.
109:30 I will greatly praise the LORD with my mouth; yea, I will praise him
    among the multitude.
109:31 For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor, to save him from
    those that condemn his soul.
110:1 A Psalm of David. The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand,
    until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
110:2 The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in
    the midst of thine enemies.
110:3 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties
    of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.
110:4 The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever
    after the order of Melchizedek.
110:5 The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of
    his wrath.
110:6 He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the
    dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.
110:7 He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the
    head.
111:1 Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, in
    the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.
111:2 The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have
    pleasure therein.
111:3 His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth
    for ever.
111:4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is
    gracious and full of compassion.
111:5 He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of
    his covenant.
111:6 He hath showed his people the power of his works, that he may give
    them the heritage of the heathen.
111:7 The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments
    are sure.
111:8 They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and
    uprightness.
111:9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for
    ever: holy and reverend is his name.
111:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good
    understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise
    endureth for ever.
112:1 Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that
    delighteth greatly in his commandments.
112:2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright
    shall be blessed.
112:3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness
    endureth for ever.
112:4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious,
    and full of compassion, and righteous.
112:5 A good man showeth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with
    discretion.
112:6 Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in
    everlasting remembrance.
112:7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting
    in the LORD.
112:8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his
    desire upon his enemies.
112:9 He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness
    endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.
112:10 The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his
    teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
113:1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise, O ye servants of the LORD, praise the name
    of the LORD.
113:2 Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for evermore.
113:3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD's
    name is to be praised.
113:4 The LORD is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.
113:5 Who is like unto the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high,
113:6 Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and
    in the earth!
113:7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of
    the dunghill;
113:8 That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his
    people.
113:9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother
    of children. Praise ye the LORD.
114:1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of
    strange language;
114:2 Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
114:3 The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
114:4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
114:5 What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that
    thou wast driven back?
114:6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like
    lambs?
114:7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of
    the God of Jacob;
114:8 Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a
    fountain of waters.
115:1 Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for
    thy mercy, and for thy truth's sake.
115:2 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is now their God?
115:3 But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath
    pleased.
115:4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
115:5 They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:
115:6 They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:
115:7 They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not:
    neither speak they through their throat.
115:8 They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that
    trusteth in them.
115:9 O Israel, trust thou in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.
115:10 O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their
    shield.
115:11 Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he is their help and
    their shield.
115:12 The LORD hath been mindful of us: he will bless us; he will bless
    the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron.
115:13 He will bless them that fear the LORD, both small and great.
115:14 The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children.
115:15 Ye are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.
115:16 The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD's: but the earth hath
    he given to the children of men.
115:17 The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.
115:18 But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for evermore.
    Praise the LORD.
116:1 I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications.
116:2 Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon
    him as long as I live.
116:3 The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me
    : I found trouble and sorrow.
116:4 Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee,
    deliver my soul.
116:5 Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.
116:6 The LORD preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me.
116:7 Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully
    with thee.
116:8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and
    my feet from falling.
116:9 I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
116:10 I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted:
116:11 I said in my haste, All men are liars.
116:12 What shall I render unto the LORD for all his benefits toward me?
116:13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD.
116:14 I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people.
116:15 Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.
116:16 O LORD, truly I am thy servant; I am thy servant, and the son
    of thine handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds.
116:17 I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call
    upon the name of the LORD.
116:18 I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people,
116:19 In the courts of the LORD's house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem.
    Praise ye the LORD.
117:1 O Praise the LORD, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people.
117:2 For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of the
    LORD endureth for ever. Praise ye the LORD.
118:1 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: because his mercy
    endureth for ever.
118:2 Let Israel now say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
118:3 Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
118:4 Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
118:5 I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me
    in a large place.
118:6 The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?
118:7 The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see
    my desire upon them that hate me.
118:8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.
118:9 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes.
118:10 All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I
    destroy them.
118:11 They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the
    name of the LORD I will destroy them.
118:12 They compassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of
    thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
118:13 Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me.
118:14 The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.
118:15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the
    righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.
118:16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD
    doeth valiantly.
118:17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.
118:18 The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto
    death.
118:19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I
    will praise the LORD:
118:20 This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter.
118:21 I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my
    salvation.
118:22 The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of
    the corner.
118:23 This is the LORD'S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.
118:24 This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be
    glad in it.
118:25 Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now
    prosperity.
118:26 Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD: we have blessed
    you out of the house of the LORD.
118:27 God is the LORD, which hath showed us light: bind the sacrifice
    with cords, even unto the horns of the altar.
118:28 Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, I will
    exalt thee.
118:29 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth
    for ever.
119:1 ALEPH. Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of
    the LORD.
119:2 Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with
    the whole heart.
119:3 They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways.
119:4 Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently.
119:5 O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes!
119:6 Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all thy
    commandments.
119:7 I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall have
    learned thy righteous judgments.
119:8 I will keep thy statutes: O forsake me not utterly.
119:9 BETH. Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed
    thereto according to thy word.
119:10 With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy
    commandments.
119:11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
119:12 Blessed art thou, O LORD: teach me thy statutes.
119:13 With my lips have I declared all the judgments of thy mouth.
119:14 I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies, as much as in all
    riches.
119:15 I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.
119:16 I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.
119:17 GIMEL. Deal bountifully with thy servant, that I may live, and keep
    thy word.
119:18 Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.
119:19 I am a stranger in the earth: hide not thy commandments from me.
119:20 My soul breaketh for the longing that it hath unto thy judgments at
    all times.
119:21 Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed, which do err from thy
    commandments.
119:22 Remove from me reproach and contempt; for I have kept thy testimonies.
119:23 Princes also did sit and speak against me: but thy servant did
    meditate in thy statutes.
119:24 Thy testimonies also are my delight and my counsellors.
119:25 DALETH. My soul cleaveth unto the dust: quicken thou me according to
    thy word.
119:26 I have declared my ways, and thou heardest me: teach me thy statutes.
119:27 Make me to understand the way of thy precepts: so shall I talk of thy
    wondrous works.
119:28 My soul melteth for heaviness: strengthen thou me according unto thy
    word.
119:29 Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me thy law graciously.
119:30 I have chosen the way of truth: thy judgments have I laid before me.
119:31 I have stuck unto thy testimonies: O LORD, put me not to shame.
119:32 I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt enlarge my
    heart.
119:33 HE. Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it
    unto the end.
119:34 Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe
    it with my whole heart.
119:35 Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I
    delight.
119:36 Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.
119:37 Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity; and quicken thou me in
    thy way.
119:38 Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who is devoted to thy fear.
119:39 Turn away my reproach which I fear: for thy judgments are good.
119:40 Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy
    righteousness.
119:41 VAU. Let thy mercies come also unto me, O LORD, even thy salvation,
    according to thy word.
119:42 So shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me: for I
    trust in thy word.
119:43 And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have
    hoped in thy judgments.
119:44 So shall I keep thy law continually for ever and ever.
119:45 And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts.
119:46 I will speak of thy testimonies also before kings, and will not be
    ashamed.
119:47 And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved.
119:48 My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments, which I have loved;
    and I will meditate in thy statutes.
119:49 ZAIN. Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused
    me to hope.
119:50 This is my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me.
119:51 The proud have had me greatly in derision: yet have I not declined
    from thy law.
119:52 I remembered thy judgments of old, O LORD; and have comforted myself.
119:53 Horror hath taken hold upon me because of the wicked that forsake thy
    law.
119:54 Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.
119:55 I have remembered thy name, O LORD, in the night, and have kept thy
    law.
119:56 This I had, because I kept thy precepts.
119:57 CHETH. Thou art my portion, O LORD: I have said that I would keep
    thy words.
119:58 I entreated thy favour with my whole heart: be merciful unto me
    according to thy word.
119:59 I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto thy testimonies.
119:60 I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments.
119:61 The bands of the wicked have robbed me: but I have not forgotten
    thy law.
119:62 At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy
    righteous judgments.
119:63 I am a companion of all them that fear thee, and of them that
    keep thy precepts.
119:64 The earth, O LORD, is full of thy mercy: teach me thy statutes.
119:65 TETH. Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O LORD, according unto
    thy word.
119:66 Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy
    commandments.
119:67 Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word.
119:68 Thou art good, and doest good; teach me thy statutes.
119:69 The proud have forged a lie against me: but I will keep thy
    precepts with my whole heart.
119:70 Their heart is as fat as grease; but I delight in thy law.
119:71 It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn
    thy statutes.
119:72 The law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and
    silver.
119:73 JOD. Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding,
    that I may learn thy commandments.
119:74 They that fear thee will be glad when they see me; because I have
    hoped in thy word.
119:75 I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are right, and that thou in
    faithfulness hast afflicted me.
119:76 Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according
    to thy word unto thy servant.
119:77 Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law is
    my delight.
119:78 Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a
    cause: but I will meditate in thy precepts.
119:79 Let those that fear thee turn unto me, and those that have known thy
    testimonies.
119:80 Let my heart be sound in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed.
119:81 CAPH. My soul fainteth for thy salvation: but I hope in thy word.
119:82 Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?
119:83 For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; yet do I not forget thy
    statutes.
119:84 How many are the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute
    judgment on them that persecute me?
119:85 The proud have digged pits for me, which are not after thy law.
119:86 All thy commandments are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully;
    help thou me.
119:87 They had almost consumed me upon earth; but I forsook not thy precepts.
119:88 Quicken me after thy lovingkindness; so shall I keep the testimony of
    thy mouth.
119:89 LAMED. For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.
119:90 Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: thou hast established the
    earth, and it abideth.
119:91 They continue this day according to thine ordinances: for all are
    thy servants.
119:92 Unless thy law had been my delights, I should then have perished in
    mine affliction.
119:93 I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me.
119:94 I am thine, save me; for I have sought thy precepts.
119:95 The wicked have waited for me to destroy me: but I will consider
    thy testimonies.
119:96 I have seen an end of all perfection: but thy commandment is
    exceeding broad.
119:97 MEM. O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day.
119:98 Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies:
    for they are ever with me.
119:99 I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies
    are my meditation.
119:100 I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.
119:101 I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy
    word.
119:102 I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.
119:103 How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to
    my mouth!
119:104 Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every
    false way.
119:105 NUN. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
119:106 I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep thy
    righteous judgments.
119:107 I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O LORD, according unto thy word.
119:108 Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD,
    and teach me thy judgments.
119:109 My soul is continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy law.
119:110 The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet I erred not from thy
    precepts.
119:111 Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they are
    the rejoicing of my heart.
119:112 I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes alway, even unto
    the end.
119:113 SAMECH. I hate vain thoughts: but thy law do I love.
119:114 Thou art my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word.
119:115 Depart from me, ye evildoers: for I will keep the commandments of my
    God.
119:116 Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not
    be ashamed of my hope.
119:117 Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto
    thy statutes continually.
119:118 Thou hast trodden down all them that err from thy statutes: for
    their deceit is falsehood.
119:119 Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross:
    therefore I love thy testimonies.
119:120 My flesh trembleth for fear of thee; and I am afraid of thy judgments.
119:121 AIN. I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to mine
    oppressors.
119:122 Be surety for thy servant for good: let not the proud oppress me.
119:123 Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, and for the word of thy
    righteousness.
119:124 Deal with thy servant according unto thy mercy, and teach me thy
    statutes.
119:125 I am thy servant; give me understanding, that I may know thy
    testimonies.
119:126 It is time for thee, LORD, to work: for they have made void
    thy law.
119:127 Therefore I love thy commandments above gold; yea, above fine gold.
119:128 Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be
    right; and I hate every false way.
119:129 PE. Thy testimonies are wonderful: therefore doth my soul keep them.
119:130 The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto
    the simple.
119:131 I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy commandments.
119:132 Look thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as thou usest to do unto
    those that love thy name.
119:133 Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion
    over me.
119:134 Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep thy precepts.
119:135 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; and teach me thy statutes.
119:136 Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep not thy law.
119:137 TZADDI. Righteous art thou, O LORD, and upright are thy judgments.
119:138 Thy testimonies that thou hast commanded are righteous and very
    faithful.
119:139 My zeal hath consumed me, because mine enemies have forgotten thy
    words.
119:140 Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it.
119:141 I am small and despised: yet do not I forget thy precepts.
119:142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is
    the truth.
119:143 Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: yet thy commandments
    are my delights.
119:144 The righteousness of thy testimonies is everlasting: give me
    understanding, and I shall live.
119:145 KOPH. I cried with my whole heart; hear me, O LORD: I will keep
    thy statutes.
119:146 I cried unto thee; save me, and I shall keep thy testimonies.
119:147 I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy
    word.
119:148 Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy
    word.
119:149 Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: O LORD, quicken me
    according to thy judgment.
119:150 They draw nigh that follow after mischief: they are far from thy law.
119:151 Thou art near, O LORD; and all thy commandments are truth.
119:152 Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old that thou hast
    founded them for ever.
119:153 RESH. Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget
    thy law.
119:154 Plead my cause, and deliver me: quicken me according to thy word.
119:155 Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.
119:156 Great are thy tender mercies, O LORD: quicken me according to thy
    judgments.
119:157 Many are my persecutors and mine enemies; yet do I not decline
    from thy testimonies.
119:158 I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved; because they kept not
    thy word.
119:159 Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O LORD, according to
    thy lovingkindness.
119:160 Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy
    righteous judgments endureth for ever.
119:161 SCHIN. Princes have persecuted me without a cause: but my heart
    standeth in awe of thy word.
119:162 I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.
119:163 I hate and abhor lying: but thy law do I love.
119:164 Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteous judgments.
119:165 Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend
    them.
119:166 LORD, I have hoped for thy salvation, and done thy commandments.
119:167 My soul hath kept thy testimonies; and I love them exceedingly.
119:168 I have kept thy precepts and thy testimonies: for all my ways are
    before thee.
119:169 TAU. Let my cry come near before thee, O LORD: give me understanding
    according to thy word.
119:170 Let my supplication come before thee: deliver me according to thy
    word.
119:171 My lips shall utter praise, when thou hast taught me thy statutes.
119:172 My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are
    righteousness.
119:173 Let thine hand help me; for I have chosen thy precepts.
119:174 I have longed for thy salvation, O LORD; and thy law is my delight.
119:175 Let my soul live, and it shall praise thee; and let thy judgments
    help me.
119:176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not
    forget thy commandments.
120:1 A Song of degrees. In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me
    .
120:2 Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.
120:3 What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou
    false tongue?
120:4 Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.
120:5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of
    Kedar!
120:6 My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.
120:7 I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.
121:1 A Song of degrees. I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from
    whence cometh my help.
121:2 My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
121:3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not
    slumber.
121:4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
121:5 The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
121:6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
121:7 The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
121:8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time
    forth, and even for evermore.
122:1 A Song of degrees of David. I was glad when they said unto me, Let us
    go into the house of the LORD.
122:2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.
122:3 Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:
122:4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony
    of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.
122:5 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of
    David.
122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.
122:7 Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.
122:8 For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be
    within thee.
122:9 Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.
123:1 A Song of degrees. Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest
    in the heavens.
123:2 Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters,
    and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes
    wait upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.
123:3 Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly
    filled with contempt.
123:4 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at
    ease, and with the contempt of the proud.
124:1 A Song of degrees of David. If it had not been the LORD who was on
    our side, now may Israel say;
124:2 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up
    against us:
124:3 Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled
    against us:
124:4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:
124:5 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
124:6 Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.
124:7 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the
    snare is broken, and we are escaped.
124:8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
125:1 A Song of degrees. They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion,
    which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.
125:2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round
    about his people from henceforth even for ever.
125:3 For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous;
    lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.
125:4 Do good, O LORD, unto those that be good, and to them that are
    upright in their hearts.
125:5 As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead
    them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon
    Israel.
126:1 A Song of degrees. When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion,
    we were like them that dream.
126:2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing:
    then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for
    them.
126:3 The LORD hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.
126:4 Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.
126:5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
126:6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall
    doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
127:1 A Song of degrees for Solomon. Except the LORD build the house, they
    labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the
    watchman waketh but in vain.
127:2 It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the
    bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.
127:3 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the
    womb is his reward.
127:4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the
    youth.
127:5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not
    be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.
128:1 A Song of degrees. Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that
    walketh in his ways.
128:2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be,
    and it shall be well with thee.
128:3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house:
    thy children like olive plants round about thy table.
128:4 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.
128:5 The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of
    Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
128:6 Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children, and peace upon Israel.
129:1 A Song of degrees. Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth,
    may Israel now say:
129:2 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not
    prevailed against me.
129:3 The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.
129:4 The LORD is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
129:5 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.
129:6 Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore
    it groweth up:
129:7 Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves
    his bosom.
129:8 Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you:
    we bless you in the name of the LORD.
130:1 A Song of degrees. Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.
130:2 Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my
    supplications.
130:3 If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
130:4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
130:5 I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.
130:6 My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the
    morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.
130:7 Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and
    with him is plenteous redemption.
130:8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
131:1 A Song of degrees of David. LORD, my heart is not haughty, nor mine
    eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things
    too high for me.
131:2 Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of
    his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.
131:3 Let Israel hope in the LORD from henceforth and for ever.
132:1 A Song of degrees. LORD, remember David, and all his afflictions:
132:2 How he sware unto the LORD, and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;
132:3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into
    my bed;
132:4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,
132:5 Until I find out a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty
    God of Jacob.
132:6 Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.
132:7 We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.
132:8 Arise, O LORD, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.
132:9 Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints
    shout for joy.
132:10 For thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of thine anointed.
132:11 The LORD hath sworn in truth unto David; he will not turn from it;
    Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
132:12 If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall
    teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore.
132:13 For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.
132:14 This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
132:15 I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with
    bread.
132:16 I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall
    shout aloud for joy.
132:17 There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp
    for mine anointed.
132:18 His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his
    crown flourish.
133:1 A Song of degrees of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is
    for brethren to dwell together in unity!
133:2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon
    the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his
    garments;
133:3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the
    mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even
    life for evermore.
134:1 A Song of degrees. Behold, bless ye the LORD, all ye servants of the
    LORD, which by night stand in the house of the LORD.
134:2 Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the LORD.
134:3 The LORD that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.
135:1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise him, O ye
    servants of the LORD.
135:2 Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of
    our God,
135:3 Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises unto his name;
    for it is pleasant.
135:4 For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his
    peculiar treasure.
135:5 For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above
    all gods.
135:6 Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in
    the seas, and all deep places.
135:7 He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh
    lightnings for the rain; he bringeth the wind out of his treasuries.
135:8 Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.
135:9 Who sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon
    Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.
135:10 Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;
135:11 Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the
    kingdoms of Canaan:
135:12 And gave their land for an heritage, an heritage unto Israel his
    people.
135:13 Thy name, O LORD, endureth for ever; and thy memorial, O LORD,
    throughout all generations.
135:14 For the LORD will judge his people, and he will repent himself
    concerning his servants.
135:15 The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men's
    hands.
135:16 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;
135:17 They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in
    their mouths.
135:18 They that make them are like unto them: so is every one that
    trusteth in them.
135:19 Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron:
135:20 Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: ye that fear the LORD, bless the LORD.
135:21 Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise
    ye the LORD.
136:1 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth
    for ever.
136:2 O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endureth for ever.
136:3 O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endureth for ever.
136:4 To him who alone doeth great wonders: for his mercy endureth for ever.
136:5 To him that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy endureth for
    ever.
136:6 To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy
    endureth for ever.
136:7 To him that made great lights: for his mercy endureth for ever:
136:8 The sun to rule by day: for his mercy endureth for ever:
136:9 The moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy endureth for ever.
136:10 To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn: for his mercy endureth
    for ever:
136:11 And brought out Israel from among them: for his mercy endureth for
    ever:
136:12 With a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm: for his mercy
    endureth for ever.
136:13 To him which divided the Red sea into parts: for his mercy endureth
    for ever:
136:14 And made Israel to pass through the midst of it: for his mercy
    endureth for ever:
136:15 But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea: for his mercy
    endureth for ever.
136:16 To him which led his people through the wilderness: for his mercy
    endureth for ever.
136:17 To him which smote great kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:
136:18 And slew famous kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:
136:19 Sihon king of the Amorites: for his mercy endureth for ever:
136:20 And Og the king of Bashan: for his mercy endureth for ever:
136:21 And gave their land for an heritage: for his mercy endureth for ever:
136:22 Even an heritage unto Israel his servant: for his mercy endureth
    for ever.
136:23 Who remembered us in our low estate: for his mercy endureth for ever:
136:24 And hath redeemed us from our enemies: for his mercy endureth for
    ever.
136:25 Who giveth food to all flesh: for his mercy endureth for ever.
136:26 O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy endureth for
    ever.
137:1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we
    remembered Zion.
137:2 We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.
137:3 For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and
    they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of
    the songs of Zion.
137:4 How shall we sing the LORD's song in a strange land?
137:5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.
137:6 If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth;
    if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
137:7 Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who
    said, Raze it, raze it, even to the foundation thereof.
137:8 O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be,
    that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.
137:9 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against
    the stones.
138:1 A Psalm of David. I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the
    gods will I sing praise unto thee.
138:2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy
    lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above
    all thy name.
138:3 In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me
    with strength in my soul.
138:4 All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear
    the words of thy mouth.
138:5 Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory
    of the LORD.
138:6 Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the
    proud he knoweth afar off.
138:7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt
    stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy
    right hand shall save me.
138:8 The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD,
    endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.
139:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. O LORD, thou hast searched me,
    and known me.
139:2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my
    thought afar off.
139:3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with
    all my ways.
139:4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou
    knowest it altogether.
139:5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
139:6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot
    attain unto it.
139:7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy
    presence?
139:8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell,
    behold, thou art there.
139:9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost
    parts of the sea;
139:10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
139:11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be
    light about me.
139:12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the
    day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.
139:13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's
    womb.
139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made:
    marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
139:15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and
    curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
139:16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book
    all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned,
    when as yet there was none of them.
139:17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the
    sum of them!
139:18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I
    awake, I am still with thee.
139:19 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye
    bloody men.
139:20 For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy
    name in vain.
139:21 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with
    those that rise up against thee?
139:22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.
139:23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:
139:24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way
    everlasting.
140:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Deliver me, O LORD, from the
    evil man: preserve me from the violent man;
140:2 Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they
    gathered together for war.
140:3 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison is
    under their lips. Selah.
140:4 Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the
    violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.
140:5 The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net
    by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.
140:6 I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my
    supplications, O LORD.
140:7 O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my
    head in the day of battle.
140:8 Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked
    device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.
140:9 As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of
    their own lips cover them.
140:10 Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire;
    into deep pits, that they rise not up again.
140:11 Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt
    the violent man to overthrow him.
140:12 I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and
    the right of the poor.
140:13 Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright
    shall dwell in thy presence.
141:1 A Psalm of David. LORD, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear
    unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.
141:2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting
    up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
141:3 Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.
141:4 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practice wicked works
    with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.
141:5 Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him
    reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my
    head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.
141:6 When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my
    words; for they are sweet.
141:7 Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and
    cleaveth wood upon the earth.
141:8 But mine eyes are unto thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust;
    leave not my soul destitute.
141:9 Keep me from the snares which they have laid for me, and the gins of
    the workers of iniquity.
141:10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.
142:1 Maschil of David; A Prayer when he was in the cave. I cried unto the
    LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my
    supplication.
142:2 I poured out my complaint before him; I showed before him my trouble.
142:3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path.
    In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a snare for me.
142:4 I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that
    would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul.
142:5 I cried unto thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my refuge and my
    portion in the land of the living.
142:6 Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me from my
    persecutors; for they are stronger than I.
142:7 Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the righteous
    shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with me.
143:1 A Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications:
    in thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness.
143:2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall
    no man living be justified.
143:3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to
    the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have
    been long dead.
143:4 Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is
    desolate.
143:5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy works; I muse on the
    work of thy hands.
143:6 I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a
    thirsty land. Selah.
143:7 Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me,
    lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.
143:8 Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I
    trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my
    soul unto thee.
143:9 Deliver me, O LORD, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.
143:10 Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good;
    lead me into the land of uprightness.
143:11 Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name's sake: for thy righteousness' sake
    bring my soul out of trouble.
143:12 And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that
    afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.
144:1 A Psalm of David. Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth
    my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:
144:2 My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my
    shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.
144:3 LORD, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him! or the son
    of man, that thou makest account of him!
144:4 Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away.
144:5 Bow thy heavens, O LORD, and come down: touch the mountains, and they
    shall smoke.
144:6 Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out thine arrows, and
    destroy them.
144:7 Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters,
    from the hand of strange children;
144:8 Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of
    falsehood.
144:9 I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery and an
    instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee.
144:10 It is he that giveth salvation unto kings: who delivereth David his
    servant from the hurtful sword.
144:11 Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth
    speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood:
144:12 That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our
    daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a
    palace:
144:13 That our garners may be full, affording all manner of store: that
    our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets:
144:14 That our oxen may be strong to labour; that there be no
    breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streets.
144:15 Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea, happy is that
    people, whose God is the LORD.
145:1 David's Psalm of praise. I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I
    will bless thy name for ever and ever.
145:2 Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and
    ever.
145:3 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is
    unsearchable.
145:4 One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare
    thy mighty acts.
145:5 I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy
    wondrous works.
145:6 And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will
    declare thy greatness.
145:7 They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and
    shall sing of thy righteousness.
145:8 The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of
    great mercy.
145:9 The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his
    works.
145:10 All thy works shall praise thee, O LORD; and thy saints shall bless
    thee.
145:11 They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;
145:12 To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious
    majesty of his kingdom.
145:13 Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth
    throughout all generations.
145:14 The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be
    bowed down.
145:15 The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in
    due season.
145:16 Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living
    thing.
145:17 The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.
145:18 The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call
    upon him in truth.
145:19 He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear
    their cry, and will save them.
145:20 The LORD preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will
    he destroy.
145:21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD: and let all flesh bless
    his holy name for ever and ever.
146:1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.
146:2 While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God
    while I have any being.
146:3 Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is
     no help.
146:4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day
    his thoughts perish.
146:5 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is
    in the LORD his God:
146:6 Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is:
    which keepeth truth for ever:
146:7 Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the
    hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners:
146:8 The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind: the LORD raiseth them that
    are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous:
146:9 The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and
    widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.
146:10 The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all
    generations. Praise ye the LORD.
147:1 Praise ye the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for
    it is pleasant; and praise is comely.
147:2 The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts
    of Israel.
147:3 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
147:4 He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their
    names.
147:5 Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is
    infinite.
147:6 The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.
147:7 Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto
    our God:
147:8 Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth,
    who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.
147:9 He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.
