1:1 O the happiness of that one, who Hath not walked in the
 counsel of the wicked. And in the way of sinners hath not
 stood, And in the seat of scorners hath not sat;
1:2 But -- in the law of Jehovah [is] his delight, And in His
 law he doth meditate by day and by night:
1:3 And he hath been as a tree, Planted by rivulets of water,
 That giveth its fruit in its season, And its leaf doth not
 wither, And all that he doth he causeth to prosper.
1:4 Not so the wicked: But -- as chaff that wind driveth away!
1:5 Therefore the wicked rise not in judgment, Nor sinners in
 the company of the righteous,
1:6 For Jehovah is knowing the way of the righteous, And the way
 of the wicked is lost!
2:1 Why have nations tumultuously assembled? And do peoples
 meditate vanity?
2:2 Station themselves do kings of the earth, And princes have
 been united together, Against Jehovah, and against His Messiah:
2:3 `Let us draw off Their cords, And cast from us Their thick
 bands.'
2:4 He who is sitting in the heavens doth laugh, The Lord doth
 mock at them.
2:5 Then doth He speak unto them in His anger, And in His wrath
 He doth trouble them:
2:6 `And I -- I have anointed My King, Upon Zion -- My holy
 hill.'
2:7 I declare concerning a statute: Jehovah said unto me, `My
 Son Thou [art], I to-day have brought thee forth.
2:8 Ask of Me and I give nations -- thy inheritance, And thy
 possession -- the ends of earth.
2:9 Thou dost rule them with a sceptre of iron, As a vessel of a
 potter Thou dost crush them.'
2:10 And now, O kings, act wisely, Be instructed, O judges of
 earth,
2:11 Serve ye Jehovah with fear, And rejoice with trembling.
2:12 Kiss the Chosen One, lest He be angry, And ye lose the way,
 When His anger burneth but a little, O the happiness of all
 trusting in Him!
3:1 A Psalm of David, in his fleeing from the face of Absalom
 his son. Jehovah, how have my distresses multiplied! Many are
 rising up against me.
3:2 Many are saying of my soul, `There is no salvation for him
 in God.' Selah.
3:3 And Thou, O Jehovah, [art] a shield for me, My honour, and
 lifter up of my head.
3:4 My voice [is] unto Jehovah: I call: And He answereth me from
 his holy hill, Selah.
3:5 I -- I have lain down, and I sleep, I have waked, for
 Jehovah sustaineth me.
3:6 I am not afraid of myriads of people, That round about they
 have set against me.
3:7 Rise, O Jehovah! save me, my God. Because Thou hast smitten
 All mine enemies [on] the cheek. The teeth of the wicked Thou
 hast broken.
3:8 Of Jehovah [is] this salvation; On Thy people [is] Thy
 blessing! Selah.
4:1 To the Overseer with Stringed Instruments. -- A Psalm of
 David. In my calling answer Thou me, O God of my righteousness.
 In adversity Thou gavest enlargement to me; Favour me, and hear
 my prayer.
4:2 Sons of men! till when [is] my glory for shame? Ye love a vain
 thing, ye seek a lie. Selah.
4:3 And know ye that Jehovah Hath separated a saintly one to
 Himself. Jehovah heareth in my calling to Him.
4:4 `Tremble ye, and do not sin;' Say ye [thus] in your heart
 on your bed, And be ye silent. Selah.
4:5 Sacrifice ye sacrifices of righteousness, And trust ye unto
 Jehovah.
4:6 Many are saying, `Who doth show us good?' Lift on us the
 light of Thy face, O Jehovah,
4:7 Thou hast given joy in my heart, From the time their corn
 and their wine Have been multiplied.
4:8 In peace together I lie down and sleep, For Thou, O Jehovah,
 alone, In confidence dost cause me to dwell!
5:1 To the Overseer, `Concerning the Inheritances.' -- A Psalm
 of David. My sayings hear, O Jehovah, Consider my meditation.
5:2 Be attentive to the voice of my cry, My king and my God, For
 unto Thee I pray habitually.
5:3 Jehovah, [at] morning Thou hearest my voice, [At] morning I
 set in array for Thee, And I look out.
5:4 For not a God desiring wickedness [art] Thou, Evil
 inhabiteth Thee not.
5:5 The boastful station not themselves before Thine eyes: Thou
 hast hated all working iniquity.
5:6 Thou destroyest those speaking lies, A man of blood and
 deceit Jehovah doth abominate.
5:7 And I, in the abundance of Thy kindness, I enter Thy house,
 I bow myself toward Thy holy temple in Thy fear.
5:8 O Jehovah, lead me in Thy righteousness, Because of those
 observing me, Make straight before me Thy way,
5:9 For there is no stability in their mouth. Their heart [is]
 mischiefs, An open grave [is] their throat, Their tongue they
 make smooth.
5:10 Declare them guilty, O God, Let them fall from their own
 counsels, In the abundance of their transgressions Drive them
 away, Because they have rebelled against Thee.
5:11 And rejoice do all trusting in Thee, To the age they sing,
 and Thou coverest them over, And those loving Thy name exult in
 Thee.
5:12 For Thou blessest the righteous, O Jehovah, As a buckler
 with favour dost compass him!
6:1 To the Overseer with stringed instruments, on the octave. --
 A Psalm of David. O Jehovah, in Thine anger reprove me not, Nor
 in Thy fury chastise me.
6:2 Favour me, O Jehovah, for I [am] weak, Heal me, O Jehovah,
 For troubled have been my bones,
6:3 And my soul hath been troubled greatly, And Thou, O Jehovah,
 till when?
6:4 Turn back, O Jehovah, draw out my soul, Save me for Thy
 kindness' sake.
6:5 For there is not in death Thy memorial, In Sheol, who doth
 give thanks to Thee?
6:6 I have been weary with my sighing, I meditate through all
 the night [on] my bed, With my tear my couch I waste.
6:7 Old from provocation is mine eye, It is old because of all
 mine adversaries,
6:8 Turn from me all ye workers of iniquity, For Jehovah heard
 the voice of my weeping,
6:9 Jehovah hath heard my supplication, Jehovah my prayer
 receiveth.
6:10 Ashamed and troubled greatly are all mine enemies, They
 turn back -- ashamed [in] a moment!
7:1 `The Erring One,' by David, that he sung to Jehovah
 concerning the words of Cush a Benjamite. O Jehovah, my God, in
 Thee I have trusted, Save me from all my pursuers, and deliver
 me.
7:2 Lest he tear as a lion my soul, Rending, and there is no
 deliverer.
7:3 O Jehovah, my God, if I have done this, If there is iniquity
 in my hands,
7:4 If I have done my well-wisher evil, And draw mine adversary
 without cause,
7:5 An enemy pursueth my soul, and overtaketh, And treadeth down
 to the earth my life, And my honour placeth in the dust. Selah.
7:6 Rise, O Jehovah, in Thine anger, Be lifted up at the wrath
 of mine adversaries, And awake Thou for me: Judgment Thou hast
 commanded:
7:7 And a company of peoples compass Thee, And over it on high
 turn Thou back,
7:8 Jehovah doth judge the peoples; Judge me, O Jehovah,
 According to my righteousness, And according to mine integrity
 on me,
7:9 Let, I pray Thee be ended the evil of the wicked, And
 establish Thou the righteous, And a trier of hearts and reins
 is the righteous God.
7:10 My shield [is] on God, Saviour of the upright in heart!
7:11 God [is] a righteous judge, And He is not angry at all
 times.
7:12 If [one] turn not, His sword he sharpeneth, His bow he hath
 trodden -- He prepareth it,
7:13 Yea, for him He hath prepared Instruments of death, His
 arrows for burning pursuers He maketh.
7:14 Lo, he travaileth [with] iniquity, And he hath conceived
 perverseness, And hath brought forth falsehood.
7:15 A pit he hath prepared, and he diggeth it, And he falleth
 into a ditch he maketh.
7:16 Return doth his perverseness on his head, And on his crown
 his violence cometh down.
7:17 I thank Jehovah, According to His righteousness, And praise
 the name of Jehovah Most High!
8:1 To the Overseer, `On the Gittith.' A Psalm of David. Jehovah,
 our Lord, How honourable Thy name in all the earth! Who settest
 thine honour on the heavens.
8:2 From the mouths of infants and sucklings Thou hast founded
 strength, Because of Thine adversaries, To still an enemy and a
 self-avenger.
8:3 For I see Thy heavens, a work of Thy fingers, Moon and stars
 that Thou didst establish.
8:4 What [is] man that Thou rememberest him? The son of man that
 Thou inspectest him?
8:5 And causest him to lack a little of Godhead, And with honour
 and majesty compassest him.
8:6 Thou dost cause him to rule Over the works of Thy hands, All
 Thou hast placed under his feet.
8:7 Sheep and oxen, all of them, And also beasts of the field,
8:8 Bird of the heavens, and fish of the sea, Passing through
 the paths of the seas!
8:9 Jehovah, our Lord, How honourable Thy name in all the earth!
9:1 To the Overseer, `On the Death of Labben.' -- A Psalm of
 David. I confess, O Jehovah, with all my heart, I recount all
 Thy wonders,
9:2 I rejoice and exult in Thee, I praise Thy Name, O Most High.
9:3 In mine enemies turning backward, they stumble and perish
 from Thy face.
9:4 For Thou hast done my judgment and my right. Thou hast sat
 on a throne, A judge of righteousness.
9:5 Thou hast rebuked nations, Thou hast destroyed the wicked,
 Their name Thou hast blotted out to the age and for ever.
9:6 O thou Enemy, Finished have been destructions for ever, As
 to cities thou hast plucked up, Perished hath their memorial
 with them.
9:7 And Jehovah to the age abideth, He is preparing for judgment
 His throne.
9:8 And He judgeth the world in righteousness, He judgeth the
 peoples in uprightness.
9:9 And Jehovah is a tower for the bruised, A tower for times of
 adversity.
9:10 They trust in Thee who do know Thy name, For Thou hast not
 forsaken Those seeking Thee, O Jehovah.
9:11 Sing ye praise to Jehovah, inhabiting Zion, Declare ye
 among the peoples His acts,
9:12 For He who is seeking for blood Them hath remembered, He
 hath not forgotten the cry of the afflicted.
9:13 Favour me, O Jehovah, See mine affliction by those hating
 me, Thou who liftest me up from the gates of death,
9:14 So that I recount all Thy praise, In the gates of the
 daughter of Zion. I rejoice on Thy salvation.
9:15 Sunk have nations in a pit they made, In a net that they
 hid hath their foot been captured.
9:16 Jehovah hath been known, Judgment He hath done, By a work
 of his hands Hath the wicked been snared. Meditation. Selah.
9:17 The wicked do turn back to Sheol, All nations forgetting
 God.
9:18 For not for ever is the needy forgotten, The hope of the
 humble lost to the age.
9:19 Rise, O Jehovah, let not man be strong, Let nations be
 judged before Thy face.
9:20 Appoint, O Jehovah, a director to them, Let nations know
 they [are] men! Selah.
10:1 Why, Jehovah, dost Thou stand at a distance? Thou dost hide
 in times of adversity,
10:2 Through the pride of the wicked, Is the poor inflamed, They
 are caught in devices that they devised.
10:3 Because the wicked hath boasted Of the desire of his soul,
 And a dishonest gainer he hath blessed, He hath despised
 Jehovah.
10:4 The wicked according to the height of his face, inquireth
 not. `God is not!' [are] all his devices.
10:5 Pain do his ways at all times, On high [are] Thy judgments
 before him, All his adversaries -- he puffeth at them.
10:6 He hath said in his heart, `I am not moved,' To generation
 and generation not in evil.
10:7 Of oaths his mouth is full, And deceits, and fraud: Under
 his tongue [is] perverseness and iniquity,
10:8 He doth sit in an ambush of the villages, In secret places
 he doth slay the innocent. His eyes for the afflicted watch
 secretly,
10:9 He lieth in wait in a secret place, as a lion in a covert.
 He lieth in wait to catch the poor, He catcheth the poor,
 drawing him into his net.
10:10 He is bruised -- he boweth down, Fallen by his mighty ones
 hath the afflicted.
10:11 He said in his heart, `God hath forgotten, He hath hid His
 face, He hath never seen.'
10:12 Arise, O Jehovah! O God, lift up Thy hand! Forget not the
 humble.
10:13 Wherefore hath the wicked despised God? He hath said in
 his heart, `It is not required.'
10:14 Thou hast seen, For Thou perverseness and anger beholdest;
 By giving into Thy hand, On Thee doth the afflicted leave [it],
 Of the fatherless Thou hast been an helper.
10:15 Break the arm of the wicked and the evil, Seek out his
 wickedness, find none;
10:16 Jehovah [is] king to the age, and for ever, The nations
 have perished out of His land!
10:17 The desire of the humble Thou hast heard, O Jehovah. Thou
 preparest their heart; Thou causest Thine ear to attend,
10:18 To judge the fatherless and bruised: He addeth no more to
 oppress -- man of the earth!
11:1 To the Overseer. -- By David. In Jehovah I trusted, how say
 ye to my soul, `They moved [to] Thy mountain for the bird?
11:2 For lo, the wicked tread a bow, They have prepared their
 arrow on the string, To shoot in darkness at the upright in
 heart.
11:3 When the foundations are destroyed, The righteous -- what
 hath he done?
11:4 `Jehovah [is] in his holy temple: Jehovah -- in the heavens
 [is] His throne. His eyes see -- His eyelids try the sons of
 men.
11:5 Jehovah the righteous doth try. And the wicked and the
 lover of violence, Hath His soul hated,
11:6 He poureth on the wicked snares, fire, and brimstone, And a
 horrible wind [is] the portion of their cup.
11:7 For righteous [is] Jehovah, Righteousness He hath loved,
 The upright doth His countenance see!'
12:1 To the Overseer, on the octave. -- A Psalm of David. Save,
 Jehovah, for the saintly hath failed, For the stedfast have
 ceased From the sons of men:
12:2 Vanity they speak each with his neighbour, Lip of flattery!
 With heart and heart they speak.
12:3 Jehovah doth cut off all lips of flattery, A tongue
 speaking great things,
12:4 Who said, `By our tongue we do mightily: Our lips [are] our
 own; who [is] lord over us?'
12:5 Because of the spoiling of the poor, Because of the
 groaning of the needy, Now do I arise, saith Jehovah, I set in
 safety [him who] doth breathe for it.
12:6 Sayings of Jehovah [are] pure sayings; Silver tried in a
 furnace of earth refined sevenfold.
12:7 Thou, O Jehovah, dost preserve them, Thou keepest us from
 this generation to the age.
12:8 Around the wicked walk continually, According as vileness
 is exalted by sons of men!
13:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. Till when, O Jehovah,
 Dost Thou forget me? -- for ever? Till when dost Thou hide Thy
 face from me?
13:2 Till when do I set counsels in my soul? Sorrow inn my heart
 daily? Till when is mine enemy exalted over me?
13:3 Look attentively; Answer me, O Jehovah, my God, Enlighten
 mine eyes, lest I sleep in death,
13:4 Lest mine enemy say, `I overcame him,' Mine adversaries joy
 when I am moved.
13:5 And I, in Thy kindness I have trusted, Rejoice doth my
 heart in Thy salvation.
13:6 I do sing to Jehovah, For He hath conferred benefits upon
 me!
14:1 To the Overseer. -- By David. A fool hath said in his
 heart, `God is not;' They have done corruptly, They have done
 abominable actions, There is not a doer of good.
14:2 Jehovah from the heavens Hath looked on the sons of men, To
 see if there is a wise one -- seeking God.
14:3 The whole have turned aside, Together they have been
 filthy: There is not a doer of good, not even one.
14:4 Have all working iniquity not known? Those consuming my
 people have eaten bread, Jehovah they have not called.
14:5 There they have feared a fear, For God [is] in the
 generation of the righteous.
14:6 The counsel of the poor ye cause to stink, Because Jehovah
 [is] his refuge.
14:7 `Who doth give from Zion the salvation of Israel? When
 Jehovah doth turn back [To] a captivity of His people, Jacob
 doth rejoice -- Israel is glad!
15:1 A Psalm of David. Jehovah, who doth sojourn in Thy tent?
 Who doth dwell in Thy holy hill?
15:2 He who is walking uprightly, And working righteousness, And
 speaking truth in his heart.
15:3 He hath not slandered by his tongue, He hath not done to
 his friend evil; And reproach he hath not lifted up Against his
 neighbour.
15:4 Despised in his eyes [is] a rejected one, And those fearing
 Jehovah he doth honour. He hath sworn to suffer evil, and
 changeth not;
15:5 His silver he hath not given in usury, And a bribe against
 the innocent Hath not taken; Whoso is doing these is not moved
 to the age!
16:1 A Secret Treasure of David. Preserve me, O God, for I did
 trust in Thee.
16:2 Thou hast said to Jehovah, `My Lord Thou [art];' My good
 [is] not for thine own sake;
16:3 For the holy ones who [are] in the land, And the
 honourable, all my delight [is] in them.
16:4 Multiplied are their griefs, [Who] have hastened backward;
 I pour not out their libations of blood, Nor do I take up their
 names on my lips.
16:5 Jehovah [is] the portion of my share, and of my cup, Thou
 -- Thou dost uphold my lot.
16:6 Lines have fallen to me in pleasant places, Yea, a
 beauteous inheritance [is] for me.
16:7 I bless Jehovah who hath counselled me; Also [in] the
 nights my reins instruct me.
16:8 I did place Jehovah before me continually, Because -- at my
 right hand I am not moved.
16:9 Therefore hath my heart been glad, And my honour doth
 rejoice, Also my flesh dwelleth confidently:
16:10 For Thou dost not leave my soul to Sheol, Nor givest thy
 saintly one to see corruption.
16:11 Thou causest me to know the path of life; Fulness of joys
 [is] with Thy presence, Pleasant things by Thy right hand for
 ever!
17:1 A Prayer of David. Hear, O Jehovah, righteousness, attend
 my cry, Give ear [to] my prayer, without lips of deceit.
17:2 From before thee my judgment doth go out; Thine eyes do see
 uprightly.
17:3 Thou hast proved my heart, Thou hast inspected by night,
 Thou hast tried me, Thou findest nothing; My thoughts pass not
 over my mouth.
17:4 As to doings of man, Through a word of Thy lips I have
 observed The paths of a destroyer;
17:5 To uphold my goings in Thy paths, My steps have not
 slidden.
17:6 I -- I called Thee, for Thou dost answer me, O God, incline
 Thine ear to me, hear my speech.
17:7 Separate wonderfully Thy kindness, O Saviour of the
 confiding, By Thy right hand, from withstanders.
17:8 Keep me as the apple, the daughter of the eye; In shadow of
 Thy wings thou dost hide me.
17:9 From the face of the wicked who spoiled me. Mine enemies in
 soul go round against me.
17:10 Their fat they have closed up, Their mouths have spoken
 with pride:
17:11 `Our steps now have compassed [him];' Their eyes they set
 to turn aside in the land.
17:12 His likeness as a lion desirous to tear, As a young lion
 dwelling in secret places.
17:13 Arise, O Jehovah, go before his face, Cause him to bend.
 Deliver my soul from the wicked, Thy sword,
17:14 From men, Thy hand, O Jehovah, From men of the world,
 their portion [is] in life, And [with] Thy hidden things Thou
 fillest their belly, They are satisfied [with] sons; And have
 left their abundance to their sucklings.
17:15 I -- in righteousness, I see Thy face; I am satisfied, in
 awaking, [with] Thy form!
18:1 To the Overseer. -- By a servant of Jehovah, by David, who
 hath spoken to Jehovah the words of this song in the day
 Jehovah delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and
 from the hand of Saul, and he saith: -- I love Thee, O Jehovah,
 my strength.
18:2 Jehovah [is] my rock, and my bulwark, And my deliverer, My
 God [is] my rock, I trust in Him: My shield, and a horn of my
 salvation, My high tower.
18:3 The `Praised One' I call Jehovah, And from my enemies I am
 saved.
18:4 Compassed me have cords of death, And streams of the
 worthless make me afraid.
18:5 Cords of Sheol have surrounded me, Before me have been
 snares of death.
18:6 In mine adversity I call Jehovah, And unto my God I cry. He
 heareth from His temple my voice, And My cry before Him cometh
 into His ears.
18:7 And shake and tremble doth the earth, And foundations of
 hills are troubled, And they shake -- because He hath wrath.
18:8 Gone up hath smoke by His nostrils, And fire from His mouth
 consumeth, Coals have been kindled by it.
18:9 And He inclineth the heavens, and cometh down, And thick
 darkness [is] under His feet.
18:10 And He rideth on a cherub, and doth fly, And He flieth on
 wings of wind.
18:11 He maketh darkness His secret place, Round about Him His
 tabernacle, Darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.
18:12 From the brightness over-against Him His thick clouds have
 passed on, Hail and coals of fire.
18:13 And thunder in the heavens doth Jehovah, And the Most
 High giveth forth His voice, Hail and coals of fire.
18:14 And He sendeth His arrows and scattereth them, And much
 lightning, and crusheth them.
18:15 And seen are the streams of waters, And revealed are
 foundations of the earth. From Thy rebuke, O Jehovah, From the
 breath of the spirit of Thine anger.
18:16 He sendeth from above -- He taketh me, He draweth me out
 of many waters.
18:17 He delivereth me from my strong enemy, And from those
 hating me, For they have been stronger than I.
18:18 They go before me in a day of my calamity And Jehovah is
 for a support to me.
18:19 And He bringeth me forth to a large place, He draweth me
 out, because He delighted in me.
18:20 Jehovah doth recompense me According to my righteousness,
 According to the cleanness of my hands, He doth return to me.
18:21 For I have kept the ways of Jehovah, And have not done
 wickedly against my God.
18:22 For all His judgments [are] before me, And His statutes I
 turn not from me.
18:23 And I am perfect with him, And I keep myself from mine
 iniquity.
18:24 And Jehovah doth return to me, According to my
 righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands,
 Over-against his eyes.
18:25 With the kind Thou showest Thyself kind, With a perfect
 man showest Thyself perfect.
18:26 With the pure Thou showest Thyself pure, And with the
 perverse showest Thyself a wrestler,
18:27 For Thou a poor people savest, And the eyes of the high
 causest to fall.
18:28 For Thou -- Thou lightest my lamp, Jehovah my God
 enlighteneth my darkness.
18:29 For by Thee I run -- a troop! And by my God I leap a wall.
18:30 God! perfect [is] His way, The saying of Jehovah is tried,
 A shield [is] He to all those trusting in Him.
18:31 For who [is] God besides Jehovah? And who [is] a rock save
 our God?
18:32 God! who is girding me [with] strength, And He maketh
 perfect my way.
18:33 Making my feet like hinds, And on my high places causeth
 me to stand.
18:34 Teaching my hands for battle, And a bow of brass was
 brought down by my arms.
18:35 And Thou givest to me the shield of Thy salvation, And Thy
 right hand doth support me, And Thy lowliness maketh me great.
18:36 Thou enlargest my step under me, And mine ankles have not
 slidden.
18:37 I pursue mine enemies, and overtake them, And turn back
 not till they are consumed.
18:38 I smite them, and they are not able to rise, They fall
 under my feet,
18:39 And Thou girdest me [with] strength for battle, Causest my
 withstanders to bow under me.
18:40 As to mine enemies -- Thou hast given to me the neck, As
 to those hating me -- I cut them off.
18:41 They cry, and there is no saviour, On Jehovah, and He doth
 not answer them.
18:42 And I beat them as dust before wind, As mire of the
 streets I empty them out.
18:43 Thou dost deliver me From the strivings of the people,
 Thou placest me for a head of nations, A people I have not
 known do serve me.
18:44 At the hearing of the ear they hearken to me, Sons of a
 stranger feign obedience to me,
18:45 Sons of a stranger fade away, And are slain out of their
 close places.
18:46 Jehovah liveth -- and blessed [is] my rock, And exalted is
 the God of my salvation.
18:47 God -- who is giving vengeance to me, And He subdueth
 peoples under me,
18:48 My deliverer from mine enemies, Above my withstanders Thou
 raisest me, From a man of violence dost deliver me.
18:49 Therefore I confess Thee among nations, O Jehovah, And to
 Thy name I sing praise,
18:50 Magnifying the salvation of His king, And doing kindness
 to His anointed, To David, and to his seed -- unto the age!
19:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. The heavens [are]
 recounting the honour of God, And the work of His hands The
 expanse [is] declaring.
19:2 Day to day uttereth speech, And night to night sheweth
 knowledge.
19:3 There is no speech, and there are no words. Their voice
 hath not been heard.
19:4 Into all the earth hath their line gone forth, And to the
 end of the world their sayings, For the sun He placed a tent in
 them,
19:5 And he, as a bridegroom, goeth out from his covering, He
 rejoiceth as a mighty one To run the path.
19:6 From the end of the heavens [is] his going out, And his
 revolution [is] unto their ends, And nothing is hid from his
 heat.
19:7 The law of Jehovah [is] perfect, refreshing the soul, The
 testimonies of Jehovah [are] stedfast, Making wise the simple,
19:8 The precepts of Jehovah [are] upright, Rejoicing the heart,
 The command of Jehovah [is] pure, enlightening the eyes,
19:9 The fear of Jehovah [is] clean, standing to the age, The
 judgments of Jehovah [are] true, They have been righteous --
 together.
19:10 They are more desirable than gold, Yea, than much fine
 gold; and sweeter than honey, Even liquid honey of the comb.
19:11 Also -- Thy servant is warned by them, `In keeping them
 [is] a great reward.'
19:12 Errors! who doth understand? From hidden ones declare me
 innocent,
19:13 Also -- from presumptuous ones keep back Thy servant, Let
 them not rule over me, Then am I perfect, And declared innocent
 of much transgression,
19:14 Let the sayings of my mouth, And the meditation of my
 heart, Be for a pleasing thing before Thee, O Jehovah, my rock,
 and my redeemer!
20:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. Jehovah doth answer
 thee, In a day of adversity, The name of the God of Jacob doth
 set thee on high,
20:2 He doth send thy help from the sanctuary, And from Zion
 doth support thee,
20:3 He doth remember all thy presents, And thy burnt-offering
doth reduce to ashes. Selah.
20:4 He doth give to thee according to thy heart, And all thy
 counsel doth fulfil.
20:5 We sing of thy salvation, And in the name of our God set up
 a banner. Jehovah doth fulfil all thy requests.
20:6 Now I have known That Jehovah hath saved His anointed, He
 answereth him from His holy heavens, With the saving might of
 His right hand.
20:7 Some of chariots, and some of horses, And we of the name of
 Jehovah our God Make mention.
20:8 They -- they have bowed and have fallen, And we have risen
 and station ourselves upright.
20:9 O Jehovah, save the king, He doth answer us in the day we
 call!
21:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. Jehovah, in Thy
 strength is the king joyful, In Thy salvation how greatly he
 rejoiceth.
21:2 The desire of his heart Thou gavest to him, And the request
 of his lips Thou hast not withheld. Selah.
21:3 For Thou puttest before him blessings of goodness, Thou
 settest on his head a crown of fine gold.
21:4 Life he hath asked from Thee, Thou hast given to him --
 length of days, Age-during -- and for ever.
21:5 Great [is] his honour in Thy salvation, Honour and majesty
 Thou placest on him.
21:6 For Thou makest him blessings for ever, Thou dost cause him
 to rejoice with joy, By Thy countenance.
21:7 For the king is trusting in Jehovah, And in the kindness of
 the Most High He is not moved.
21:8 Thy hand cometh to all Thine enemies, Thy right hand doth
 find Thy haters.
21:9 Thou makest them as a furnace of fire, At the time of Thy
 presence. Jehovah in His anger doth swallow them, And fire doth
 devour them.
21:10 Their fruit from earth Thou destroyest, And their seed
 from the sons of men.
21:11 For they stretched out against Thee evil, They devised a
 wicked device, they prevail not,
21:12 For Thou makest them a butt, When Thy strings Thou
 preparest against their faces.
21:13 Be Thou exalted, O Jehovah in, Thy strength, We sing and
 we praise Thy might!
22:1 To the Overseer, on `The Hind of the Morning.' -- A Psalm
 of David. My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me? Far from
 my salvation, The words of my roaring?
22:2 My God, I call by day, and Thou answerest not, And by
 night, and there is no silence to me.
22:3 And Thou [art] holy, Sitting -- the Praise of Israel.
22:4 In Thee did our fathers trust -- they trusted, And Thou
 dost deliver them.
22:5 Unto Thee they cried, and were delivered, In Thee they
 trusted, and were not ashamed.
22:6 And I [am] a worm, and no man, A reproach of man, and
 despised of the people.
22:7 All beholding me do mock at me, They make free with the lip
 -- shake the head,
22:8 `Roll unto Jehovah, He doth deliver him, He doth deliver
 him, for he delighted in him.'
22:9 For thou [art] He bringing me forth from the womb, Causing
 me to trust, On the breasts of my mother.
22:10 On Thee I have been cast from the womb, From the belly of
 my mother Thou [art] my God.
22:11 Be not far from me, For adversity is near, for there is no
 helper.
22:12 Many bulls have surrounded me, Mighty ones of Bashan have
 compassed me,
22:13 They have opened against me their mouth, A lion tearing
 and roaring.
22:14 As waters I have been poured out, And separated themselves
 have all my bones, My heart hath been like wax, It is melted in
 the midst of my bowels.
22:15 Dried up as an earthen vessel is my power, And my tongue
 is cleaving to my jaws.
22:16 And to the dust of death thou appointest me, For
 surrounded me have dogs, A company of evil doers have compassed
 me, Piercing my hands and my feet.
22:17 I count all my bones -- they look expectingly, They look
 upon me,
22:18 They apportion my garments to themselves, And for my
 clothing they cause a lot to fall.
22:19 And Thou, O Jehovah, be not far off, O my strength, to
 help me haste.
22:20 Deliver from the sword my soul, From the paw of a dog mine
 only one.
22:21 Save me from the mouth of a lion: -- And -- from the horns
 of the high places Thou hast answered me!
22:22 I declare Thy name to my brethren, In the midst of the
 assembly I praise Thee.
22:23 Ye who fear Jehovah, praise ye Him, All the seed of Jacob,
 honour ye Him, And be afraid of Him, all ye seed of Israel.
22:24 For He hath not despised, nor abominated, The affliction
 of the afflicted, Nor hath He hidden His face from him, And in
 his crying unto Him He heareth.
22:25 Of Thee my praise [is] in the great assembly. My vows I
 complete before His fearers.
22:26 The humble do eat and are satisfied, Praise Jehovah do
 those seeking Him, Your heart doth live for ever.
22:27 Remember and return unto Jehovah, Do all ends of the
 earth, And before Thee bow themselves, Do all families of the
 nations,
22:28 For to Jehovah [is] the kingdom, And He is ruling among
 nations.
22:29 And the fat ones of earth have eaten, And they bow
 themselves, Before Him bow do all going down to dust, And he
 [who] hath not revived his soul.
22:30 A seed doth serve Him, It is declared of the Lord to the
 generation.
22:31 They come and declare His righteousness, To a people that
 is borne, that He hath made!
23:1 A Psalm of David. Jehovah [is] my shepherd, I do not lack,
23:2 In pastures of tender grass He causeth me to lie down, By
 quiet waters He doth lead me.
23:3 My soul He refresheth, He leadeth me in paths of
 righteousness, For His name's sake,
23:4 Also -- when I walk in a valley of death-shade, I fear no
 evil, for Thou [art] with me, Thy rod and Thy staff -- they
 comfort me.
23:5 Thou arrangest before me a table, Over-against my
 adversaries, Thou hast anointed with oil my head, My cup is
 full!
23:6 Only -- goodness and kindness pursue me, All the days of my
 life, And my dwelling [is] in the house of Jehovah, For a
 length of days!
24:1 A Psalm of David. To Jehovah [is] the earth and its
 fulness, The world and the inhabitants in it.
24:2 For He on the seas hath founded it, And on the floods He
 doth establish it.
24:3 Who goeth up into the hill of Jehovah? And who riseth up in
 His holy place?
24:4 The clean of hands, and pure of heart, Who hath not lifted
 up to vanity his soul, Nor hath sworn to deceit.
24:5 He beareth away a blessing from Jehovah, Righteousness from
 the God of his salvation.
24:6 This [is] a generation of those seeking Him. Seeking Thy
 face, O Jacob! Selah.
24:7 Lift up, O gates, your heads, And be lifted up, O doors
 age-during, And come in doth the king of glory!
24:8 Who [is] this -- `the king of glory?' Jehovah -- strong and
 mighty, Jehovah, the mighty in battle.
24:9 Lift up, O gates, your heads, And be lifted up, O doors
 age-during, And come in doth the king of glory!
24:10 Who [is] He -- this `king of glory?' Jehovah of hosts --
 He [is] the king of glory! Selah.
25:1 By David. Unto Thee, O Jehovah, my soul I lift up.
25:2 My God, in Thee I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed, Let
 not mine enemies exult over me.
25:3 Also let none waiting on Thee be ashamed, Let the
 treacherous dealers without cause be ashamed.
25:4 Thy ways, O Jehovah, cause me to know, Thy paths teach Thou
 me.
25:5 Cause me to tread in Thy truth, and teach me, For Thou
 [art] the God of my salvation, Near Thee I have waited all the
 day.
25:6 Remember Thy mercies, O Jehovah, And Thy kindnesses, for
 from the age [are] they.
25:7 Sins of my youth, and my transgressions, Do not Thou
 remember. According to Thy kindness be mindful of me, For Thy
 goodness' sake, O Jehovah.
25:8 Good and upright [is] Jehovah, Therefore He directeth
 sinners in the way.
25:9 He causeth the humble to tread in judgment, And teacheth
 the humble His way.
25:10 All the paths of Jehovah [are] kindness and truth, To
 those keeping His covenant, And His testimonies.
25:11 For Thy name's sake, O Jehovah, Thou hast pardoned mine
 iniquity, for it [is] great.
25:12 Who [is] this -- the man fearing Jehovah? He directeth him
 in the way He doth choose.
25:13 His soul in good doth remain, And his seed doth possess
 the land.
25:14 The secret of Jehovah [is] for those fearing Him, And His
 covenant -- to cause them to know.
25:15 Mine eyes [are] continually unto Jehovah, For He bringeth
 out from a net my feet.
25:16 Turn Thou unto me, and favour me, For lonely and afflicted
 [am] I.
25:17 The distresses of my heart have enlarged themselves, From
 my distresses bring me out.
25:18 See mine affliction and my misery, And bear with all my
 sins.
25:19 See my enemies, for they have been many, And with violent
 hatred they have hated me.
25:20 Keep my soul, and deliver me, Let me not be ashamed, for I
 trusted in Thee.
25:21 Integrity and uprightness do keep me, For I have waited
 [on] Thee.
25:22 Redeem Israel, O God, from all his distresses!
26:1 By David. Judge me, O Jehovah, for I in mine integrity have
 walked, And in Jehovah I have trusted, I slide not.
26:2 Try me, O Jehovah, and prove me, Purified [are] my reins
 and my heart.
26:3 For Thy kindness [is] before mine eyes, And I have walked
 habitually in Thy truth.
26:4 I have not sat with vain men, And with dissemblers I enter
 not.
26:5 I have hated the assembly of evil doers, And with the
 wicked I sit not.
26:6 I wash in innocency my hands, And I compass Thine altar, O
 Jehovah.
26:7 To sound with a voice of confession, And to recount all Thy
 wonders.
26:8 Jehovah, I have loved the habitation of Thy house, And the
 place of the tabernacle of Thine honour.
26:9 Do not gather with sinners my soul, And with men of blood
 my life,
26:10 In whose hand [is] a wicked device, And their right hand
 [is] full of bribes.
26:11 And I, in mine integrity I walk, Redeem me, and favour me.
26:12 My foot hath stood in uprightness, In assemblies I bless
 Jehovah!
27:1 By David. Jehovah [is] my light and my salvation, Whom do I
 fear? Jehovah [is] the strength of my life, Of whom am I
 afraid?
27:2 When evil doers come near to me to eat my flesh, My
 adversaries and mine enemies to me, They have stumbled and
 fallen.
27:3 Though a host doth encamp against me, My heart doth not
 fear, Though war riseth up against me, In this I [am]
 confident.
27:4 One [thing] I asked of Jehovah -- it I seek. My dwelling in
 the house of Jehovah, All the days of my life, To look on the
 pleasantness of Jehovah, And to inquire in His temple.
27:5 For He hideth me in a tabernacle in the day of evil, He
 hideth me in a secret place of His tent, On a rock he raiseth
 me up.
27:6 And now, lifted up is my head, Above my enemies -- my
 surrounders, And I sacrifice in His tent sacrifices of
 shouting, I sing, yea, I sing praise to Jehovah.
27:7 Hear, O Jehovah, my voice -- I call, And favour me, and
 answer me.
27:8 To Thee said my heart `They sought my face, Thy face, O
 Jehovah, I seek.'
27:9 Hide not Thy face from me, Turn not aside in anger Thy
 servant, My help Thou hast been. Leave me not, nor forsake me,
 O God of my salvation.
27:10 When my father and my mother Have forsaken me, then doth
 Jehovah gather me.
27:11 Shew me, O Jehovah, Thy way, And lead me in a path of
 uprightness, For the sake of my beholders.
27:12 Give me not to the will of my adversaries, For risen
 against me have false witnesses, And they breathe out violence
 to me.
27:13 I had not believed to look on the goodness of Jehovah In
 the land of the living!
27:14 Look unto Jehovah -- be strong, And He doth strengthen thy
 heart, Yea, look unto Jehovah!
28:1 By David. Unto Thee, O Jehovah, I call, My rock, be not
 silent to me! Lest Thou be silent to me, And I have been
 compared With those going down to the pit.
28:2 Hear the voice of my supplications, In my crying unto Thee,
 In my lifting up my hands toward thy holy oracle.
28:3 Draw me not with the wicked, And with workers of iniquity,
 Speaking peace with their neighbours, And evil in their heart.
28:4 Give to them according to their acting, And according to
 the evil of their doings. According to the work of their hands
 give to them. Return their deed to them.
28:5 For they attend not to the doing of Jehovah, And unto the
 work of His hands. He throweth them down, And doth not build
 them up.
28:6 Blessed [is] Jehovah, For He hath heard the voice of my
 supplications.
28:7 Jehovah [is] my strength, and my shield, In Him my heart
 trusted, and I have been helped. And my heart exulteth, And
 with my song I thank Him.
28:8 Jehovah [is] strength to him, Yea, the strength of the
 salvation of His anointed [is] He.
28:9 Save Thy people, and bless Thine inheritance, And feed
 them, and carry them to the age!
29:1 A Psalm of David. Ascribe to Jehovah, ye sons of the
 mighty, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength.
29:2 Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Bow yourselves
 to Jehovah, In the beauty of holiness.
29:3 The voice of Jehovah [is] on the waters, The God of glory
 hath thundered, Jehovah [is] on many waters.
29:4 The voice of Jehovah [is] with power, The voice of Jehovah
 [is] with majesty,
29:5 The voice of Jehovah [is] shivering cedars, Yea, Jehovah
 shivers the cedars of Lebanon.
29:6 And He causeth them to skip as a calf, Lebanon and Sirion
 as a son of Reems,
29:7 The voice of Jehovah is hewing fiery flames,
29:8 The voice of Jehovah paineth a wilderness, Jehovah paineth
 the wilderness of Kadesh.
29:9 The voice of Jehovah paineth the oaks, And maketh bare the
 forests, And in His temple every one saith, `Glory.'
29:10 Jehovah on the deluge hath sat, And Jehovah sitteth king
 -- to the age,
29:11 Jehovah strength to his people giveth, Jehovah blesseth
 His people with peace!
30:1 A Psalm. -- A song of the dedication of the house of David.
 I exalt Thee, O Jehovah, For Thou hast drawn me up, and hast
 not let mine enemies rejoice over me.
30:2 Jehovah my God, I have cried to Thee, And Thou dost heal
 me.
30:3 Jehovah, Thou hast brought up from Sheol my soul, Thou hast
 kept me alive, From going down [to] the pit.
30:4 Sing praise to Jehovah, ye His saints, And give thanks at
 the remembrance of His holiness,
30:5 For -- a moment [is] in His anger, Life [is] in His
 good-will, At even remaineth weeping, and at morn singing.
30:6 And I -- I have said in mine ease, `I am not moved -- to
 the age.
30:7 O Jehovah, in Thy good pleasure, Thou hast caused strength
 to remain for my mountain,' Thou hast hidden Thy face -- I have
 been troubled.
30:8 Unto Thee, O Jehovah, I call, And unto Jehovah I make
 supplication.
30:9 `What gain [is] in my blood? In my going down unto
 corruption? Doth dust thank Thee? doth it declare Thy truth?
30:10 Hear, O Jehovah, and favour me, O Jehovah, be a helper to
 me.'
30:11 Thou hast turned my mourning to dancing for me, Thou hast
 loosed my sackcloth, And girdest me [with] joy.
30:12 So that honour doth praise Thee, and is not silent, O
 Jehovah, my God, to the age I thank Thee!
31:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. In Thee, O Jehovah, I
 have trusted, Let me not be ashamed to the age, In Thy
 righteousness deliver me.
31:2 Incline unto me Thine ear hastily, deliver me, Be to me for
 a strong rock, For a house of bulwarks to save me.
31:3 For my rock and my bulwark [art] Thou, For Thy name's sake
 lead me and tend me.
31:4 Bring me out from the net that they hid for me, For Thou
 [art] my strength.
31:5 Into Thy hand I commit my spirit, Thou hast redeemed me,
 Jehovah God of truth.
31:6 I have hated the observers of lying vanities, And I toward
 Jehovah have been confident.
31:7 I rejoice, and am glad in Thy kindness, In that Thou hast
 seen mine affliction, Thou hast known in adversities my soul.
31:8 And Thou hast not shut me up, Into the hand of an enemy,
 Thou hast caused my feet to stand in a broad place.
31:9 Favour me, O Jehovah, for distress [is] to me, Mine eye, my
 soul, and my body Have become old by provocation.
31:10 For my life hath been consumed in sorrow And my years in
 sighing. Feeble because of mine iniquity hath been my strength,
 And my bones have become old.
31:11 Among all mine adversaries I have been a reproach, And to
 my neighbours exceedingly, And a fear to mine acquaintances,
 Those seeing me without -- fled from me.
31:12 I have been forgotten as dead out of mind, I have been as
 a perishing vessel.
31:13 For I have heard an evil account of many, Fear [is] round
 about. In their being united against me, To take my life they
 have devised,
31:14 And I on Thee -- I have trusted, O Jehovah, I have said,
 `Thou [art] my God.'
31:15 In Thy hand [are] my times, Deliver me from the hand of my
 enemies, And from my pursuers.
31:16 Cause Thy face to shine on Thy servant, Save me in Thy
 kindness.
31:17 O Jehovah, let me not be ashamed, For I have called Thee,
 let the wicked be ashamed, Let them become silent to Sheol.
31:18 Let lips of falsehood become dumb, That are speaking
 against the righteous, Ancient sayings, in pride and contempt.
31:19 How abundant is Thy goodness, That Thou hast laid up for
 those fearing Thee,
31:20 Thou hast wrought for those trusting in Thee, Before sons
 of men. Thou hidest them in the secret place of Thy presence,
 From artifices of man, Thou concealest them in a tabernacle,
 From the strife of tongues.
31:21 Blessed [is] Jehovah, For He hath made marvellous His
 kindness To me in a city of bulwarks.
31:22 And I -- I have said in my haste, `I have been cut off
 from before Thine eyes,' But Thou hast heard the voice of my
 supplications, In my crying unto Thee.
31:23 Love Jehovah, all ye His saints, Jehovah is keeping the
 faithful, And recompensing abundantly a proud doer.
31:24 Be strong, and He strengtheneth your heart, All ye who are
 waiting for Jehovah!
32:1 By David. -- An Instruction. O the happiness of him whose
 transgression [is] forgiven, Whose sin is covered.
32:2 O the happiness of a man, To whom Jehovah imputeth not
 iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no deceit.
32:3 When I have kept silence, become old have my bones, Through
 my roaring all the day.
32:4 When by day and by night Thy hand is heavy upon me, My
 moisture hath been changed Into the droughts of summer. Selah.
32:5 My sin I cause Thee to know, And mine iniquity I have not
 covered. I have said, `I confess concerning My transgressions
 to Jehovah,' And Thou -- Thou hast taken away, The iniquity of
 my sin. Selah.
32:6 For this doth every saintly one pray to Thee, As the time
 to find. Surely at an overflowing of many waters, Unto him they
 come not.
32:7 Thou [art] a hiding-place for me, From distress Thou dost
 keep me, [With] songs of deliverance dost compass me. Selah.
32:8 I cause thee to act wisely, And direct thee in the way that
 thou goest, I cause mine eye to take counsel concerning thee.
32:9 Be ye not as a horse -- as a mule, Without understanding,
 With bridle and bit, its ornaments, to curb, Not to come near
 unto thee.
32:10 Many [are] the pains of the wicked; As to him who is
 trusting in Jehovah, Kindness doth compass him.
32:11 Be glad in Jehovah, and rejoice, ye righteous, And sing,
 all ye upright of heart!
33:1 Sing, ye righteous, in Jehovah, For upright ones praise
 [is] comely.
33:2 Give ye thanks to Jehovah with a harp, With psaltery of ten
 strings sing praise to Him,
33:3 Sing ye to Him a new song, Play skilfully with shouting.
33:4 For upright [is] the word of Jehovah, And all His work [is]
 in faithfulness.
33:5 Loving righteousness and judgment, Of the kindness of
 Jehovah is the earth full.
33:6 By the word of Jehovah The heavens have been made, And by
 the breath of His mouth all their host.
33:7 Gathering as a heap the waters of the sea, Putting in
 treasuries the depths.
33:8 Afraid of Jehovah are all the earth, Of Him are all the
 inhabitants of the world afraid.
33:9 For He hath said, and it is, He hath commanded, and it
 standeth.
33:10 Jehovah made void the counsel of nations, He disallowed
 the thoughts of the peoples.
33:11 The counsel of Jehovah to the age standeth, The thoughts
 of His heart to all generations.
33:12 O the happiness of the nation whose God [is] Jehovah, Of
 the people He did choose, For an inheritance to Him.
33:13 From the heavens hath Jehovah looked, He hath seen all the
 sons of men.
33:14 From the fixed place of His dwelling, He looked unto all
 inhabitants of the earth;
33:15 Who is forming their hearts together, Who is attending
 unto all their works.
33:16 The king is not saved by the multitude of a force. A
 mighty man is not delivered, By abundance of power.
33:17 A false thing [is] the horse for safety, And by the
 abundance of his strength He doth not deliver.
33:18 Lo, the eye of Jehovah [is] to those fearing Him, To those
 waiting for His kindness,
33:19 To deliver from death their soul, And to keep them alive
 in famine.
33:20 Our soul hath waited for Jehovah, Our help and our shield
 [is] He,
33:21 For in Him doth our heart rejoice, For in His holy name we
 have trusted.
33:22 Let Thy kindness, O Jehovah, be upon us, As we have waited
 for Thee!
34:1 By David, in his changing his behaviour before Abimelech,
 and he driveth him away, and he goeth. I do bless Jehovah at
 all times, Continually His praise [is] in my mouth.
34:2 In Jehovah doth my soul boast herself, Hear do the humble
 and rejoice.
34:3 Ascribe ye greatness to Jehovah with me, And we exalt His
 name together.
34:4 I sought Jehovah, and He answered me, And from all my fears
 did deliver me.
34:5 They looked expectingly unto Him, And they became bright,
 And their faces are not ashamed.
34:6 This poor [one] called, and Jehovah heard, And from all his
 distresses saved him.
34:7 A messenger of Jehovah is encamping, Round about those who
 fear Him, And He armeth them.
34:8 Taste ye and see that Jehovah [is] good, O the happiness of
 the man who trusteth in Him.
34:9 Fear Jehovah, ye His holy ones, For there is no lack to
 those fearing Him.
34:10 Young lions have lacked and been hungry, And those seeking
 Jehovah lack not any good,
34:11 Come ye, children, hearken to me, The fear of Jehovah I do
 teach you.
34:12 Who [is] the man that is desiring life? Loving days to see
 good?
34:13 Keep thy tongue from evil, And thy lips from speaking
 deceit.
34:14 Turn aside from evil and do good, Seek peace and pursue
 it.
34:15 The eyes of Jehovah [are] unto the righteous, And His ears
 unto their cry.
34:16 (The face of Jehovah [is] on doers of evil, To cut off
 from earth their memorial.)
34:17 They cried, and Jehovah heard, And from all their
 distresses delivered them.
34:18 Near [is] Jehovah to the broken of heart, And the bruised
 of spirit He saveth.
34:19 Many [are] the evils of the righteous, Out of them all
 doth Jehovah deliver him.
34:20 He is keeping all his bones, One of them hath not been
 broken.
34:21 Evil doth put to death the wicked, And those hating the
 righteous are desolate.
34:22 Jehovah redeemeth the soul of His servants, And none
 trusting in Him are desolate!
35:1 By David. Strive, Jehovah, with my strivers, fight with my
 fighters,
35:2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and rise for my help,
35:3 And draw out spear and lance, To meet my pursuers. Say to
 my soul, `Thy salvation I [am].'
35:4 They are ashamed and blush, those seeking my soul, Turned
 backward and confounded, Those devising my evil.
35:5 They are as chaff before wind, And a messenger of Jehovah
 driving away.
35:6 Their way is darkness and slipperiness, And a messenger of
 Jehovah their pursuer.
35:7 For without cause they hid for me their netpit, Without
 cause they digged for my soul.
35:8 Meet him doth desolation -- he knoweth not, And his net
 that he hid catcheth him, For desolation he falleth into it.
35:9 And my soul is joyful in Jehovah, It rejoiceth in His
 salvation.
35:10 All my bones say, `Jehovah, who is like Thee, Delivering
 the poor from the stronger than he, And the poor and needy from
 his plunderer.'
35:11 Violent witnesses rise up, That which I have not known
 they ask me.
35:12 They pay me evil for good, bereaving my soul,
35:13 And I -- in their sickness my clothing [is] sackcloth, I
 have humbled with fastings my soul, And my prayer unto my bosom
 returneth.
35:14 As [if] a friend, as [if] my brother, I walked habitually,
 As a mourner for a mother, Mourning I have bowed down.
35:15 And -- in my halting they have rejoiced, And have been
 gathered together, Gathered against me were the smiters, And I
 have not known, They have rent, and they have not ceased;
35:16 With profane ones, mockers in feasts, Gnashing against me
 their teeth.
35:17 Lord, how long dost thou behold? Keep back my soul from
 their desolations, From young lions my only one.
35:18 I thank Thee in a great assembly, Among a mighty people I
 praise Thee.
35:19 Mine enemies rejoice not over me [with] falsehood, Those
 hating me without cause wink the eye.
35:20 For they speak not peace, And against the quiet of the
 land, Deceitful words they devise,
35:21 And they enlarge against me their mouth, They said, `Aha,
 aha, our eye hath seen.'
35:22 Thou hast seen, O Jehovah, Be not silent, O Lord -- be not
 far from me,
35:23 Stir up, and wake to my judgment, My God, and my Lord, to
 my plea.
35:24 Judge me according to Thy righteousness, O Jehovah my God,
 And they do not rejoice over me.
35:25 They do not say in their heart, `Aha, our desire.' They do
 not say, `We swallowed him up.'
35:26 They are ashamed and confounded together, Who are
 rejoicing at my evil. They put on shame and confusion, Who are
 magnifying themselves against me.
35:27 They sing and rejoice, who are desiring my righteousness,
 And they say continually, `Jehovah is magnified, Who is
 desiring the peace of His servant.'
35:28 And my tongue uttereth Thy righteousness, All the day Thy
 praise!
36:1 To the Overseer. -- By a servant of Jehovah, by David. The
 transgression of the wicked Is affirming within my heart, `Fear
 of God is not before his eyes,
36:2 For he made [it] smooth to himself in his eyes, To find his
 iniquity to be hated.
36:3 The words of his mouth [are] iniquity and deceit, He ceased
 to act prudently -- to do good.
36:4 Iniquity he deviseth on his bed, He stationeth himself on a
 way not good, Evil he doth not refuse.'
36:5 O Jehovah, in the heavens [is] Thy kindness, Thy
 faithfulness [is] unto the clouds.
36:6 Thy righteousness [is] as mountains of God, Thy judgments
 [are] a great deep. Man and beast Thou savest, O Jehovah.
36:7 How precious [is] Thy kindness, O God, And the sons of men
 In the shadow of Thy wings do trust.
36:8 They are filled from the fatness of Thy house, And the
 stream of Thy delights Thou dost cause them to drink.
36:9 For with Thee [is] a fountain of life, In Thy light we see
 light.
36:10 Draw out Thy kindness to those knowing Thee, And Thy
 righteousness to the upright of heart.
36:11 Let not a foot of pride meet me, And a hand of the wicked
 let not move me.
36:12 There have workers of iniquity fallen, They have been
 overthrown, And have not been able to arise!
37:1 By David. Do not fret because of evil doers, Be not envious
 against doers of iniquity,
37:2 For as grass speedily they are cut off, And as the
 greenness of the tender grass do fade.
37:3 Trust in Jehovah, and do good, Dwell [in] the land, and
 enjoy faithfulness,
37:4 And delight thyself on Jehovah, And He giveth to thee the
 petitions of thy heart.
37:5 Roll on Jehovah thy way, And trust upon Him, and He
 worketh,
37:6 And hath brought out as light thy righteousness, And thy
 judgment as noon-day.
37:7 Be silent for Jehovah, and stay thyself for Him, Do not
 fret because of him Who is making prosperous his way, Because
 of a man doing wicked devices.
37:8 Desist from anger, and forsake fury, Fret not thyself only
 to do evil.
37:9 For evil doers are cut off, As to those waiting on Jehovah,
 they possess the land.
37:10 And yet a little, and the wicked is not, And thou hast
 considered his place, and it is not.
37:11 And the humble do possess the land, And they have
 delighted themselves In the abundance of peace.
37:12 The wicked is devising against the righteous, And gnashing
 against him his teeth.
37:13 The Lord doth laugh at him, For He hath seen that his day
 cometh.
37:14 A sword have the wicked opened, And they have trodden
 their bow, To cause to fall the poor and needy, To slaughter
 the upright of the way.
37:15 Their sword doth enter into their own heart, And their
 bows are shivered.
37:16 Better [is] the little of the righteous, Than the store of
 many wicked.
37:17 For the arms of the wicked are shivered, And Jehovah is
 sustaining the righteous.
37:18 Jehovah knoweth the days of the perfect, And their
 inheritance is -- to the age.
37:19 They are not ashamed in a time of evil, And in days of
 famine they are satisfied.
37:20 But the wicked perish, and the enemies of Jehovah, As the
 preciousness of lambs, Have been consumed, In smoke they have
 been consumed.
37:21 The wicked is borrowing and repayeth not, And the
 righteous is gracious and giving.
37:22 For His blessed ones do possess the land, And His reviled
 ones are cut off.
37:23 From Jehovah [are] the steps of a man, They have been
 prepared, And his way he desireth.
37:24 When he falleth, he is not cast down, For Jehovah is
 sustaining his hand.
37:25 Young I have been, I have also become old, And I have not
 seen the righteous forsaken, And his seed seeking bread.
37:26 All the day he is gracious and lending, And his seed [is]
 for a blessing.
37:27 Turn aside from evil, and do good, and dwell to the age.
37:28 For Jehovah is loving judgment, And He doth not forsake
 His saintly ones, To the age they have been kept, And the seed
 of the wicked is cut off.
37:29 The righteous possess the land, And they dwell for ever on
 it.
37:30 The mouth of the righteous uttereth wisdom, And his tongue
 speaketh judgment.
37:31 The law of his God [is] his heart, His steps do not slide.
37:32 The wicked is watching for the righteous, And is seeking
 to put him to death.
37:33 Jehovah doth not leave him in his hand, Nor condemn him in
 his being judged.
37:34 Look unto Jehovah, and keep His way, And He doth exalt
 thee to possess the land, In the wicked being cut off -- thou
 seest!
37:35 I have seen the wicked terrible, And spreading as a green
 native plant,
37:36 And he passeth away, and lo, he is not, And I seek him,
 and he is not found!
37:37 Observe the perfect, and see the upright, For the latter
 end of each [is] peace.
37:38 And transgressors were destroyed together, The latter end
 of the wicked was cut off.
37:39 And the salvation of the righteous [is] from Jehovah,
 Their strong place in a time of adversity.
37:40 And Jehovah doth help them and deliver them, He delivereth
 them from the wicked, And saveth them, Because they trusted in
 Him!
38:1 A Psalm of David, `To cause to remember.' Jehovah, in Thy
 wrath reprove me not, Nor in Thy fury chastise me.
38:2 For Thine arrows have come down on me, And Thou lettest
 down upon me Thy hand.
38:3 Soundness is not in my flesh, Because of Thine indignation,
 Peace is not in my bones because of my sin.
38:4 For mine iniquities have passed over my head, As a heavy
 burden -- too heavy for me.
38:5 Stunk -- become corrupt have my wounds, Because of my
 folly.
38:6 I have been bent down, I have been bowed down -- unto
 excess, All the day I have gone mourning.
38:7 For my flanks have been full of drought, And soundness is
 not in my flesh.
38:8 I have been feeble and smitten -- unto excess, I have
 roared from disquietude of heart.
38:9 Lord, before Thee [is] all my desire, And my sighing from
 Thee hath not been hid.
38:10 My heart [is] panting, my power hath forsaken me, And the
 light of mine eyes, Even they are not with me.
38:11 My lovers and my friends over-against my plague stand. And
 my neighbours afar off have stood.
38:12 And those seeking my soul lay a snare, And those seeking
 my evil Have spoken mischievous things, And they do deceits
 meditate all the day.
38:13 And I, as deaf, hear not. And as a dumb one who openeth
 not his mouth.
38:14 Yea, I am as a man who heareth not, And in his mouth are
 no reproofs.
38:15 Because for Thee, O Jehovah, I have waited, Thou dost
 answer, O Lord my God.
38:16 When I said, `Lest they rejoice over me, In the slipping
 of my foot against me they magnified themselves.
38:17 For I am ready to halt, And my pain [is] before me
 continually.
38:18 For mine iniquity I declare, I am sorry for my sin.
38:19 And mine enemies [are] lively, They have been strong, and
 those hating me without cause, Have been multiplied.
38:20 And those paying evil for good accuse me, Because of my
 pursuing good.
38:21 Do not forsake me, O Jehovah, My God, be not far from me,
38:22 Haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation!
39:1 To the Overseer, to Jeduthun. -- A Psalm of David. I have
 said, `I observe my ways, Against sinning with my tongue, I
 keep for my mouth a curb, while the wicked [is] before me.'
39:2 I was dumb [with] silence, I kept silent from good, and my
 pain is excited.
39:3 Hot [is] my heart within me, In my meditating doth the fire
 burn, I have spoken with my tongue.
39:4 `Cause me to know, O Jehovah, mine end, And the measure of
 my days -- what it [is],' I know how frail I [am].
39:5 Lo, handbreadths Thou hast made my days, And mine age [is]
 as nothing before Thee, Only, all vanity [is] every man set up.
 Selah.
39:6 Only, in an image doth each walk habitually, Only, [in]
 vain, they are disquieted, He heapeth up and knoweth not who
 gathereth them.
39:7 And, now, what have I expected? O Lord, my hope -- it [is]
 of Thee.
39:8 From all my transgressions deliver me, A reproach of the
 fool make me not.
39:9 I have been dumb, I open not my mouth, Because Thou -- Thou
 hast done [it].
39:10 Turn aside from off me Thy stroke, From the striving of
 Thy hand I have been consumed.
39:11 With reproofs against iniquity, Thou hast corrected man,
 And dost waste as a moth his desirableness, Only, vanity [is]
 every man. Selah.
39:12 Hear my prayer, O Jehovah, And [to] my cry give ear, Unto
 my tear be not silent, For a sojourner I [am] with Thee, A
 settler like all my fathers.
39:13 Look from me, and I brighten up before I go and am not!
40:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. I have diligently
 expected Jehovah, And He inclineth to me, and heareth my cry,
40:2 And He doth cause me to come up From a pit of desolation --
 from mire of mud, And He raiseth up on a rock my feet, He is
 establishing my steps.
40:3 And He putteth in my mouth a new song, `Praise to our God.'
 Many do see and fear, and trust in Jehovah.
40:4 O the happiness of the man Who hath made Jehovah his trust,
 And hath not turned unto the proud, And those turning aside to
 lies.
40:5 Much hast Thou done, Jehovah my God; Thy wonders and Thy
 thoughts toward us, There is none to arrange unto Thee, I
 declare and speak: They have been more than to be numbered.
40:6 Sacrifice and present Thou hast not desired, Ears Thou hast
 prepared for me, Burnt and sin-offering Thou hast not asked.
40:7 Then said I, `Lo, I have come,' In the roll of the book it
 is written of me,
40:8 To do Thy pleasure, my God, I have delighted, And Thy law
 [is] within my heart.
40:9 I have proclaimed tidings of righteousness In the great
 assembly, lo, my lips I restrain not, O Jehovah, Thou hast
 known.
40:10 Thy righteousness I have not concealed In the midst of my
 heart, Thy faithfulness and Thy salvation I have told, I have
 not hidden Thy kindness and Thy truth, To the great assembly.
40:11 Thou, O Jehovah, restrainest not Thy mercies from me, Thy
 kindness and Thy truth do continually keep me.
40:12 For compassed me have evils innumerable, Overtaken me have
 mine iniquities, And I have not been able to see; They have
 been more than the hairs of my head, And my heart hath forsaken
 me.
40:13 Be pleased, O Jehovah, to deliver me, O Jehovah, for my
 help make haste.
40:14 They are ashamed and confounded together, Who are seeking
 my soul to destroy it, They are turned backward, And are
 ashamed, who are desiring my evil.
40:15 They are desolate because of their shame, Who are saying
 to me, `Aha, aha.'
40:16 All seeking Thee rejoice and are glad in Thee, Those
 loving Thy salvation say continually, `Jehovah is magnified.'
40:17 And I [am] poor and needy, The Lord doth devise for me. My
 help and my deliverer [art] Thou, O my God, tarry Thou not.
41:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. O the happiness of
 him Who is acting wisely unto the poor, In a day of evil doth
 Jehovah deliver him.
41:2 Jehovah doth preserve him and revive him, He is happy in
 the land, And Thou givest him not into the will of his enemies.
41:3 Jehovah supporteth on a couch of sickness, All his bed Thou
 hast turned in his weakness.
41:4 I -- I said, `O Jehovah, favour me, Heal my soul, for I did
 sin against Thee,'
41:5 Mine enemies say evil of me: When he dieth -- his name hath
 perished!
41:6 And if he came to see -- vanity he speaketh, His heart
 gathereth iniquity to itself, He goeth out -- at the street he
 speaketh.
41:7 All hating me whisper together against me, Against me they
 devise evil to me:
41:8 A thing of Belial is poured out on him, And because he lay
 down he riseth not again.
41:9 Even mine ally, in whom I trusted, One eating my bread,
 made great the heel against me,
41:10 And Thou, Jehovah, favour me, And cause me to rise, And I
 give recompence to them.
41:11 By this I have known, That Thou hast delighted in me,
 Because my enemy shouteth not over me.
41:12 As to me, in mine integrity, Thou hast taken hold upon me,
 And causest me to stand before Thee to the age.
41:13 Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age -- and
 unto the age. Amen and Amen.
42:1 To the Overseer. -- An Instruction. By sons of Korah. As a
 hart doth pant for streams of water, So my soul panteth toward
 Thee, O God.
42:2 My soul thirsted for God, for the living God, When do I
 enter and see the face of God?
42:3 My tear hath been to me bread day and night, In their
 saying unto me all the day, `Where [is] thy God?'
42:4 These I remember, and pour out my soul in me, For I pass
 over into the booth, I go softly with them unto the house of
 God, With the voice of singing and confession, The multitude
 keeping feast!
42:5 What! bowest thou thyself, O my soul? Yea, art thou
 troubled within me? Wait for God, for still I confess Him: The
 salvation of my countenance -- My God!
42:6 In me doth my soul bow itself, Therefore I remember Thee
 from the land of Jordan, And of the Hermons, from the hill
 Mizar.
42:7 Deep unto deep is calling At the noise of Thy
 water-spouts, All Thy breakers and Thy billows passed over me.
42:8 By day Jehovah commandeth His kindness, And by night a song
 [is] with me, A prayer to the God of my life.
42:9 I say to God my rock, `Why hast Thou forgotten me? Why go I
 mourning in the oppression of an enemy?
42:10 With a sword in my bones Have mine adversaries reproached
 me, In their saying unto me all the day, `Where [is] thy God?'
42:11 What! bowest thou thyself, O my soul? And what! art thou
 troubled within me? Wait for God, for still I confess Him, The
 salvation of my countenance, and my God!
43:1 Judge me, O God, And plead my cause against a nation not
 pious, From a man of deceit and perverseness Thou dost deliver
 me,
43:2 For thou [art] the God of my strength. Why hast Thou cast
 me off? Why mourning do I go up and down, In the oppression of
 an enemy?
43:3 Send forth Thy light and Thy truth, They -- they lead me,
 they bring me in, Unto Thy holy hill, and unto Thy tabernacles.
43:4 And I go in unto the altar of God, Unto God, the joy of my
 rejoicing. And I thank Thee with a harp, O God, my God.
43:5 What! bowest thou thyself, O my soul? And what! art thou
 troubled within me? Wait for God, for still I confess Him, The
 salvation of my countenance, and my God!
44:1 To the Overseer. -- By sons of Korah. An Instruction. O
 God, with our ears we have heard, Our fathers have recounted to
 us, The work Thou didst work in their days, In the days of old.
44:2 Thou, [with] Thy hand, nations hast dispossessed. And Thou
 dost plant them. Thou afflictest peoples, and sendest them
 away.
44:3 For, not by their sword Possessed they the land, And their
 arm gave not salvation to them, But Thy right hand, and Thine
 arm, And the light of Thy countenance, Because Thou hadst
 accepted them.
44:4 Thou [art] He, my king, O God, Command the deliverances of
 Jacob.
44:5 By Thee our adversaries we do push, By Thy name tread down
 our withstanders,
44:6 For, not in my bow do I trust, And my sword doth not save
 me.
44:7 For Thou hast saved us from our adversaries, And those
 hating us Thou hast put to shame.
44:8 In God we have boasted all the day, And Thy name to the age
 we thank. Selah.
44:9 In anger Thou hast cast off and causest us to blush, And
 goest not forth with our hosts.
44:10 Thou causest us to turn backward from an adversary, And
 those hating us, Have spoiled for themselves.
44:11 Thou makest us food like sheep, And among nations Thou
 hast scattered us.
44:12 Thou sellest Thy people -- without wealth, And hast not
 become great by their price.
44:13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, A scorn and a
 reproach to our surrounders.
44:14 Thou makest us a simile among nations, A shaking of the
 head among peoples.
44:15 All the day my confusion [is] before me, And the shame of
 my face hath covered me.
44:16 Because of the voice of a reproacher and reviler, Because
 of an enemy and a self-avenger.
44:17 All this met us, and we did not forget Thee, Nor have we
 dealt falsely in Thy covenant.
44:18 We turn not backward our heart, Nor turn aside doth our
 step from Thy path.
44:19 But Thou hast smitten us in a place of dragons, And dost
 cover us over with death-shade.
44:20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, And spread our
 hands to a strange God,
44:21 Doth not God search out this? For He knoweth the secrets
 of the heart.
44:22 Surely, for Thy sake we have been slain all the day,
 Reckoned as sheep of the slaughter.
44:23 Stir up -- why dost Thou sleep, O Lord? Awake, cast us not
 off for ever.
44:24 Why Thy face hidest Thou? Thou forgettest our afflictions
 and our oppression,
44:25 For bowed to the dust hath our soul, Cleaved to the earth
 hath our belly.
44:26 Arise, a help to us, And ransom us for thy kindness' sake.
45:1 To the Overseer. -- `On the Lilies.' -- By sons of Korah.
 -- An Instruction. -- A song of loves. My heart hath indited a
 good thing, I am telling my works to a king, My tongue [is] the
 pen of a speedy writer.
45:2 Thou hast been beautified above the sons of men, Grace hath
 been poured into thy lips, Therefore hath God blessed thee to
 the age.
45:3 Gird Thy sword upon the thigh, O mighty, Thy glory and Thy
 majesty!
45:4 As to Thy majesty -- prosper! -- ride! Because of truth,
 and meekness -- righteousness, And Thy right hand showeth Thee
 fearful things.
45:5 Thine arrows [are] sharp, -- Peoples fall under Thee -- In
 the heart of the enemies of the king.
45:6 Thy throne, O God, [is] age-during, and for ever, A sceptre
 of uprightness [Is] the sceptre of Thy kingdom.
45:7 Thou hast loved righteousness and hatest wickedness,
 Therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee, Oil of joy above
 thy companions.
45:8 Myrrh and aloes, cassia! all thy garments, Out of palaces
 of ivory Stringed instruments have made thee glad.
45:9 Daughters of kings [are] among thy precious ones, A queen
 hath stood at thy right hand, In pure gold of Ophir.
45:10 Hearken, O daughter, and see, incline thine ear, And
 forget thy people, and thy father's house,
45:11 And the king doth desire thy beauty, Because he [is] thy
 lord -- bow thyself to him,
45:12 And the daughter of Tyre with a present, The rich of the
 people do appease thy face.
45:13 All glory [is] the daughter of the king within, Of
 gold-embroidered work [is] her clothing.
45:14 In divers colours she is brought to the king, Virgins --
 after her -- her companions, Are brought to thee.
45:15 They are brought with joy and gladness, They come into the
 palace of the king.
45:16 Instead of thy fathers are thy sons, Thou dost appoint
 them for princes in all the earth.
45:17 I make mention of Thy name in all generations, Therefore
 do peoples praise Thee, To the age, and for ever!
46:1 To the Overseer. -- By sons of Korah. `For the Virgins.' --
 A song. God [is] to us a refuge and strength, A help in
 adversities found most surely.
46:2 Therefore we fear not in the changing of earth, And in the
 slipping of mountains Into the heart of the seas.
46:3 Roar -- troubled are its waters, Mountains they shake in
 its pride. Selah.
46:4 A river -- its rivulets rejoice the city of God, Thy holy
 place of the tabernacles of the Most High.
46:5 God [is] in her midst -- she is not moved, God doth help
 her at the turn of the morn!
46:6 Troubled have been nations, Moved have been kingdoms, He
 hath given forth with His voice, earth melteth.
46:7 Jehovah of Hosts [is] with us, A tower for us [is] the God
 of Jacob. Selah.
46:8 Come ye, see the works of Jehovah, Who hath done
 astonishing things in the earth,
46:9 Causing wars to cease, Unto the end of the earth, the bow
 he shivereth, And the spear He hath cut asunder, Chariots he
 doth burn with fire.
46:10 Desist, and know that I [am] God, I am exalted among
 nations, I am exalted in the earth.
46:11 Jehovah of hosts [is] with us, A tower for us [is] the God
 of Jacob! Selah.
47:1 To the Overseer. -- By sons of Korah. A Psalm. All ye
 peoples, clap the hand, Shout to God with a voice of singing,
47:2 For Jehovah Most High [is] fearful, A great king over all
 the earth.
47:3 He leadeth peoples under us, and nations under our feet.
47:4 He doth choose for us our inheritance, The excellency of
 Jacob that He loves. Selah.
47:5 God hath gone up with a shout, Jehovah with the sound of a
 trumpet.
47:6 Praise God -- praise -- give praise to our king, praise.
47:7 For king of all the earth [is] God, Give praise, O
 understanding one.
47:8 God hath reigned over nations, God hath sat on His holy
 throne,
47:9 Nobles of peoples have been gathered, [With] the people of
 the God of Abraham, For to God [are] the shields of earth,
 Greatly hath He been exalted!
48:1 A Song, a Psalm, by sons of Korah. Great [is] Jehovah, and
 praised greatly, In the city of our God -- His holy hill.
48:2 Beautiful [for] elevation, A joy of all the land, [is]
 Mount Zion, The sides of the north, the city of a great king.
48:3 God in her high places is known for a tower.
48:4 For, lo, the kings met, they passed by together,
48:5 They have seen -- so they have marvelled, They have been
 troubled, they were hastened away.
48:6 Trembling hath seized them there, Pain, as of a travailing
 woman.
48:7 By an east wind Thou shiverest ships of Tarshish.
48:8 As we have heard, so we have seen, In the city of Jehovah
 of hosts, In the city of our God, God doth establish her -- to
 the age. Selah.
48:9 We have thought, O God, of Thy kindness, In the midst of
 Thy temple,
48:10 As [is] Thy name, O God, so [is] Thy praise, Over the ends
 of the earth, Righteousness hath filled Thy right hand.
48:11 Rejoice doth Mount Zion, The daughters of Judah are
 joyful, For the sake of Thy judgments.
48:12 Compass Zion, and go round her, count her towers,
48:13 Set your heart to her bulwark, Consider her high places,
 So that ye recount to a later generation,
48:14 That this God [is] our God -- To the age and for ever, He
 -- he doth lead us over death!
49:1 To the Overseer. -- By sons of Korah. A Psalm. Hear this,
 all ye peoples, Give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world.
49:2 Both low and high, together rich and needy.
49:3 My mouth speaketh wise things, And the meditations of my
 heart [are] things of understanding.
49:4 I incline to a simile mine ear, I open with a harp my
 riddle:
49:5 Why do I fear in days of evil? The iniquity of my
 supplanters doth compass me.
49:6 Those trusting on their wealth, And in the multitude of
 their riches, Do shew themselves foolish.
49:7 A brother doth no one at all ransom, He doth not give to
 God his atonement.
49:8 And precious [is] the redemption of their soul, And it hath
 ceased -- to the age.
49:9 And still he liveth for ever, He seeth not the pit.
49:10 For he seeth wise men die, Together the foolish and
 brutish perish, And have left to others their wealth.
49:11 Their heart [is]: Their houses [are] to the age, Their
 tabernacles to all generations. They proclaimed their names
 over the lands.
49:12 And man in honour doth not remain, He hath been like the
 beasts, they have been cut off.
49:13 This their way [is] folly for them, And their posterity
 with their sayings are pleased. Selah.
49:14 As sheep for Sheol they have set themselves, Death doth
 afflict them, And the upright rule over them in the morning,
 And their form [is] for consumption. Sheol [is] a dwelling for
 him.
49:15 Only, God doth ransom my soul from the hand of Sheol, For
 He doth receive me. Selah.
49:16 Fear not, when one maketh wealth, When the honour of his
 house is abundant,
49:17 For at his death he receiveth nothing, His honour goeth
 not down after him.
49:18 For his soul in his life he blesseth, (And they praise
 thee when thou dost well for thyself.)
49:19 It cometh to the generation of his fathers, For ever they
 see not the light.
49:20 Man in honour, who understandest not, Hath been like the
 beasts, they have been cut off!
50:1 A Psalm of Asaph. The God of gods -- Jehovah -- hath
 spoken, And He calleth to the earth From the rising of the sun
 unto its going in.
50:2 From Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shone.
50:3 Our God cometh, and is not silent, Fire before Him doth
 devour, And round about him it hath been very tempestuous.
50:4 He doth call unto the heavens from above, And unto the
 earth, to judge His people.
50:5 Gather ye to Me My saints, Making covenant with Me over a
 sacrifice.
50:6 And the heavens declare His righteousness, For God Himself
 [is] judge. Selah.
50:7 Hear, O My people, and I speak, O Israel, and I testify
 against thee, God, thy God [am] I.
50:8 Not for thy sacrifices do I reprove thee, Yea, thy
 burnt-offerings [Are] before Me continually.
50:9 I take not from thy house a bullock, From thy folds
 he goats.
50:10 For Mine [is] every beast of the forest, The cattle on the
 hills of oxen.
50:11 I have known every fowl of the mountains, And the wild
 beast of the field [is] with Me.
50:12 If I am hungry I tell not to thee, For Mine [is] the world
 and its fulness.
50:13 Do I eat the flesh of bulls, And drink the blood of
 he-goats?
50:14 Sacrifice to God confession, And complete to the Most High
 thy vows.
50:15 And call Me in a day of adversity, I deliver thee, and
 thou honourest Me.
50:16 And to the wicked hath God said: What to thee -- to
 recount My statutes? That thou liftest up My covenant on thy
 mouth?
50:17 Yea, thou hast hated instruction, And dost cast My words
 behind thee.
50:18 If thou hast seen a thief, Then thou art pleased with him,
 And with adulterers [is] thy portion.
50:19 Thy mouth thou hast sent forth with evil, And thy tongue
 joineth deceit together,
50:20 Thou sittest, against thy brother thou speakest, Against a
 son of thy mother givest slander.
50:21 These thou didst, and I kept silent, Thou hast thought
 that I am like thee, I reprove thee, and set in array before
 thine eyes.
50:22 Understand this, I pray you, Ye who are forgetting God,
 Lest I tear, and there is no deliverer.
50:23 He who is sacrificing praise honoureth Me, As to him who
 maketh a way, I cause him to look on the salvation of God!
51:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David, in the coming inn
 unto him of Nathan the prophet, when he hath gone in unto
 Bath-Sheba. Favour me, O God, according to Thy kindness,
 According to the abundance of Thy mercies, Blot out my
 transgressions.
51:2 Thoroughly wash me from mine iniquity, And from my sin
 cleanse me,
51:3 For my transgressions I do know, And my sin [is] before me
 continually.
51:4 Against Thee, Thee only, I have sinned, And done the evil
 thing in Thine eyes, So that Thou art righteous in Thy words,
 Thou art pure in Thy judging.
51:5 Lo, in iniquity I have been brought forth, And in sin doth
 my mother conceive me.
51:6 Lo, truth Thou hast desired in the inward parts, And in the
 hidden part Wisdom Thou causest me to know.
51:7 Thou cleansest me with hyssop and I am clean, Washest me,
 and than snow I am whiter.
51:8 Thou causest me to hear joy and gladness, Thou makest
 joyful bones Thou hast bruised.
51:9 Hide Thy face from my sin. And all mine iniquities blot
 out.
51:10 A clean heart prepare for me, O God, And a right spirit
 renew within me.
51:11 Cast me not forth from Thy presence, And Thy Holy Spirit
 take not from me.
51:12 Restore to me the joy of Thy salvation, And a willing
 spirit doth sustain me.
51:13 I teach transgressors Thy ways, And sinners unto Thee do
 return.
51:14 Deliver me from blood, O God, God of my salvation, My
 tongue singeth of Thy righteousness.
51:15 O Lord, my lips thou dost open, And my mouth declareth Thy
 praise.
51:16 For Thou desirest not sacrifice, or I give [it],
 Burnt-offering Thou acceptest not.
51:17 The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit, A heart
 broken and bruised, O God, Thou dost not despise.
51:18 Do good in Thy good pleasure with Zion, Thou dost build
 the walls of Jerusalem.
51:19 Then Thou desirest sacrifices of righteousness,
 Burnt-offering, and whole burnt-offering, Then they offer
 bullocks on thine altar!
52:1 To the Overseer. -- An instruction, by David, in the coming
 in of Doeg the Edomite, and he declareth to Saul, and saith to
 him, `David came in unto the house of Ahimelech.' What,
 boasteth thou in evil, O mighty one? The kindness of God [is]
 all the day.
52:2 Mischiefs doth thy tongue devise, Like a sharp razor,
 working deceit.
52:3 Thou hast loved evil rather than good, Lying, than speaking
 righteousness. Selah.
52:4 Thou hast loved all devouring words, O thou deceitful
 tongue.
52:5 Also -- God doth break thee down for ever, Taketh thee, and
 pulleth thee out of the tent, And He hath uprooted thee Out of
 the land of the living. Selah.
52:6 And the righteous see, And fear, and laugh at him.
52:7 `Lo, the man who maketh not God his strong place, And
 trusteth in the abundance of his riches, He is strong in his
 mischiefs.'
52:8 And I, as a green olive in the house of God, I have trusted
 in the kindness of God, To the age and for ever,
52:9 I thank Thee to the age, because Thou hast done [it], And I
 wait [on] Thy name for [it is] good before Thy saints!
53:1 To the Overseer. -- `On a disease.' -- An instruction, by
 David. A fool said in his heart, `There is no God.' They have
 done corruptly, Yea, they have done abominable iniquity, There
 is none doing good.
53:2 God from the heavens looked on the sons of men, To see if
 there be an understanding one, [One] seeking God.
53:3 Every one went back, together they became filthy, There is
 none doing good -- not even one.
53:4 Have not workers of iniquity known, Those eating my people
 have eaten bread, God they have not called.
53:5 There they feared a fear -- there was no fear, For God hath
 scattered the bones of him Who is encamping against thee, Thou
 hast put to shame, For God hath despised them.
53:6 Who doth give from Zion the salvation of Israel? When God
 turneth back [to] a captivity of His people, Jacob doth rejoice
 -- Israel is glad!
54:1 To the Overseer with stringed instruments. -- An
 instruction, by David, in the coming in of the Ziphim, and they
 say to Saul, `Is not David hiding himself with us?' O God, by
 Thy name save me, and by Thy might judge me.
54:2 O God, hear my prayer, Give ear to the sayings of my mouth,
54:3 For strangers have risen up against me And terrible ones
 have sought my soul, They have not set God before them. Selah.
54:4 Lo, God [is] a helper to me, The Lord [is] with those
 supporting my soul,
54:5 Turn back doth the evil thing to mine enemies, In Thy truth
 cut them off.
54:6 With a free will-offering I sacrifice to Thee, I thank Thy
 name, O Jehovah, for [it is] good,
54:7 For, from all adversity He delivered me, And on mine
 enemies hath mine eye looked!
55:1 To the Overseer with stringed instruments. -- An
 instruction, by David. Give ear, O God, [to] my prayer, And
 hide not from my supplication.
55:2 Attend to me, and answer me, I mourn in my meditation, and
 make a noise,
55:3 Because of the voice of an enemy, Because of the oppression
 of the wicked, For they cause sorrow to move against me, And in
 anger they hate me.
55:4 My heart is pained within me, And terrors of death have
 fallen on me.
55:5 Fear and trembling come in to me, And horror doth cover me.
55:6 And I say, `Who doth give to me a pinion as a dove? I fly
 away and rest,
55:7 Lo, I move far off, I lodge in a wilderness. Selah.
55:8 I hasten escape for myself, From a rushing wind, from a
 whirlwind.
55:9 Swallow up, O Lord, divide their tongue, For I saw violence
 and strife in a city.
55:10 By day and by night they go round it, on its walls. Both
 iniquity and perverseness [are] in its midst,
55:11 Mischiefs [are] in its midst. Fraud and deceit depart not
 from its street.
55:12 For an enemy reproacheth me not, or I bear [it], He who is
 hating me Hath not magnified himself against me, Or I hide from
 him.
55:13 But thou, a man -- as mine equal, My familiar friend, and
 mine acquaintance.
55:14 When together we sweeten counsel, Into the house of God we
 walk in company.
55:15 Desolations [are] upon them, They go down [to] Sheol --
 alive, For wickedness [is] in their dwelling, in their midst.
55:16 I -- to God I call, and Jehovah saveth me.
55:17 Evening, and morning, and noon, I meditate, and make a
 noise, and He heareth my voice,
55:18 He hath ransomed in peace my soul From him who is near to
 me, For with the multitude they were with me.
55:19 God doth hear and afflict them, And He sitteth of old.
 Selah. Because they have no changes, and fear not God,
55:20 He hath sent forth his hands against his well-wishers, He
 hath polluted his covenant.
55:21 Sweeter than honey hath been his mouth, And his heart [is]
 war! Softer have been his words than oil, And they [are] drawn
 [swords].
55:22 Cast on Jehovah that which He hath given thee, And He doth
 sustain thee, He doth not suffer for ever the moving of the
 righteous.
55:23 And Thou, O God, dost bring them down To a pit of
 destruction, Men of blood and deceit reach not to half their
 days, And I -- I do trust in Thee!
56:1 To the Overseer. -- `On the Dumb Dove far off.' -- A secret
 treasure of David, in the Philistines' taking hold of him in
 Gath. Favour me, O God, for man swallowed me up, All the day
 fighting he oppresseth me,
56:2 Mine enemies have swallowed up all the day, For many [are]
 fighting against me, O most High,
56:3 The day I am afraid I am confident toward Thee.
56:4 In God I praise His word, in God I have trusted, I fear not
 what flesh doth to me.
56:5 All the day they wrest my words, Concerning me all their
 thoughts [are] for evil,
56:6 They assemble, they hide, they watch my heels, When they
 have expected my soul.
56:7 By iniquity they escape, In anger the peoples put down, O
 God.
56:8 My wandering Thou hast counted, Thou -- place Thou my tear
 in Thy bottle, Are they not in Thy book?
56:9 Then turn back do mine enemies in the day I call. This I
 have known, that God [is] for me.
56:10 In God I praise the word, In Jehovah I praise the word.
56:11 In God I trusted, I fear not what man doth to me,
56:12 On me, O God, [are] Thy vows, I repay thank-offerings to
 Thee.
56:13 For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, Dost Thou not
 my feet from falling? To walk habitually before God in the
 light of the living!
57:1 To the Overseer. -- `Destroy not.' -- A secret treasure of
 David, in his fleeing from the face of Saul into a cave. Favour
 me, O God, favour me, For in Thee is my soul trusting, And in
 the shadow of Thy wings I trust, Until the calamities pass
 over.
57:2 I call to God Most High, To God [who] is perfecting for me.
57:3 He sendeth from the heaven, and saveth me, He reproached --
 who is panting after me. Selah. God sendeth forth His kindness
 and His truth.
57:4 My soul [is] in the midst of lions, I lie down [among]
 flames -- sons of men, Their teeth [are] a spear and arrows,
 And their tongue a sharp sword.
57:5 Be Thou exalted above the heavens, O God, Above all the
 earth Thine honour.
57:6 A net they have prepared for my steps, Bowed down hath my
 soul, They have digged before me a pit, They have fallen into
 its midst. Selah.
57:7 Prepared is my heart, O God, Prepared is my heart, I sing
 and praise.
57:8 Awake, mine honour, awake, psaltery and harp, I awake the
 morning dawn.
57:9 I thank Thee among the peoples, O Lord, I praise Thee among
 the nations.
57:10 For great unto the heavens [is] Thy kindness, And unto the
 clouds Thy truth.
57:11 Be thou exalted above the heavens, O God. Above all the
 earth Thine honour!
58:1 To the Overseer. -- `Destroy not.' -- A secret treasure, by
 David. Is it true, O dumb one, righteously ye speak? Uprightly
 ye judge, O sons of men?
58:2 Even in heart ye work iniquities, In the land the violence
 of your hands ye ponder.
58:3 The wicked have been estranged from the womb, They have
 erred from the belly, speaking lies.
58:4 Their poison [is] as poison of a serpent, As a deaf asp
 shutting its ear,
58:5 Which hearkeneth not to the voice of whisperers, A charmer
 of charms most skilful.
58:6 O God, break their teeth in their mouth, The jaw-teeth of
 young lions break down, O Jehovah.
58:7 They are melted as waters, They go up and down for
 themselves, His arrow proceedeth as they cut themselves off.
58:8 As a snail that melteth he goeth on, [As] an untimely birth
 of a woman, They have not seen the sun.
58:9 Before your pots discern the bramble, As well the raw as
 the heated He whirleth away.
58:10 The righteous rejoiceth that he hath seen vengeance, His
 steps he washeth in the blood of the wicked.
58:11 And man saith: `Surely fruit [is] for the righteous:
 Surely there is a God judging in the earth!'
59:1 To the Overseer. -- `Destroy not,' by David. -- A secret
 treasure, in Saul's sending, and they watch the house to put
 him to death. Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God, From my
 withstanders set me on high.
59:2 Deliver me from workers of iniquity, And from men of blood
 save me.
59:3 For, lo, they laid wait for my soul, Assembled against me
 are strong ones, Not my transgression nor my sin, O Jehovah.
59:4 Without punishment they run and prepare themselves, Stir up
 to meet me, and see.
59:5 And Thou, Jehovah, God of Hosts, God of Israel, Awake to
 inspect all the nations. Favour not any treacherous dealers of
 iniquity. Selah.
59:6 They turn back at evening, They make a noise like a dog,
 And go round about the city.
59:7 Lo, they belch out with their mouths, Swords [are] in their
 lips, for `Who heareth?'
59:8 And Thou, O Jehovah dost laugh at them, Thou dost mock at
 all the nations.
59:9 O my Strength, unto Thee I take heed, For God [is] my tower
 -- the God of my kindness.
59:10 God doth go before me, He causeth me to look on mine
 enemies.
59:11 Slay them not, lest my people forget, Shake them by Thy
 strength, And bring them down, O Lord our shield.
59:12 The sin of their mouth [is] a word of their lips, And they
 are captured in their pride, And from the curse and lying they
 recount.
59:13 Consume in fury, consume and they are not, And they know
 that God is ruling in Jacob, To the ends of the earth. Selah.
59:14 And they turn back at evening, They make a noise like a
 dog, And they go round about the city.
59:15 They -- they wander for food, If they are not satisfied --
 then they murmur.
59:16 And I -- I sing [of] Thy strength, And I sing at morn [of]
 Thy kindness, For thou hast been a tower to me, And a refuge
 for me in a day of adversity.
59:17 O my Strength, unto Thee I sing praise, For God [is] my
 tower, the God of my kindness!
60:1 To the Overseer. -- `Concerning the Lily of Testimony,' a
 secret treasure of David, to teach, in his striving with
 Aram-Naharaim, and with Aram-Zobah, and Joab turneth back and
 smiteth Edom in the valley of Salt -- twelve thousand. O God,
 Thou hadst cast us off, Thou hadst broken us -- hadst been
 angry! -- Thou dost turn back to us.
60:2 Thou hast caused the land to tremble, Thou hast broken it,
 Heal its breaches, for it hath moved.
60:3 Thou hast shewn Thy people a hard thing, Thou hast caused
 us to drink wine of trembling.
60:4 Thou hast given to those fearing thee an ensign. To be
 lifted up as an ensign Because of truth. Selah.
60:5 That Thy beloved ones may be drawn out, Save [with] Thy
 right hand, and answer us.
60:6 God hath spoken in His holiness: I exult -- I apportion
 Shechem, And the valley of Succoth I measure,
60:7 Mine [is] Gilead, and mine [is] Manasseh, And Ephraim [is]
 the strength of my head, Judah [is] my lawgiver,
60:8 Moab [is] my pot for washing, over Edom I cast my shoe,
 Shout, concerning me, O Philistia.
60:9 Who doth bring me [to] a city of bulwarks? Who hath led me
 unto Edom?
60:10 Is it not Thou, O God? hast Thou cast us off? And dost
 Thou not go forth, O God, with our hosts!
60:11 Give to us help from adversity, And vain [is] the
 deliverance of man.
60:12 In God we do mightily, And He treadeth down our
 adversaries!
61:1 To the Overseer, on stringed instruments. -- By David.
 Hear, O God, my loud cry, attend to my prayer.
61:2 From the end of the land unto Thee I call, In the
 feebleness of my heart, Into a rock higher than I Thou dost
 lead me.
61:3 For Thou hast been a refuge for me, A tower of strength
 because of the enemy.
61:4 I sojourn in Thy tent to the ages, I trust in the secret
 place of Thy wings. Selah.
61:5 For Thou, O God, hast hearkened to my vows, Thou hast
 appointed the inheritance Of those fearing Thy name.
61:6 Days to the days of the king Thou addest, His years as
 generation and generation.
61:7 He dwelleth to the age before God, Kindness and truth
 appoint -- they keep him.
61:8 So do I praise Thy name for ever, When I pay my vows day by
 day!
62:1 To the Overseer, for Jeduthun. -- A Psalm of David. Only --
 toward God [is] my soul silent, From Him [is] my salvation.
62:2 Only -- He [is] my rock, and my salvation, My tower, I am
 not much moved.
62:3 Till when do ye devise mischief against a man? Ye are
 destroyed all of you, As a wall inclined, a hedge that is cast
 down.
62:4 Only -- from his excellency They have consulted to drive
 away, They enjoy a lie, with their mouth they bless, And with
 their heart revile. Selah.
62:5 Only -- for God, be silent, O my soul, For from Him [is] my
 hope.
62:6 Only -- He [is] my rock and my salvation, My tower, I am
 not moved.
62:7 On God [is] my salvation, and my honour, The rock of my
 strength, my refuge [is] in God.
62:8 Trust in Him at all times, O people, Pour forth before Him
 your heart, God [is] a refuge for us. Selah.
62:9 Only -- vanity [are] the low, a lie the high. In balances
 to go up they than vanity [are] lighter.
62:10 Trust not in oppression, And in robbery become not vain,
 Wealth -- when it increaseth -- set not the heart.
62:11 Once hath God spoken, twice I heard this, That `strength
 [is] with God.'
62:12 And with Thee, O Lord, [is] kindness, For Thou dost
 recompense to each, According to his work!
63:1 A Psalm of David, in his being in the wilderness of Judah.
 O God, Thou [art] my God, earnestly do I seek Thee, Thirsted
 for Thee hath my soul, Longed for Thee hath my flesh, In a land
 dry and weary, without waters.
63:2 So in the sanctuary I have seen Thee, To behold Thy
 strength and Thine honour.
63:3 Because better [is] Thy kindness than life, My lips do
 praise Thee.
63:4 So I bless Thee in my life, in Thy name I lift up my hands.
63:5 As [with] milk and fatness is my soul satisfied, And [with]
 singing lips doth my mouth praise.
63:6 If I have remembered Thee on my couch, In the watches -- I
 meditate on Thee.
63:7 For Thou hast been a help to me, And in the shadow of Thy
 wings I sing.
63:8 Cleaved hath my soul after Thee, On me hath Thy right hand
 taken hold.
63:9 And they who for desolation seek my soul, Go in to the
 lower parts of the earth.
63:10 They cause him to run on the edge of the sword, A portion
 for foxes they are.
63:11 And the king doth rejoice in God, Boast himself doth every
 one swearing by Him, But stopped is the mouth of those speaking
 lies!
64:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. Hear, O God, my
 voice, in my meditation, From the fear of an enemy Thou keepest
 my life,
64:2 Hidest me from the secret counsel of evil doers, From the
 tumult of workers of iniquity.
64:3 Who sharpened as a sword their tongue, They directed their
 arrow -- a bitter word.
64:4 To shoot in secret places the perfect, Suddenly they shoot
 him, and fear not.
64:5 They strengthen for themselves an evil thing, They recount
 of the hiding of snares, They have said, `Who doth look at it?'
64:6 They search out perverse things, `We perfected a searching
 search,' And the inward part of man, and the heart [are] deep.
64:7 And God doth shoot them [with] an arrow, Sudden have been
 their wounds,
64:8 And they cause him to stumble, Against them [is] their own
 tongue, Every looker on them fleeth away.
64:9 And all men fear, and declare the work of God, And His deed
 they have considered wisely.
64:10 The righteous doth rejoice in Jehovah, And hath trusted in
 Him, And boast themselves do all the upright of heart!
65:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. A Song. To Thee,
 silence -- praise, O God, [is] in Zion, And to Thee is a vow
 completed.
65:2 Hearer of prayer, to Thee all flesh cometh.
65:3 Matters of iniquities were mightier than I, Our
 transgressions -- Thou dost cover them.
65:4 O the happiness of [him whom] Thou choosest, And drawest
 near, he inhabiteth Thy courts, We are satisfied with the
 goodness of Thy house, Thy holy temple.
65:5 By fearful things in righteousness Thou answerest us, O God
 of our salvation, The confidence of all far off ends of earth
 and sea.
65:6 Establishing mountains by His power, He hath been girded
 with might,
65:7 Restraining the noise of seas, the noise of their billows,
 And the multitude of the peoples.
65:8 And the inhabitants of the uttermost parts From Thy signs
 are afraid, The outgoings of morning and evening Thou causest
 to sing.
65:9 Thou hast inspected the earth, and waterest it, Thou makest
 it very rich, the rivulet of God [is] full of water, Thou
 preparest their corn, When thus Thou dost prepare it,
65:10 Its ridges have been filled, Deepened hath been its
 furrow, With showers Thou dost soften it, Its springing up Thou
 blessest.
65:11 Thou hast crowned the year of Thy goodness, And Thy paths
 drop fatness.
65:12 Drop do the pastures of a wilderness, And joy of the
 heights Thou girdest on.
65:13 Clothed have lambs the flock, And valleys are covered with
 corn, They shout -- yea, they sing!
66:1 To the Overseer. -- A Song, a Psalm. Shout ye to God, all
 the earth.
66:2 Praise ye the honour of His name, Make ye honourable His
 praise.
66:3 Say to God, `How fearful [are] Thy works, By the abundance
 of Thy strength, Thine enemies feign obedience to Thee.
66:4 All the earth do bow to Thee, They sing praise to Thee,
 they praise Thy name.' Selah.
66:5 Come ye, and see the works of God, Fearful acts toward the
 sons of men.
66:6 He hath turned a sea to dry land, Through a river they pass
 over on foot, There do we rejoice in Him.
66:7 Ruling by His might to the age, His eyes among the nations
 do watch, The refractory exalt not themselves. Selah.
66:8 Bless, ye peoples, our God, And sound the voice of His
 praise,
66:9 Who hath placed our soul in life, And suffered not our feet
 to be moved.
66:10 For Thou hast tried us, O God, Thou hast refined us as the
 refining of silver.
66:11 Thou hast brought us into a net, Thou hast placed pressure
 on our loins.
66:12 Thou hast caused man to ride at our head. We have entered
 into fire and into water, And Thou bringest us out to a watered
 place.
66:13 I enter Thy house with burnt-offerings, I complete to Thee
 my vows,
66:14 For opened were my lips, And my mouth spake in my
 distress:
66:15 `Burnt-offerings of fatlings I offer to Thee, With perfume
 of rams, I prepare a bullock with he-goats.' Selah.
66:16 Come, hear, all ye who fear God, And I recount what he did
 for my soul.
66:17 Unto Him [with] my mouth I have called, And exaltation
 [is] under my tongue.
66:18 Iniquity, if I have seen in my heart, The Lord doth not
 hear.
66:19 But God hath heard, He hath attended to the voice of my
 prayer.
66:20 Blessed [is] God, Who hath not turned aside my prayer, And
 His loving-kindness, from me!
67:1 To the Overseer, with stringed instruments. -- A Psalm, a
 Song. God doth favour us and bless us, Doth cause His face to
 shine with us. Selah.
67:2 For the knowledge in earth of Thy way, among all nations of
 Thy salvation.
67:3 Praise Thee do peoples, O God, Praise Thee do peoples, all
 of them.
67:4 Rejoice and sing do nations, For Thou judgest peoples
 uprightly, And peoples on earth comfortest. Selah.
67:5 Confess Thee do peoples, O God, Confess Thee do peoples --
 all of them.
67:6 Earth hath given her increase, God doth bless us -- our
 God,
67:7 God doth bless us, and all ends of earth fear Him!
68:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm, a song of David. Rise doth God
 -- scattered are His enemies! And those hating Him flee from
 His face.
68:2 As the driving away of smoke Thou drivest away, As the
 melting of wax before fire, The wicked perish at the presence
 of God.
68:3 And the righteous rejoice, they exult before God, And they
 joy with gladness.
68:4 Sing ye to God -- praise His name, Raise up a highway for
 Him who is riding in deserts, In Jah [is] His name, and exult
 before Him.
68:5 Father of the fatherless, and judge of the widows, [Is] God
 in His holy habitation.
68:6 God -- causing the lonely to dwell at home, Bringing out
 bound ones into prosperity, Only -- the refractory have
 inhabited a dry place.
68:7 O God, in Thy going forth before Thy people, In Thy
 stepping through the wilderness, Selah.
68:8 The earth hath shaken, Yea, the heavens have dropped before
 God, This Sinai -- before God, the God of Israel.
68:9 A shower of free-will gifts thou shakest out, O God. Thine
 inheritance, when it hath been weary, Thou hast established it.
68:10 Thy company have dwelt in it, Thou preparest in Thy
 goodness for the poor, O God.
68:11 The Lord doth give the saying, The female proclaimers
 [are] a numerous host.
68:12 Kings of hosts flee utterly away, And a female inhabitant
 of the house apportioneth spoil.
68:13 Though ye do lie between two boundaries, Wings of a dove
 covered with silver, And her pinions with yellow gold.
68:14 When the Mighty spreadeth kings in it, It doth snow in
 Salmon.
68:15 A hill of God [is] the hill of Bashan, A hill of heights
 [is] the hill of Bashan.
68:16 Why do ye envy, O high hills, The hill God hath desired
 for His seat? Jehovah also doth tabernacle for ever.
68:17 The chariots of God [are] myriads, thousands of changes,
 The Lord [is] among them, in Sinai, in the sanctuary.
68:18 Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast taken captive
 captivity, Thou hast taken gifts for men, That even the
 refractory may rest, O Jah God.
68:19 Blessed [is] the Lord, day by day He layeth on us. God
 Himself [is] our salvation. Selah.
68:20 God Himself [is] to us a God for deliverances, And Jehovah
 Lord hath the outgoings of death.
68:21 Only -- God doth smite The head of His enemies, The hairy
 crown of a habitual walker in his guilt.
68:22 The Lord said: `From Bashan I bring back, I bring back
 from the depths of the sea.
68:23 So that thou dashest thy foot in blood, [In the blood of]
 enemies -- the tongue of Thy dogs.'
68:24 They have seen Thy goings, O God, Goings of my God, my
 king, in the sanctuary.
68:25 Singers have been before, Behind [are] players on
 instruments, In the midst virgins playing with timbrels.
68:26 In assemblies bless ye God, The Lord -- from the fountain
 of Israel.
68:27 There [is] little Benjamin their ruler, Heads of Judah
 their defence, Heads of Zebulun -- heads of Naphtali.
68:28 Thy God hath commanded thy strength, Be strong, O God,
 this Thou hast wrought for us.
68:29 Because of Thy temple at Jerusalem, To Thee do kings bring
 a present.
68:30 Rebuke a beast of the reeds, a company of bulls, With
 calves of the peoples, Each humbling himself with pieces of
 silver, Scatter Thou peoples delighting in conflicts.
68:31 Come do fat ones out of Egypt, Cush causeth her hands to
 run to God.
68:32 Kingdoms of the earth, sing ye to God, Praise ye the Lord.
 Selah.
68:33 To him who is riding on the heavens of the heavens of old,
 Lo, He giveth with His voice a strong voice.
68:34 Ascribe ye strength to God, Over Israel [is] His
 excellency, and His strength in the clouds.
68:35 Fearful, O God, out of Thy sanctuaries, The God of Israel
 Himself, Giving strength and might to the people. Blessed [is]
 God!
69:1 To the Overseer. -- `On the Lilies,' by David. Save me, O
 God, for come have waters unto the soul.
69:2 I have sunk in deep mire, And there is no standing, I have
 come into the depths of the waters, And a flood hath overflown
 me.
69:3 I have been wearied with my calling, Burnt hath been my
 throat, Consumed have been mine eyes, waiting for my God.
69:4 Those hating me without cause Have been more than the hairs
 of my head, Mighty have been my destroyers, My lying enemies,
 That which I took not away -- I bring back.
69:5 O God, Thou -- Thou hast known Concerning my overturn, And
 my desolations from Thee have not been hid.
69:6 Let not those waiting on Thee be ashamed because of me, O
 Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, Let not those seeking Thee Blush
 because of me, O God of Israel.
69:7 For because of Thee I have borne reproach, Shame hath
 covered my face.
69:8 A stranger I have been to my brother, And a foreigner to
 sons of my mother.
69:9 For zeal for Thy house hath consumed me, And the reproaches
 of Thy reproachers Have fallen upon me.
69:10 And I weep in the fasting of my soul, And it is for a
 reproach to me.
69:11 And I make my clothing sackcloth, And I am to them for a
 simile.
69:12 Those sitting at the gate meditate concerning me, And
 those drinking strong drink, Play on instruments.
69:13 And I -- my prayer [is] to Thee, O Jehovah, A time of good
 pleasure, O God, In the abundance of Thy kindness, Answer me in
 the truth of Thy salvation.
69:14 Deliver me from the mire, and let me not sink, Let me be
 delivered from those hating me, And from deep places of waters.
69:15 Let not a flood of waters overflow me, Nor let the deep
 swallow me up, Nor let the pit shut her mouth upon me.
69:16 Answer me, O Jehovah, for good [is] Thy kindness,
 According to the abundance Of Thy mercies turn Thou unto me,
69:17 And hide not Thy face from Thy servant, For I am in
 distress -- haste, answer me.
69:18 Be near unto my soul -- redeem it, Because of mine enemies
 ransom me.
69:19 Thou -- Thou hast known my reproach, And my shame, and my
 blushing, Before Thee [are] all mine adversaries.
69:20 Reproach hath broken my heart, and I am sick, And I look
 for a bemoaner, and there is none, And for comforters, and I
 have found none.
69:21 And they give for my food gall, And for my thirst cause me
 to drink vinegar.
69:22 Their table before them is for a snare, And for a
 recompence -- for a trap.
69:23 Darkened are their eyes from seeing, And their loins
 continually shake Thou.
69:24 Pour upon them Thine indignation, And the fierceness of
 Thine anger doth seize them.
69:25 Their tower is desolated, In their tents there is no
 dweller.
69:26 For they have pursued him Thou hast smitten, And recount
 of the pain of Thy pierced ones.
69:27 Give punishment for their iniquity, And they enter not
 into Thy righteousness.
69:28 They are blotted out of the book of life, And with the
 righteous are not written.
69:29 And I [am] afflicted and pained, Thy salvation, O God,
 doth set me on high.
69:30 I praise the name of God with a song, And I magnify Him
 with thanksgiving,
69:31 And it is better to Jehovah than an ox, A bullock --
 horned -- hoofed.
69:32 The humble have seen -- they rejoice, Ye who seek God --
 and your heart liveth.
69:33 For Jehovah hearkeneth unto the needy, And His bound ones
 He hath not despised.
69:34 The heavens and earth do praise Him, Seas, and every
 moving thing in them.
69:35 For God doth save Zion, And doth build the cities of
 Judah, And they have dwelt there, and possess it.
69:36 And the seed of His servants inherit it, And those loving
 His name dwell in it!
70:1 To the Overseer, by David. -- `To cause to remember.' O
 God, to deliver me, O Jehovah, for my help, haste.
70:2 Let them be ashamed and confounded Who are seeking my soul,
 Let them be turned backward and blush Who are desiring my evil.
70:3 Let them turn back because of their shame, Who are saying,
 `Aha, aha.'
70:4 Let all those seeking Thee joy and be glad in Thee, And let
 those loving Thy salvation Say continually, `God is magnified.'
70:5 And I [am] poor and needy, O God, haste to me, My help and
 my deliverer [art] Thou, O Jehovah, tarry Thou not!
71:1 In Thee, O Jehovah, I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed
 to the age.
71:2 In Thy righteousness Thou dost deliver me, And dost cause
 me to escape, Incline unto me Thine ear, and save me.
71:3 Be to me for a rock -- a habitation, To go in continually,
 Thou hast given command to save me, For my rock and my bulwark
 [art] Thou.
71:4 O my God, cause me to escape From the hand of the wicked,
 From the hand of the perverse and violent.
71:5 For Thou [art] my hope, O Lord Jehovah, My trust from my
 youth.
71:6 By Thee I have been supported from the womb, From my
 mother's bowels Thou dost cut me out, In Thee [is] my praise
 continually.
71:7 As a wonder I have been to many, And Thou [art] my strong
 refuge.
71:8 Filled is my mouth [with] Thy praise, All the day [with]
 Thy beauty.
71:9 Cast me not off at the time of old age, According to the
 consumption of my power forsake me not.
71:10 For mine enemies have spoken against me, And those
 watching my soul have taken counsel together,
71:11 Saying, `God hath forsaken him, Pursue and catch him, for
 there is no deliverer.'
71:12 O God, be not far from me, O my God, for my help make
 haste.
71:13 They are ashamed, they are consumed, Who are opposing my
 soul, They are covered [with] reproach and blushing, Who are
 seeking my evil,
71:14 And I continually do wait with hope, And have added unto
 all Thy praise.
71:15 My mouth recounteth Thy righteousness, All the day Thy
 salvation, For I have not known the numbers.
71:16 I come in the might of the Lord Jehovah, I mention Thy
 righteousness -- Thine only.
71:17 God, Thou hast taught me from my youth, And hitherto I
 declare Thy wonders.
71:18 And also unto old age and grey hairs, O God, forsake me
 not, Till I declare Thy strength to a generation, To every one
 that cometh Thy might.
71:19 And Thy righteousness, O God, [is] unto the heights,
 Because Thou hast done great things, O God, who [is] like Thee?
71:20 Because Thou hast showed me many and sad distresses, Thou
 turnest back -- Thou revivest me, And from the depths of the
 earth, Thou turnest back -- Thou bringest me up.
71:21 Thou dost increase my greatness, And Thou surroundest --
 Thou comfortest me,
71:22 I also thank Thee with a vessel of psaltery, Thy truth, O
 my God, I sing to Thee with a harp, O Holy One of Israel,
71:23 My lips cry aloud when I sing praise to Thee, And my soul
 that Thou hast redeemed,
71:24 My tongue also all the day uttereth Thy righteousness,
 Because ashamed -- because confounded, Have been those seeking
 my evil!
72:1 By Solomon. O God, Thy judgments to the king give, And Thy
 righteousness to the king's son.
72:2 He judgeth Thy people with righteousness, And Thy poor with
 judgment.
72:3 The mountains bear peace to the people, And the heights by
 righteousness.
72:4 He judgeth the poor of the people, Giveth deliverance to
 the sons of the needy, And bruiseth the oppressor.
72:5 They fear Thee with the sun, and before the moon,
 Generation -- generations.
72:6 He cometh down as rain on mown grass, As showers --
 sprinkling the earth.
72:7 Flourish in his days doth the righteous, And abundance of
 peace till the moon is not.
72:8 And he ruleth from sea unto sea, And from the river unto
 the ends of earth.
72:9 Before him bow do the inhabitants of the dry places, And
 his enemies lick the dust.
72:10 Kings of Tarshish and of the isles send back a present.
 Kings of Sheba and Seba a reward bring near.
72:11 And all kings do bow themselves to him, All nations do
 serve him,
72:12 For he delivereth the needy who crieth, And the poor when
 he hath no helper,
72:13 He hath pity on the poor and needy, And the souls of the
 needy he saveth,
72:14 From fraud and from violence he redeemeth their soul, And
 precious is their blood in his eyes.
72:15 And he liveth, and giveth to him of the gold of Sheba, And
 prayeth for him continually, All the day he doth bless him.
72:16 There is a handful of corn in the earth, On the top of
 mountains, Shake like Lebanon doth its fruit, And they flourish
 out of the city as the herb of the earth.
72:17 His name is to the age, Before the sun is his name
 continued, And they bless themselves in him, All nations do
 pronounce him happy.
72:18 Blessed is Jehovah God, God of Israel, He alone is doing
 wonders,
72:19 And blessed [is] the Name of His honour to the age, And
 the whole earth is filled [with] His honour. Amen, and amen!
72:20 The prayers of David son of Jesse have been ended.
73:1 A Psalm of Asaph. Only -- good to Israel [is] God, to the
 clean of heart. And I -- as a little thing, My feet have been
 turned aside,
73:2 As nothing, have my steps slipped, For I have been envious
 of the boastful,
73:3 The peace of the wicked I see, That there are no bands at
 their death,
73:4 And their might [is] firm.
73:5 In the misery of mortals they are not, And with common men
 they are not plagued.
73:6 Therefore hath pride encircled them, Violence covereth them
 as a dress.
73:7 Their eye hath come out from fat. The imaginations of the
 heart transgressed;
73:8 They do corruptly, And they speak in the wickedness of
 oppression, From on high they speak.
73:9 They have set in the heavens their mouth, And their tongue
 walketh in the earth.
73:10 Therefore do His people return hither, And waters of
 fulness are wrung out to them.
73:11 And they have said, `How hath God known? And is there
 knowledge in the Most High?'
73:12 Lo, these [are] the wicked and easy ones of the age, They
 have increased strength.
73:13 Only -- a vain thing! I have purified my heart, And I wash
 in innocency my hands,
73:14 And I am plagued all the day, And my reproof [is] every
 morning.
73:15 If I have said, `I recount thus,' Lo, a generation of Thy
 sons I have deceived.
73:16 And I think to know this, Perverseness it [is] in mine
 eyes,
73:17 Till I come in to the sanctuaries of God, I attend to
 their latter end.
73:18 Only, in slippery places Thou dost set them, Thou hast
 caused them to fall to desolations.
73:19 How have they become a desolation as in a moment, They
 have been ended -- consumed from terrors.
73:20 As a dream from awakening, O Lord, In awaking, their image
 Thou despisest.
73:21 For my heart doth show itself violent, And my reins prick
 themselves,
73:22 And I am brutish, and do not know. A beast I have been
 with Thee.
73:23 And I [am] continually with Thee, Thou hast laid hold on
 my right hand.
73:24 With Thy counsel Thou dost lead me, And after honour dost
 receive me.
73:25 Whom have I in the heavens? And with Thee none I have
 desired in earth.
73:26 Consumed hath been my flesh and my heart, The rock of my
 heart and my portion [is] God to the age.
73:27 For, lo, those far from Thee do perish, Thou hast cut off
 every one, Who is going a whoring from Thee.
73:28 And I -- nearness of God to me [is] good, I have placed in
 the Lord Jehovah my refuge, To recount all Thy works!
74:1 An Instruction of Asaph. Why, O God, hast Thou cast off for
 ever? Thine anger smoketh against the flock of Thy pasture.
74:2 Remember Thy company. Thou didst purchase of old, Thou
 didst redeem the rod of Thy inheritance, This mount Zion --
 Thou didst dwell in it.
74:3 Lift up Thy steps to the perpetual desolations, Everything
 the enemy did wickedly in the sanctuary.
74:4 Roared have thine adversaries, In the midst of Thy
 meeting-places, They have set their ensigns as ensigns.
74:5 He is known as one bringing in on high Against a thicket of
 wood -- axes.
74:6 And now, its carvings together With axe and hatchet they
 break down,
74:7 They have sent into fire Thy sanctuary, to the earth they
 polluted the tabernacle of Thy name,
74:8 They said in their hearts, `Let us oppress them together,'
 They did burn all the meeting-places of God in the land.
74:9 Our ensigns we have not seen, There is no more a prophet,
 Nor with us is one knowing how long.
74:10 Till when, O God, doth an adversary reproach? Doth an
 enemy despise thy name for ever?
74:11 Why dost Thou turn back Thy hand, Even Thy right hand?
 From the midst of Thy bosom remove [it].
74:12 And God [is] my king of old, Working salvation in the
 midst of the earth.
74:13 Thou hast broken by Thy strength a sea-[monster], Thou
 hast shivered Heads of dragons by the waters,
74:14 Thou hast broken the heads of leviathan, Thou makest him
 food, For the people of the dry places.
74:15 Thou hast cleaved a fountain and a stream, Thou hast dried
 up perennial flowings.
74:16 Thine [is] the day, also Thine [is] the night, Thou hast
 prepared a light giver -- the sun.
74:17 Thou hast set up all the borders of earth, Summer and
 winter Thou hast formed them.
74:18 Remember this -- an enemy reproached Jehovah, And a
 foolish people have despised Thy name.
74:19 Give not up to a company, The soul of Thy turtle-dove, The
 company of Thy poor ones forget not for ever.
74:20 Look attentively to the covenant, For the dark places of
 earth, Have been full of habitations of violence.
74:21 Let not the oppressed turn back ashamed, Let the poor and
 needy praise Thy name,
74:22 Arise, O God, plead Thy plea, Remember Thy reproach from a
 fool all the day.
74:23 Forget not the voice of Thine adversaries, The noise of
 Thy withstanders is going up continually!
75:1 To the Overseer. -- `Destroy not.' -- A Psalm of Asaph. --
 A Song. We have given thanks to Thee, O God, We have given
 thanks, and near [is] Thy name, They have recounted Thy
 wonders.
75:2 When I receive an appointment, I -- I do judge uprightly.
75:3 Melted is the earth and all its inhabitants, I -- I have
 pondered its pillars. Selah.
75:4 I have said to the boastful, `Be not boastful,' And to the
 wicked, `Raise not up a horn.'
75:5 Raise not up on high your horn, (Ye speak with a stiff
 neck.)
75:6 For not from the east, or from the west, Nor from the
 wilderness -- [is] elevation.
75:7 But God [is] judge, This He maketh low -- and this He
 lifteth up.
75:8 For a cup [is] in the hand of Jehovah, And the wine hath
 foamed, It is full of mixture, and He poureth out of it, Only
 its dregs wring out, and drink, Do all the wicked of the earth,
75:9 And I -- I declare [it] to the age, I sing praise to the
 God of Jacob.
75:10 And all horns of the wicked I cut off, Exalted are the
 horns of the righteous!
76:1 To the Overseer with stringed instruments. -- A Psalm of
 Asaph. -- A Song. In Judah [is] God known, in Israel His name
 [is] great.
76:2 And His tabernacle is in Salem, And His habitation in Zion.
76:3 There he hath shivered arrows of a bow, Shield, and sword,
 and battle. Selah.
76:4 Bright [art] Thou, honourable above hills of prey.
76:5 Spoiled themselves have the mighty of heart, They have
 slept their sleep, And none of the men of might found their
 hands.
76:6 From Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, Both rider and horse have
 been fast asleep.
76:7 Thou, fearful [art] Thou, And who doth stand before Thee,
 Since Thou hast been angry!
76:8 From heaven Thou hast sounded judgment, Earth hath feared,
 and hath been still,
76:9 In the rising of God to judgment, To save all the humble of
 earth. Selah.
76:10 For the fierceness of man praiseth Thee, The remnant of
 fierceness Thou girdest on.
76:11 Vow and complete to Jehovah your God, All ye surrounding
 him. They bring presents to the Fearful One.
76:12 He doth gather the spirit of leaders, Fearful to the kings
 of earth!
77:1 To the Overseer, for Jeduthun. -- A Psalm of Asaph. My
 voice [is] to God, and I cry, my voice [is] to God, And He hath
 given ear unto me.
77:2 In a day of my distress the Lord I sought, My hand by night
 hath been spread out, And it doth not cease, My soul hath
 refused to be comforted.
77:3 I remember God, and make a noise, I meditate, and feeble is
 my spirit. Selah.
77:4 Thou hast taken hold of the watches of mine eyes, I have
 been moved, and I speak not.
77:5 I have reckoned the days of old, The years of the ages.
77:6 I remember my music in the night, With my heart I meditate,
 and my spirit doth search diligently:
77:7 To the ages doth the Lord cast off? Doth He add to be
 pleased no more?
77:8 Hath His kindness ceased for ever? The saying failed to all
 generations?
77:9 Hath God forgotten [His] favours? Hath He shut up in anger
 His mercies? Selah.
77:10 And I say: `My weakness is, The changes of the right hand
 of the Most High.'
77:11 I mention the doings of Jah, For I remember of old Thy
 wonders,
77:12 And I have meditated on all Thy working, And I talk
 concerning Thy doings.
77:13 O God, in holiness [is] Thy way, Who [is] a great god like
 God?
77:14 Thou [art] the God doing wonders. Thou hast made known
 among the peoples Thy strength,
77:15 Thou hast redeemed with strength Thy people, The sons of
 Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
77:16 The waters have seen Thee, O God, The waters have seen
 Thee, They are afraid -- also depths are troubled.
77:17 Poured out waters have thick clouds, The skies have given
 forth a noise, Also -- Thine arrows go up and down.
77:18 The voice of Thy thunder [is] in the spheres, Lightnings
 have lightened the world, The earth hath trembled, yea, it
 shaketh.
77:19 In the sea [is] Thy way, And Thy paths [are] in many
 waters, And Thy tracks have not been known.
77:20 Thou hast led as a flock Thy people, By the hand of Moses
 and Aaron!
78:1 An Instruction of Asaph. Give ear, O my people, to my law,
 Incline your ear to sayings of my mouth.
78:2 I open with a simile my mouth, I bring forth hidden things
 of old,
78:3 That we have heard and do know, And our fathers have
 recounted to us.
78:4 We do not hide from their sons, To a later generation
 recounting praises of Jehovah, And His strength, and His
 wonders that He hath done.
78:5 And He raiseth up a testimony in Jacob, And a law hath
 placed in Israel, That He commanded our fathers, To make them
 known to their sons.
78:6 So that a later generation doth know, Sons who are born, do
 rise and recount to their sons,
78:7 And place in God their confidence, And forget not the
 doings of God, But keep His commands.
78:8 And they are not like their fathers, A generation apostate
 and rebellious, A generation! it hath not prepared its heart,
 Nor stedfast with God [is] its spirit.
78:9 Sons of Ephraim -- armed bearers of bow, Have turned in a
 day of conflict.
78:10 They have not kept the covenant of God, And in His law
 they have refused to walk,
78:11 And they forget His doings, And His wonders that He shewed
 them.
78:12 Before their fathers He hath done wonders, In the land of
 Egypt -- the field of Zoan.
78:13 He cleft a sea, and causeth them to pass over, Yea, He
 causeth waters to stand as a heap.
78:14 And leadeth them with a cloud by day, And all the night
 with a light of fire.
78:15 He cleaveth rocks in a wilderness, And giveth drink -- as
 the great deep.
78:16 And bringeth out streams from a rock, And causeth waters
 to come down as rivers.
78:17 And they add still to sin against Him, To provoke the Most
 High in the dry place.
78:18 And they try God in their heart, To ask food for their
 lust.
78:19 And they speak against God -- they said: `Is God able to
 array a table in a wilderness?'
78:20 Lo, He hath smitten a rock, And waters flow, yea, streams
 overflow. `Also -- bread [is] He able to give? Doth He prepare
 flesh for His people?'
78:21 Therefore hath Jehovah heard, And He sheweth Himself
 wroth, And fire hath been kindled against Jacob, And anger also
 hath gone up against Israel,
78:22 For they have not believed in God, Nor have they trusted
 in His salvation.
78:23 And He commandeth clouds from above, Yea, doors of the
 heavens He hath opened.
78:24 And He raineth on them manna to eat, Yea, corn of heaven
 He hath given to them.
78:25 Food of the mighty hath each eaten, Venison He sent to
 them to satiety.
78:26 He causeth an east wind to journey in the heavens, And
 leadeth by His strength a south wind,
78:27 And He raineth on them flesh as dust, And as sand of the
 seas -- winged fowl,
78:28 And causeth [it] to fall in the midst of His camp, Round
 about His tabernacles.
78:29 And they eat, and are greatly satisfied, And their desire
 He bringeth to them.
78:30 They have not been estranged from their desire, Yet [is]
 their food in their mouth,
78:31 And the anger of God hath gone up against them, And He
 slayeth among their fat ones, And youths of Israel He caused to
 bend.
78:32 With all this they have sinned again, And have not
 believed in His wonders.
78:33 And He consumeth in vanity their days, And their years in
 trouble.
78:34 If He slew them, then they sought Him, And turned back,
 and sought God earnestly,
78:35 And they remember that God [is] their rock, And God Most
 High their redeemer.
78:36 And -- they deceive Him with their mouth, And with their
 tongue do lie to Him,
78:37 And their heart hath not been right with Him, And they
 have not been stedfast in His covenant.
78:38 And He -- the Merciful One, Pardoneth iniquity, and
 destroyeth not, And hath often turned back His anger, And
 waketh not up all His fury.
78:39 And He remembereth that they [are] flesh, A wind going on
 -- and it returneth not.
78:40 How often do they provoke Him in the wilderness, Grieve
 Him in the desolate place?
78:41 Yea, they turn back, and try God, And the Holy One of
 Israel have limited.
78:42 They have not remembered His hand The day He ransomed them
 from the adversary.
78:43 When He set His signs in Egypt, And His wonders in the
 field of Zoan,
78:44 And He turneth to blood their streams, And their floods
 they drink not.
78:45 He sendeth among them the beetle, and it consumeth them,
 And the frog, and it destroyeth them,
78:46 And giveth to the caterpillar their increase, And their
 labour to the locust.
78:47 He destroyeth with hail their vine, And their sycamores
 with frost,
78:48 And delivereth up to the hail their beasts, And their
 cattle to the burning flames.
78:49 He sendeth on them the fury of His anger, Wrath, and
 indignation, and distress -- A discharge of evil messengers.
78:50 He pondereth a path for His anger, He kept not back their
 soul from death, Yea, their life to the pestilence He delivered
 up.
78:51 And He smiteth every first-born in Egypt, The first-fruit
 of the strong in tents of Ham.
78:52 And causeth His people to journey as a flock, And guideth
 them as a drove in a wilderness,
78:53 And He leadeth them confidently, And they have not been
 afraid, And their enemies hath the sea covered.
78:54 And He bringeth them in unto the border of His sanctuary,
 This mountain His right hand had got,
78:55 And casteth out nations from before them, And causeth them
 to fall in the line of inheritance, And causeth the tribes of
 Israel to dwell in their tents,
78:56 And they tempt and provoke God Most High, And His
 testimonies have not kept.
78:57 And they turn back, And deal treacherously like their
 fathers, They have been turned like a deceitful bow,
78:58 And make Him angry with their high places, And with their
 graven images make Him zealous,
78:59 God hath heard, and sheweth Himself wroth. And kicketh
 exceedingly against Israel.
78:60 And He leaveth the tabernacle of Shiloh, The tent He had
 placed among men,
78:61 And He giveth His strength to captivity, And His beauty
 into the hand of an adversary,
78:62 And delivereth up to the sword His people, And with His
 inheritance shewed Himself angry.
78:63 His young men hath fire consumed, And His virgins have not
 been praised.
78:64 His priests by the sword have fallen, And their widows
 weep not.
78:65 And the Lord waketh as a sleeper, As a mighty one crying
 aloud from wine.
78:66 And He smiteth His adversaries backward, A reproach
 age-during He hath put on them,
78:67 And He kicketh against the tent of Joseph, And on the
 tribe of Ephraim hath not fixed.
78:68 And He chooseth the tribe of Judah, With mount Zion that
 He loved,
78:69 And buildeth His sanctuary as a high place, Like the
 earth, He founded it to the age.
78:70 And He fixeth on David His servant, And taketh him from
 the folds of a flock,
78:71 From behind suckling ones He hath brought him in, To rule
 over Jacob His people, And over Israel His inheritance.
78:72 And he ruleth them according to the integrity of his
 heart, And by the skilfulness of his hands leadeth them!
79:1 A Psalm of Asaph. O God, nations have come into Thy
 inheritance, They have defiled Thy holy temple, They made
 Jerusalem become heaps,
79:2 They gave the dead bodies of Thy servants Food for the
 fowls of the heavens, The flesh of Thy saints For the wild
 beast of the earth.
79:3 They have shed their blood As water round about Jerusalem,
 And there is none burying.
79:4 We have been a reproach to our neighbours, A scorn and a
 derision to our surrounders.
79:5 Till when, O Jehovah? art Thou angry for ever? Thy jealousy
 doth burn as fire.
79:6 Pour Thy fury on the nations who have not known Thee, And
 on kingdoms that have not called in Thy name.
79:7 For [one] hath devoured Jacob, And his habitation they have
 made desolate.
79:8 Remember not for us the iniquities of forefathers, Haste,
 let Thy mercies go before us, For we have been very weak.
79:9 Help us, O God of our salvation, Because of the honour of
 Thy name, And deliver us, and cover over our sins, For Thy
 name's sake.
79:10 Why do the nations say, `Where [is] their God?' Let be
 known among the nations before our eyes, The vengeance of the
 blood of Thy servants that is shed.
79:11 Let the groaning of the prisoner come in before Thee,
 According to the greatness of Thine arm, Leave Thou the sons of
 death.
79:12 And turn Thou back to our neighbours, Sevenfold unto their
 bosom, their reproach, Wherewith they reproached Thee, O Lord.
79:13 And we, Thy people, and the flock of Thy pasture, We give
 thanks to Thee to the age, To all generations we recount Thy
 praise!
80:1 To the Overseer. -- `On the Lilies.' A testimony of Asaph.
 -- A Psalm. Shepherd of Israel, give ear, Leading Joseph as a
 flock, Inhabiting the cherubs -- shine forth,
80:2 Before Ephraim, and Benjamin, and Manasseh, Wake up Thy
 might, and come for our salvation.
80:3 O God, cause us to turn back, And cause Thy face to shine,
 and we are saved.
80:4 Jehovah, God of Hosts, till when? Thou hast burned against
 the prayer of Thy people.
80:5 Thou hast caused them to eat bread of tears, And causest
 them to drink With tears a third time.
80:6 Thou makest us a strife to our neighbours, And our enemies
 mock at it.
80:7 God of Hosts, turn us back, And cause Thy face to shine,
 and we are saved.
80:8 A vine out of Egypt Thou dost bring, Thou dost cast out
 nations, and plantest it.
80:9 Thou hast looked before it, and dost root it, And it
 filleth the land,
80:10 Covered have been hills [with] its shadow, And its boughs
 [are] cedars of God.
80:11 It sendeth forth its branches unto the sea, And unto the
 river its sucklings.
80:12 Why hast Thou broken down its hedges, And all passing by
 the way have plucked it?
80:13 A boar out of the forest doth waste it, And a wild beast
 of the fields consumeth it.
80:14 God of Hosts, turn back, we beseech Thee, Look from
 heaven, and see, and inspect this vine,
80:15 And the root that Thy right hand planted, And the branch
 Thou madest strong for Thee,
80:16 Burnt with fire -- cut down, From the rebuke of Thy face
 they perish.
80:17 Let Thy hand be on the man of Thy right hand, On the son
 of man Thou hast strengthened for Thyself.
80:18 And we do not go back from Thee, Thou dost revive us, and
 in Thy name we call.
80:19 O Jehovah, God of Hosts, turn us back, Cause Thy face to
 shine, and we are saved!
81:1 To the Overseer. -- `On the Gittith.' By Asaph. Cry aloud
 to God our strength, Shout to the God of Jacob.
81:2 Lift up a song, and give out a timbrel, A pleasant harp
 with psaltery.
81:3 Blow in the month a trumpet, In the new moon, at the day of
 our festival,
81:4 For a statute to Israel it [is], An ordinance of the God of
 Jacob.
81:5 A testimony on Joseph He hath placed it, In his going forth
 over the land of Egypt. A lip, I have not known -- I hear.
81:6 From the burden his shoulder I turned aside, His hands from
 the basket pass over.
81:7 In distress thou hast called and I deliver thee, I answer
 thee in the secret place of thunder, I try thee by the waters
 of Meribah. Selah.
81:8 Hear, O My people, and I testify to thee, O Israel, if thou
 dost hearken to me:
81:9 There is not in thee a strange god, And thou bowest not
 thyself to a strange god.
81:10 I [am] Jehovah thy God, Who bringeth thee up out of the
 land of Egypt. Enlarge thy mouth, and I fill it.
81:11 But, My people hearkened not to My voice, And Israel hath
 not consented to Me.
81:12 And I send them away in the enmity of their heart, They
 walk in their own counsels.
81:13 O that My people were hearkening to Me, Israel in My ways
 would walk.
81:14 As a little thing their enemies I cause to bow, And
 against their adversaries I turn back My hand,
81:15 Those hating Jehovah feign obedience to Him, But their
 time is -- to the age.
81:16 He causeth him to eat of the fat of wheat, And [with]
 honey from a rock I satisfy thee!
82:1 -- A Psalm of Asaph. God hath stood in the company of God,
 In the midst God doth judge.
82:2 Till when do ye judge perversely? And the face of the
 wicked lift up? Selah.
82:3 Judge ye the weak and fatherless, The afflicted and the
 poor declare righteous.
82:4 Let the weak and needy escape, From the hand of the wicked
 deliver them.
82:5 They knew not, nor do they understand, In darkness they
 walk habitually, Moved are all the foundations of earth.
82:6 I -- I have said, `Gods ye [are], And sons of the Most High
 -- all of you,
82:7 But as man ye die, and as one of the heads ye fall,
82:8 Rise, O God, judge the earth, For Thou hast inheritance
 among all the nations!
83:1 A Song, -- A Psalm of Asaph. O God, let there be no silence
 to Thee, Be not silent, nor be quiet, O God.
83:2 For, lo, Thine enemies do roar, And those hating Thee have
 lifted up the head,
83:3 Against Thy people they take crafty counsel, And consult
 against Thy hidden ones.
83:4 They have said, `Come, And we cut them off from [being] a
 nation, And the name of Israel is not remembered any more.'
83:5 For they consulted in heart together, Against Thee a
 covenant they make,
83:6 Tents of Edom, and Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagarenes,
83:7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia with inhabitants of
 Tyre,
83:8 Asshur also is joined with them, They have been an arm to
 sons of Lot. Selah.
83:9 Do to them as [to] Midian, As [to] Sisera, as [to] Jabin,
 at the stream Kishon.
83:10 They were destroyed at Endor, They were dung for the
 ground!
83:11 Make their nobles as Oreb and as Zeeb, And as Zebah and
 Zalmunna all their princes,
83:12 Who have said, `Let us occupy for ourselves The comely
 places of God.'
83:13 O my God, make them as a rolling thing, As stubble before
 wind.
83:14 As a fire doth burn a forest, And as a flame setteth hills
 on fire,
83:15 So dost Thou pursue them with Thy whirlwind, And with Thy
 hurricane troublest them.
83:16 Fill their faces [with] shame, And they seek Thy name, O
 Jehovah.
83:17 They are ashamed and troubled for ever, Yea, they are
 confounded and lost.
83:18 And they know that Thou -- (Thy name [is] Jehovah -- by
 Thyself,) [Art] the Most High over all the earth!
84:1 To the Overseer. -- `On the Gittith By sons of Korah.' -- A
 Psalm. How beloved Thy tabernacles, Jehovah of Hosts!
84:2 My soul desired, yea, it hath also been consumed, For the
 courts of Jehovah, My heart and my flesh cry aloud unto the
 living God,
84:3 (Even a sparrow hath found a house, And a swallow a nest
 for herself, Where she hath placed her brood,) Thine altars, O
 Jehovah of Hosts, My king and my God.
84:4 O the happiness of those inhabiting Thy house, Yet do they
 praise Thee. Selah.
84:5 O the happiness of a man whose strength is in Thee,
 Highways [are] in their heart.
84:6 Those passing through a valley of weeping, A fountain do
 make it, Blessings also cover the director.
84:7 They go from strength unto strength, He appeareth unto God
 in Zion.
84:8 O Jehovah, God of Hosts, hear my prayer, Give ear, O God of
 Jacob. Selah.
84:9 Our shield, see, O God, And behold the face of Thine
 anointed,
84:10 For good [is] a day in Thy courts, O Teacher! I have
 chosen rather to be at the threshold, In the house of my God,
 Than to dwell in tents of wickedness.
84:11 For a sun and a shield [is] Jehovah God, Grace and honour
 doth Jehovah give. He withholdeth not good To those walking in
 uprightness.
84:12 Jehovah of Hosts! O the happiness of a man trusting in
 Thee.
85:1 To the Overseer. -- By sons of Korah. A Psalm. Thou hast
 accepted, O Jehovah, Thy land, Thou hast turned [to] the
 captivity of Jacob.
85:2 Thou hast borne away the iniquity of Thy people, Thou hast
 covered all their sin. Selah.
85:3 Thou hast gathered up all Thy wrath, Thou hast turned back
 from the fierceness of Thine anger.
85:4 Turn back [to] us, O God of our salvation, And make void
 Thine anger with us.
85:5 To the age art Thou angry against us? Dost Thou draw out
 Thine anger To generation and generation?
85:6 Dost Thou not turn back? Thou revivest us, And Thy people
 do rejoice in Thee.
85:7 Show us, O Jehovah, thy kindness, And Thy salvation Thou
 dost give to us.
85:8 I hear what God Jehovah speaketh, For He speaketh peace
 unto His people, And unto His saints, and they turn not back to
 folly.
85:9 Only, near to those fearing Him [is] His salvation, That
 honour may dwell in our land.
85:10 Kindness and truth have met, Righteousness and peace have
 kissed,
85:11 Truth from the earth springeth up, And righteousness from
 heaven looketh out,
85:12 Jehovah also giveth that which is good, And our land doth
 give its increase.
85:13 Righteousness before Him goeth, And maketh His footsteps
 for a way!
86:1 A Prayer of David. Incline, O Jehovah, Thine ear, Answer
 me, for I [am] poor and needy.
86:2 Keep my soul, for I [am] pious, Save Thy servant -- who is
 trusting to Thee, O Thou, my God.
86:3 Favour me, O Lord, for to Thee I call all the day.
86:4 Rejoice the soul of Thy servant, For unto Thee, O Lord, my
 soul I lift up.
86:5 For Thou, Lord, [art] good and forgiving. And abundant in
 kindness to all calling Thee.
86:6 Hear, O Jehovah, my prayer, And attend to the voice of my
 supplications.
86:7 In a day of my distress I call Thee, For Thou dost answer
 me.
86:8 There is none like Thee among the gods, O Lord, And like
 Thy works there are none.
86:9 All nations that Thou hast made Come and bow themselves
 before Thee, O Lord, And give honour to Thy name.
86:10 For great [art] Thou, and doing wonders, Thou [art] God
 Thyself alone.
86:11 Show me, O Jehovah, Thy way, I walk in Thy truth, My heart
 doth rejoice to fear Thy name.
86:12 I confess Thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And I
 honour Thy name to the age.
86:13 For Thy kindness [is] great toward me, And Thou hast
 delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol.
86:14 O God, the proud have risen up against me, And a company
 of the terrible sought my soul, And have not placed Thee before
 them,
86:15 And Thou, O Lord, [art] God, merciful and gracious, Slow
 to anger, and abundant in kindness and truth.
86:16 Look unto me, and favour me, Give Thy strength to Thy
 servant, And give salvation to a son of Thine handmaid.
86:17 Do with me a sign for good, And those hating me see and
 are ashamed, For Thou, O Jehovah, hast helped me, Yea, Thou
 hast comforted me!
87:1 By sons of Korah. -- A Psalm, a song. His foundation [is]
 in holy mountains.
87:2 Jehovah is loving the gates of Zion Above all the
 tabernacles of Jacob.
87:3 Honourable things are spoken in Thee, O city of God. Selah.
87:4 I mention Rahab and Babel to those knowing Me, Lo,
 Philistia, and Tyre, with Cush! This [one] was born there.
87:5 And of Zion it is said: Each one was born in her, And He,
 the Most High, doth establish her.
87:6 Jehovah doth recount in the describing of the peoples,
 `This [one] was born there.' Selah.
87:7 Singers also as players on instruments, All my fountains
 [are] in Thee!
88:1 A Song, a Psalm, by sons of Korah, to the Overseer,
 `Concerning the Sickness of Afflictions.' -- An instruction, by
 Heman the Ezrahite. O Jehovah, God of my salvation, Daily I
 have cried, nightly before Thee,
88:2 My prayer cometh in before Thee, Incline Thine ear to my
 loud cry,
88:3 For my soul hath been full of evils, And my life hath come
 to Sheol.
88:4 I have been reckoned with those going down [to] the pit, I
 have been as a man without strength.
88:5 Among the dead -- free, As pierced ones lying in the grave,
 Whom Thou hast not remembered any more, Yea, they by Thy hand
 have been cut off.
88:6 Thou hast put me in the lowest pit, In dark places, in
 depths.
88:7 Upon me hath Thy fury lain, And [with] all Thy breakers
 Thou hast afflicted. Selah.
88:8 Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me, Thou hast made
 me an abomination to them, Shut up -- I go not forth.
88:9 Mine eye hath grieved because of affliction, I called Thee,
 O Jehovah, all the day, I have spread out unto Thee my hands.
88:10 To the dead dost Thou do wonders? Do Rephaim rise? do they
 thank Thee? Selah.
88:11 Is Thy kindness recounted in the grave? Thy faithfulness
 in destruction?
88:12 Are Thy wonders known in the darkness? And Thy
 righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
88:13 And I, unto Thee, O Jehovah, I have cried, And in the
 morning doth my prayer come before Thee.
88:14 Why, O Jehovah, castest Thou off my soul? Thou hidest Thy
 face from me.
88:15 I [am] afflicted, and expiring from youth, I have borne
 Thy terrors -- I pine away.
88:16 Over me hath Thy wrath passed, Thy terrors have cut me
 off,
88:17 They have surrounded me as waters all the day, They have
 gone round against me together,
88:18 Thou hast put far from me lover and friend, Mine
 acquaintance [is] the place of darkness!
89:1 An instruction, by Ethan the Ezrahite. Of the kind acts of
 Jehovah, to the age I sing, To all generations I make known Thy
 faithfulness with my mouth,
89:2 For I said, `To the age is kindness built, The heavens!
 Thou dost establish Thy faithfulness in them.'
89:3 I have made a covenant for My chosen, I have sworn to David
 My servant:
89:4 `Even to the age do I establish thy seed, And have built to
 generation and generation thy throne. Selah.
89:5 and the heavens confess Thy wonders, O Jehovah, Thy
 faithfulness also [is] in an assembly of holy ones.
89:6 For who in the sky, Compareth himself to Jehovah? Is like
 to Jehovah among sons of the mighty?
89:7 God is very terrible, In the secret counsel of His holy
 ones, And fearful over all surrounding Him.
89:8 O Jehovah, God of Hosts, Who [is] like Thee -- a strong
 Jah? And Thy faithfulness [is] round about Thee.
89:9 Thou [art] ruler over the pride of the sea, In the lifting
 up of its billows Thou dost restrain them.
89:10 Thou hast bruised Rahab, as one wounded. With the arm of
 Thy strength Thou hast scattered Thine enemies.
89:11 Thine [are] the heavens -- the earth also [is] Thine, The
 habitable world and its fulness, Thou hast founded them.
89:12 North and south Thou hast appointed them, Tabor and Hermon
 in Thy name do sing.
89:13 Thou hast an arm with might, Strong is Thy hand -- high
 Thy right hand.
89:14 Righteousness and judgment [Are] the fixed place of Thy
 throne, Kindness and truth go before Thy face.
89:15 O the happiness of the people knowing the shout, O
 Jehovah, in the light of Thy face they walk habitually.
89:16 In Thy name they rejoice all the day, And in Thy
 righteousness they are exalted,
89:17 For the beauty of their strength [art] Thou, And in Thy
 good will is our horn exalted,
89:18 For of Jehovah [is] our shield, And of the Holy One of
 Israel our king.
89:19 Then Thou hast spoken in vision, To Thy saint, yea, Thou
 sayest, I have placed help upon a mighty one, Exalted a chosen
 one out of the people,
89:20 I have found David My servant, With My holy oil I have
 anointed him.
89:21 With whom My hand is established, My arm also doth
 strengthen him.
89:22 An enemy exacteth not upon him, And a son of perverseness
 afflicteth him not.
89:23 And I have beaten down before him his adversaries, And
 those hating him I plague,
89:24 And My faithfulness and kindness [are] with him, And in My
 name is his horn exalted.
89:25 And I have set on the sea his hand, And on the rivers his
 right hand.
89:26 He proclaimeth me: `Thou [art] my Father, My God, and the
 rock of my salvation.'
89:27 I also first-born do appoint him, Highest of the kings of
 the earth.
89:28 To the age I keep for him My kindness, And My covenant
 [is] stedfast with him.
89:29 And I have set his seed for ever, And his throne as the
 days of the heavens.
89:30 If his sons forsake My law, And in My judgments do not
 walk;
89:31 If My statutes they pollute, And My commands do not keep,
89:32 I have looked after with a rod their transgression, And
 with strokes their iniquity,
89:33 And My kindness I break not from him, Nor do I deal
 falsely in My faithfulness.
89:34 I profane not My covenant, And that which is going forth
 from My lips I change not.
89:35 Once I have sworn by My holiness, I lie not to David,
89:36 His seed is to the age, And his throne [is] as the sun
 before Me,
89:37 As the moon it is established -- to the age, And the
 witness in the sky is stedfast. Selah.
89:38 And Thou, Thou hast cast off, and dost reject, Thou hast
 shown Thyself wroth With Thine anointed,
89:39 Hast rejected the covenant of Thy servant, Thou hast
 polluted to the earth his crown,
89:40 Thou hast broken down all his hedges, Thou hast made his
 fenced places a ruin.
89:41 Spoiled him have all passing by the way, He hath been a
 reproach to his neighbours,
89:42 Thou hast exalted the right hand of his adversaries, Thou
 hast caused all his enemies to rejoice.
89:43 Also -- Thou turnest back the sharpness of his sword, And
 hast not established him in battle,
89:44 Hast caused [him] to cease from his brightness, And his
 throne to the earth hast cast down.
89:45 Thou hast shortened the days of his youth, Hast covered
 him over [with] shame. Selah.
89:46 Till when, O Jehovah, art Thou hidden? For ever doth Thy
 fury burn as fire?
89:47 Remember, I pray Thee, what [is] life-time? Wherefore in
 vain hast Thou created All the sons of men?
89:48 Who [is] the man that liveth, and doth not see death? He
 delivereth his soul from the hand of Sheol. Selah.
89:49 Where [are] Thy former kindnesses, O Lord. Thou hast sworn
 to David in Thy faithfulness,
89:50 Remember, O Lord, the reproach of Thy servants, I have
 borne in my bosom all the strivings of the peoples,
89:51 Wherewith Thine enemies reproached, O Jehovah, Wherewith
 they have reproached The steps of Thine anointed.
89:52 Blessed [is] Jehovah to the age. Amen, and amen!
90:1 A Prayer of Moses, the man of God. Lord, a habitation Thou
 -- Thou hast been, To us -- in generation and generation,
90:2 Before mountains were brought forth, And Thou dost form the
 earth and the world, Even from age unto age Thou [art] God.
90:3 Thou turnest man unto a bruised thing, And sayest, Turn
 back, ye sons of men.
90:4 For a thousand years in Thine eyes [are] as yesterday, For
 it passeth on, yea, a watch by night.
90:5 Thou hast inundated them, they are asleep, In the morning
 as grass he changeth.
90:6 In the morning it flourisheth, and hath changed, At evening
 it is cut down, and hath withered.
90:7 For we were consumed in Thine anger, And in Thy fury we
 have been troubled.
90:8 Thou hast set our iniquities before Thee, Our hidden things
 at the light of Thy face,
90:9 For all our days pined away in Thy wrath, We consumed our
 years as a meditation.
90:10 Days of our years, in them [are] seventy years, And if, by
 reason of might, eighty years, Yet [is] their enlargement
 labour and vanity, For it hath been cut off hastily, and we fly
 away.
90:11 Who knoweth the power of Thine anger? And according to Thy
 fear -- Thy wrath?
90:12 To number our days aright let [us] know, And we bring the
 heart to wisdom.
90:13 Turn back, O Jehovah, till when? And repent concerning Thy
 servants.
90:14 Satisfy us at morn [with] Thy kindness, And we sing and
 rejoice all our days.
90:15 Cause us to rejoice according to the days Wherein Thou
 hast afflicted us, The years we have seen evil.
90:16 Let Thy work appear unto Thy servants, And Thine honour on
 their sons.
90:17 And let the pleasantness of Jehovah our God be upon us,
 And the work of our hands establish on us, Yea, the work of our
 hands establish it!
91:1 He who is dwelling In the secret place of the Most High, In
 the shade of the Mighty lodgeth habitually,
91:2 He is saying of Jehovah, `My refuge, and my bulwark, my God,
 I trust in Him,'
91:3 For He delivereth thee from the snare of a fowler, From a
 calamitous pestilence.
91:4 With His pinion He covereth thee over, And under His wings
 thou dost trust, A shield and buckler [is] His truth.
91:5 Thou art not afraid of fear by night, Of arrow that flieth
 by day,
91:6 Of pestilence in thick darkness that walketh, Of
 destruction that destroyeth at noon,
91:7 There fall at thy side a thousand, And a myriad at thy
 right hand, Unto thee it cometh not nigh.
91:8 But with thine eyes thou lookest, And the reward of the
 wicked thou seest,
91:9 (For Thou, O Jehovah, [art] my refuge,) The Most High thou
 madest thy habitation.
91:10 Evil happeneth not unto thee, And a plague cometh not near
 thy tent,
91:11 For His messengers He chargeth for thee, To keep thee in
 all thy ways,
91:12 On the hands they bear thee up, Lest thou smite against a
 stone thy foot.
91:13 On lion and asp thou treadest, Thou trampest young lion
 and dragon.
91:14 Because in Me he hath delighted, I also deliver him -- I
 set him on high, Because he hath known My name.
91:15 He doth call Me, and I answer him, I [am] with him in
 distress, I deliver him, and honour him.
91:16 With length of days I satisfy him, And I cause him to look
 on My salvation!
92:1 A Psalm. -- A Song for the sabbath-day. Good to give thanks
 to Jehovah, And to sing praises to Thy name, O Most High,
92:2 To declare in the morning Thy kindness, And Thy
 faithfulness in the nights.
92:3 On ten strings and on psaltery, On higgaion, with harp.
92:4 For Thou hast caused me to rejoice, O Jehovah, in Thy work,
 Concerning the works of Thy hands I sing.
92:5 How great have been Thy works, O Jehovah, Very deep have
 been Thy thoughts.
92:6 A brutish man doth not know, And a fool understandeth not
 this; --
92:7 When the wicked flourish as a herb, And blossom do all
 workers of iniquity -- For their being destroyed for ever and
 ever!
92:8 And Thou [art] high to the age, O Jehovah.
92:9 For, lo, Thine enemies, O Jehovah, For, lo, Thine enemies,
 do perish, Separate themselves do all workers of iniquity.
92:10 And Thou exaltest as a reem my horn, I have been anointed
 with fresh oil.
92:11 And mine eye looketh on mine enemies, Of those rising up
 against me, The evil doers, do mine ears hear.
92:12 The righteous as a palm-tree flourisheth, As a cedar in
 Lebanon he groweth.
92:13 Those planted in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of
 our God do flourish.
92:14 Still they bring forth in old age, Fat and flourishing are
 they,
92:15 To declare that upright [is] Jehovah my rock, And there is
 no perverseness in Him!
93:1 Jehovah hath reigned, Excellency He hath put on, Jehovah
 put on strength, He girded Himself, Also -- established is the
 world, unmoved.
93:2 Established is Thy throne since then, From the age Thou
 [art].
93:3 Floods have lifted up, O Jehovah, Floods have lifted up
 their voice, Floods lift up their breakers.
93:4 Than the voices of many mighty waters, Breakers of a sea,
 mighty on high [is] Jehovah,
93:5 Thy testimonies have been very stedfast, To Thy house
 comely [is] holiness, O Jehovah, for length of days!
94:1 God of vengeance -- Jehovah! God of vengeance, shine forth.
94:2 Be lifted up, O Judge of the earth, Send back a recompence
 on the proud.
94:3 Till when [do] the wicked, O Jehovah? Till when do the
 wicked exult?
94:4 They utter -- they speak an old saw, All working iniquity
 do boast themselves.
94:5 Thy people, O Jehovah, they bruise, And Thine inheritance
 they afflict.
94:6 Widow and sojourner they slay, And fatherless ones they
 murder.
94:7 And they say, `Jehovah doth not see, And the God of Jacob
 doth not consider.'
94:8 Consider, ye brutish among the people, And ye foolish, when
 do ye act wisely?
94:9 He who planteth the ear doth He not hear? He who formeth
 the eye doth He not see?
94:10 He who is instructing nations, Doth He not reprove? He who
 is teaching man knowledge [is] Jehovah.
94:11 He knoweth the thoughts of man, that they [are] vanity.
94:12 O the happiness of the man Whom Thou instructest, O Jah,
 And out of Thy law teachest him,
94:13 To give rest to him from days of evil, While a pit is
 digged for the wicked.
94:14 For Jehovah leaveth not His people, And His inheritance
 forsaketh not.
94:15 For to righteousness judgment turneth back, And after it
 all the upright of heart,
94:16 Who riseth up for me with evil doers? Who stationeth
 himself for me with workers of iniquity?
94:17 Unless Jehovah [were] a help to me, My soul had almost
 inhabited silence.
94:18 If I have said, `My foot hath slipped,' Thy kindness, O
 Jehovah, supporteth me.
94:19 In the abundance of my thoughts within me, Thy comforts
 delight my soul.
94:20 Is a throne of mischief joined [with] Thee? A framer of
 perverseness by statute?
94:21 They decree against the soul of the righteous, And
 innocent blood declare wicked.
94:22 And Jehovah is for a high place to me, And my God [is] for
 a rock -- my refuge,
94:23 And turneth back on them their iniquity, And in their
 wickedness cutteth them off; Jehovah our God doth cut them off!
95:1 Come, we sing to Jehovah, We shout to the rock of our
 salvation.
95:2 We come before His face with thanksgiving, With psalms we
 shout to Him.
95:3 For a great God [is] Jehovah, And a great king over all
 gods.
95:4 In whose hand [are] the deep places of earth, And the
 strong places of hills [are] His.
95:5 Whose is the sea, and He made it, And His hands formed the
 dry land.
95:6 Come in, we bow ourselves, and we bend, We kneel before
 Jehovah our Maker.
95:7 For He [is] our God, and we the people of His pasture, And
 the flock of His hand, To-day, if to His voice ye hearken,
95:8 Harden not your heart as [in] Meribah, As [in] the day of
 Massah in the wilderness,
95:9 Where your fathers have tried Me, Have proved Me, yea, have
 seen My work.
95:10 Forty years I am weary of the generation, And I say, `A
 people erring in heart -- they! And they have not known My
 ways:'
95:11 Where I sware in Mine anger, `If they come in unto My rest
 -- !'
96:1 Sing to Jehovah a new song, Sing to Jehovah all the earth.
96:2 Sing to Jehovah, bless His name, Proclaim from day to day
 His salvation.
96:3 Declare among nations His honour, Among all the peoples His
 wonders.
96:4 For great [is] Jehovah, and praised greatly, Fearful He
 [is] over all gods.
96:5 For all the gods of the peoples [are] nought, And Jehovah
 made the heavens.
96:6 Honour and majesty [are] before Him, Strength and beauty in
 His sanctuary.
96:7 Ascribe to Jehovah, O families of the peoples, Ascribe to
 Jehovah honour and strength.
96:8 Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Lift up a
 present and come in to His courts.
96:9 Bow yourselves to Jehovah, In the honour of holiness, Be
 afraid of His presence, all the earth.
96:10 Say among nations, `Jehovah hath reigned, Also --
 established is the world, unmoved, He judgeth the peoples in
 uprightness.'
96:11 The heavens joy, and the earth is joyful, The sea and its
 fulness roar.
96:12 The field exulteth, and all that [is] in it, Then sing do
 all trees of the forest,
96:13 Before Jehovah, for He hath come, For He hath come to
 judge the earth. He judgeth the world in righteousness, And the
 peoples in His faithfulness!
97:1 Jehovah hath reigned, The earth is joyful, many isles
 rejoice.
97:2 Cloud and darkness [are] round about Him, Righteousness and
 judgment the basis of His throne.
97:3 Fire before Him goeth, And burneth round about His
 adversaries.
97:4 Lightened have His lightnings the world, The earth hath
 seen, and is pained.
97:5 Hills, like wax, melted before Jehovah, Before the Lord of
 all the earth.
97:6 The heavens declared His righteousness, And all the peoples
 have seen His honour.
97:7 Ashamed are all servants of a graven image, Those boasting
 themselves in idols, Bow yourselves to him, all ye gods.
97:8 Zion hath heard and rejoiceth, And daughters of Judah are
 joyful, Because of Thy judgments, O Jehovah.
97:9 For Thou, Jehovah, [art] Most High over all the earth,
 Greatly Thou hast been exalted over all gods.
97:10 Ye who love Jehovah, hate evil, He is keeping the souls of
 His saints, From the hand of the wicked he delivereth them.
97:11 Light [is] sown for the righteous, And for the upright of
 heart -- joy.
97:12 Rejoice, ye righteous, in Jehovah, And give thanks at the
 remembrance of his holiness!
98:1 A Psalm. Sing ye to Jehovah a new song, For wonders He hath
 done, Given salvation to Him hath His right hand and His holy
 arm.
98:2 Jehovah hath made known His salvation, Before the eyes of
 the nations, He hath revealed His righteousness,
98:3 He hath remembered His kindness, And His faithfulness to
 the house of Israel, All ends of earth have seen the salvation
 of our God.
98:4 Shout to Jehovah, all the earth, Break forth, and cry
 aloud, and sing.
98:5 Sing to Jehovah with harp, With harp, and voice of praise,
98:6 With trumpets, and voice of a cornet, Shout ye before the
 king Jehovah.
98:7 Roar doth the sea and its fulness, The world and the
 inhabitants in it.
98:8 Floods clap hand, together hills cry aloud,
98:9 Before Jehovah, For He hath come to judge the earth, He
 judgeth the world in righteousness, And the people in
 uprightness!
99:1 Jehovah hath reigned, peoples tremble, The Inhabitant of
 the cherubs, the earth shaketh.
99:2 Jehovah in Zion [is] great, And high He [is] over all the
 peoples.
99:3 They praise Thy name, `Great, and fearful, holy [it] is.'
99:4 And the strength of the king Hath loved judgment, Thou --
 Thou hast established uprightness; Judgment and righteousness
 in Jacob, Thou -- Thou hast done.
99:5 Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His
 footstool, holy [is] He.
99:6 Moses and Aaron among His priests, And Samuel among those
 proclaiming His name. They are calling unto Jehovah, And He
 doth answer them.
99:7 In a pillar of cloud He speaketh unto them, They have kept
 His testimonies, And the statute He hath given to them.
99:8 O Jehovah, our God, Thou hast afflicted them, A God
 forgiving Thou hast been to them, And taking vengeance on their
 actions.
99:9 Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His holy
 hill, For holy [is] Jehovah our God!
100:1 A Psalm of Thanksgiving. Shout to Jehovah, all the earth.
100:2 Serve Jehovah with joy, come before him with singing.
100:3 Know that Jehovah He [is] God, He made us, and we are His,
 His people -- and the flock of His pasture.
100:4 Enter ye His gates with thanksgiving, His courts with
 praise, Give ye thanks to Him, bless ye His Name.
100:5 For good [is] Jehovah, to the age His kindness, And to
 generation and generation His faithfulness!
101:1 A Psalm of David. Kindness and judgment I sing, To Thee, O
 Jehovah, I sing praise.
101:2 I act wisely in a perfect way, When dost Thou come in unto
 me? I walk habitually in the integrity of my heart, In the
 midst of my house.
101:3 I set not before mine eyes a worthless thing, The work of
 those turning aside I have hated, It adhereth not to me.
101:4 A perverse heart turneth aside from me, Wickedness I know
 not.
101:5 Whoso slandereth in secret his neighbour, Him I cut off,
 The high of eyes and proud of heart, him I endure not.
101:6 Mine eyes are on the faithful of the land, To dwell with
 me, Whoso is walking in a perfect way, he serveth me.
101:7 He dwelleth not in my house who is working deceit, Whoso
 is speaking lies Is not established before mine eyes.
101:8 At morning I cut off all the wicked of the land, To cut
 off from the city of Jehovah All the workers of iniquity!
102:1 A Prayer of the afflicted when he is feeble, and before
 Jehovah poureth out his plaint. O Jehovah, hear my prayer, yea,
 my cry to Thee cometh.
102:2 Hide not Thou Thy face from me, In a day of mine
 adversity, Incline unto me Thine ear, In the day I call, haste,
 answer me.
102:3 For consumed in smoke have been my days, And my bones as a
 fire-brand have burned.
102:4 Smitten as the herb, and withered, is my heart, For I have
 forgotten to eat my bread.
102:5 From the voice of my sighing Hath my bone cleaved to my
 flesh.
102:6 I have been like to a pelican of the wilderness, I have
 been as an owl of the dry places.
102:7 I have watched, and I am As a bird alone on the roof.
102:8 All the day mine enemies reproached me, Those mad at me
 have sworn against me.
102:9 Because ashes as bread I have eaten, And my drink with
 weeping have mingled,
102:10 From Thine indignation and Thy wrath, For Thou hast
 lifted me up, And dost cast me down.
102:11 My days as a shadow [are] stretched out, And I -- as the
 herb I am withered.
102:12 And Thou, O Jehovah, to the age abidest, And Thy memorial
 to all generations.
102:13 Thou -- Thou risest -- Thou pitiest Zion, For the time to
 favour her, For the appointed time hath come.
102:14 For Thy servants have been pleased with her stones, And
 her dust they favour.
102:15 And nations fear the name of Jehovah, And all kings of
 the earth Thine honour,
102:16 For Jehovah hath builded Zion, He hath been seen in His
 honour,
102:17 He turned unto the prayer of the destitute, And He hath
 not despised their prayer.
102:18 This is written for a later generation, And the people
 created do praise Jah.
102:19 For He hath looked From the high place of His sanctuary.
 Jehovah from heaven unto earth looked attentively,
102:20 To hear the groan of the prisoner, To loose sons of
 death,
102:21 To declare in Zion the name of Jehovah, And His praise in
 Jerusalem,
102:22 In the peoples being gathered together, And the kingdoms
 -- to serve Jehovah.
102:23 He hath humbled in the way my power, He hath shortened my
 days.
102:24 I say, `My God, take me not up in the midst of my days,'
 Through all generations [are] Thine years.
102:25 Beforetime the earth Thou didst found, And the work of
 Thy hands [are] the heavens.
102:26 They -- They perish, and Thou remainest, And all of them
 as a garment become old, As clothing Thou changest them, And
 they are changed.
102:27 And Thou [art] the same, and Thine years are not
 finished.
102:28 The sons of Thy servants do continue, And their seed
 before Thee is established!
103:1 By David. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And all my inward
 parts -- His Holy Name.
103:2 Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And forget not all His
 benefits,
103:3 Who is forgiving all thine iniquities, Who is healing all
 thy diseases,
103:4 Who is redeeming from destruction thy life, Who is
 crowning thee -- kindness and mercies,
103:5 Who is satisfying with good thy desire, Renew itself as an
 eagle doth thy youth.
103:6 Jehovah is doing righteousness and judgments For all the
 oppressed.
103:7 He maketh known His ways to Moses, To the sons of Israel
 His acts.
103:8 Merciful and gracious [is] Jehovah, Slow to anger, and
 abundant in mercy.
103:9 Not for ever doth He strive, Nor to the age doth He watch.
103:10 Not according to our sins hath He done to us, Nor
 according to our iniquities Hath He conferred benefits upon us.
103:11 For, as the height of the heavens [is] above the earth,
 His kindness hath been mighty over those fearing Him.
103:12 As the distance of east from west He hath put far from us
 our transgressions.
103:13 As a father hath mercy on sons, Jehovah hath mercy on
 those fearing Him.
103:14 For He hath known our frame, Remembering that we [are]
 dust.
103:15 Mortal man! as grass [are] his days, As a flower of the
 field so he flourisheth;
103:16 For a wind hath passed over it, and it is not, And its
 place doth not discern it any more.
103:17 And the kindness of Jehovah [Is] from age even unto age
 on those fearing Him, And His righteousness to sons' sons,
103:18 To those keeping His covenant, And to those remembering
 His precepts to do them.
103:19 Jehovah in the heavens Hath established His throne, And
 His kingdom over all hath ruled.
103:20 Bless Jehovah, ye His messengers, Mighty in power --
 doing His word, To hearken to the voice of His Word.
103:21 Bless Jehovah, all ye His hosts, His ministers -- doing
 His pleasure.
103:22 Bless Jehovah, all ye His works, In all places of His
 dominion. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah!
104:1 Bless, O my soul, Jehovah! Jehovah, my God, Thou hast been
 very great, Honour and majesty Thou hast put on.
104:2 Covering himself [with] light as a garment, Stretching out
 the heavens as a curtain,
104:3 Who is laying the beam of His upper chambers in the
 waters, Who is making thick clouds His chariot, Who is walking
 on wings of wind,
104:4 Making His messengers -- the winds, His ministers -- the
 flaming fire.
104:5 He hath founded earth on its bases, It is not moved to the
 age and for ever.
104:6 The abyss! as with clothing Thou hast covered it, Above
 hills do waters stand.
104:7 From Thy rebuke they flee, From the voice of Thy thunder
 haste away.
104:8 They go up hills -- they go down valleys, Unto a place
 Thou hast founded for them.
104:9 A border Thou hast set, they pass not over, They turn not
 back to cover the earth.
104:10 Who is sending forth fountains in valleys, Between hills
 they go on.
104:11 They water every beast of the field, Wild asses break
 their thirst.
104:12 By them the fowl of the heavens doth dwell, From between
 the branches They give forth the voice.
104:13 Watering hills from His upper chambers, From the fruit of
 Thy works is the earth satisfied.
104:14 Causing grass to spring up for cattle, And herb for the
 service of man, To bring forth bread from the earth,
104:15 And wine -- it rejoiceth the heart of man, To cause the
 face to shine from oil, And bread -- the heart of man it
 supporteth.
104:16 Satisfied [are] the trees of Jehovah, Cedars of Lebanon
 that He hath planted,
104:17 Where birds do make nests, The stork -- the firs [are]
 her house.
104:18 The high hills [are] for wild goats, Rocks [are] a refuge
 for conies,
104:19 He made the moon for seasons, The sun hath known his
 place of entrance.
104:20 Thou settest darkness, and it is night, In it doth every
 beast of the forest creep.
104:21 The young lions are roaring for prey, And to seek from
 God their food.
104:22 The sun riseth, they are gathered, And in their dens they
 crouch.
104:23 Man goeth forth to his work, And to his service -- till
 evening.
104:24 How many have been Thy works, O Jehovah, All of them in
 wisdom Thou hast made, Full is the earth of thy possessions.
104:25 This, the sea, great and broad of sides, There [are]
 moving things -- innumerable, Living creatures -- small with
 great.
104:26 There do ships go: leviathan, That Thou hast formed to
 play in it.
104:27 All of them unto Thee do look, To give their food in its
 season.
104:28 Thou dost give to them -- they gather, Thou dost open Thy
 hand -- they [are] satisfied [with] good.
104:29 Thou hidest Thy face -- they are troubled, Thou gatherest
 their spirit -- they expire, And unto their dust they turn
 back.
104:30 Thou sendest out Thy Spirit, they are created, And Thou
 renewest the face of the ground.
104:31 The honour of Jehovah is to the age, Jehovah rejoiceth in
 His works,
104:32 Who is looking to earth, and it trembleth, He cometh
 against hills, and they smoke.
104:33 I sing to Jehovah during my life, I sing praise to my God
 while I exist.
104:34 Sweet is my meditation on Him, I -- I do rejoice in
 Jehovah.
104:35 Consumed are sinners from the earth, And the wicked are
 no more. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah!
105:1 Give ye thanks to Jehovah -- call ye in His name, Make
 known among the peoples His acts.
105:2 Sing ye to Him -- sing praise to Him, Meditate ye on all
 His wonders.
105:3 Boast yourselves in His Holy Name, The heart of those
 seeking Jehovah rejoiceth.
105:4 Seek ye Jehovah and His strength, Seek ye His face
 continually.
105:5 Remember His wonders that He did, His signs and the
 judgments of His mouth.
105:6 O seed of Abraham, His servant, O sons of Jacob, His
 chosen ones.
105:7 He [is] Jehovah our God, In all the earth [are] His
 judgments.
105:8 He hath remembered to the age His covenant, The word He
 commanded to a thousand generations,
105:9 That He hath made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,
105:10 And doth establish it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel
 -- a covenant age-during,
105:11 Saying, `To thee I give the land of Canaan, The portion
 of your inheritance,'
105:12 In their being few in number, But a few, and sojourners
 in it.
105:13 And they go up and down, from nation unto nation, From a
 kingdom unto another people.
105:14 He hath not suffered any to oppress them And He reproveth
 for their sakes kings.
105:15 `Strike not against Mine anointed, And to My prophets do
 not evil.'
105:16 And He calleth a famine on the land, The whole staff of
 bread He hath broken.
105:17 He hath sent before them a man, For a servant hath Joseph
 been sold.
105:18 They have afflicted with fetters his feet, Iron hath
 entered his soul,
105:19 Till the time of the coming of His word The saying of
 Jehovah hath tried him.
105:20 The king hath sent, and looseth him, The ruler of the
 peoples, and draweth him out.
105:21 He hath made him lord of his house, And ruler over all
 his possessions.
105:22 To bind his chiefs at his pleasure, And his elders he
 maketh wise.
105:23 And Israel cometh in to Egypt, And Jacob hath sojourned
 in the land of Ham.
105:24 And He maketh His people very fruitful, And maketh it
 mightier than its adversaries.
105:25 He turned their heart to hate His people, To conspire
 against His servants.
105:26 He hath sent Moses His servant, Aaron whom He had fixed
 on.
105:27 They have set among them the matters of His signs, And
 wonders in the land of Ham.
105:28 He hath sent darkness, and it is dark, And they have not
 provoked His word.
105:29 He hath turned their waters to blood, And putteth to
 death their fish.
105:30 Teemed hath their land [with] frogs, In the inner
 chambers of their kings.
105:31 He hath said, and the beetle cometh, Lice into all their
 border.
105:32 He hath made their showers hail, A flaming fire [is] in
 their land.
105:33 And He smiteth their vine and their fig, And shivereth
 the trees of their border.
105:34 He hath said, and the locust cometh, And the cankerworm
 -- innumerable,
105:35 And it consumeth every herb in their land, And it
 consumeth the fruit of their ground.
105:36 And He smiteth every first-born in their land, The
 first-fruit of all their strength,
105:37 And bringeth them out with silver and gold, And there is
 not in its tribes a feeble one.
105:38 Rejoiced hath Egypt in their going forth, For their fear
 had fallen upon them.
105:39 He hath spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to
 enlighten the night.
105:40 They have asked, and He bringeth quails, And [with] bread
 of heaven satisfieth them.
105:41 He hath opened a rock, and waters issue, They have gone
 on in dry places -- a river.
105:42 For He hath remembered His holy word, With Abraham His
 servant,
105:43 And He bringeth forth His people with joy, With singing
 His chosen ones.
105:44 And He giveth to them the lands of nations, And the
 labour of peoples they possess,
105:45 That they may observe His statutes, And His laws may
 keep. Praise ye Jehovah!
106:1 Praise ye Jah, give thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to
 the age, [is] His kindness.
106:2 Who doth utter the mighty acts of Jehovah? Soundeth all
 His praise?
106:3 O the happiness of those keeping judgment, Doing
 righteousness at all times.
106:4 Remember me, O Jehovah, With the favour of Thy people,
 Look after me in Thy salvation.
106:5 To look on the good of Thy chosen ones, To rejoice in the
 joy of Thy nation, To boast myself with Thine inheritance.
106:6 We have sinned with our fathers, We have done perversely,
 we have done wickedly.
106:7 Our fathers in Egypt, Have not considered wisely Thy
 wonders, They have not remembered The abundance of Thy kind
 acts, And provoke by the sea, at the sea of Suph.
106:8 And He saveth them for His name's sake, To make known His
 might,
106:9 And rebuketh the sea of Suph, and it is dried up, And
 causeth them to go Through depths as a wilderness.
106:10 And He saveth them from the hand Of him who is hating,
 And redeemeth them from the hand of the enemy.
106:11 And waters cover their adversaries, One of them hath not
 been left.
106:12 And they believe in His words, they sing His praise,
106:13 They have hasted -- forgotten His works, They have not
 waited for His counsel.
106:14 And they lust greatly in a wilderness, And try God in a
 desert.
106:15 And He giveth to them their request, And sendeth leanness
 into their soul.
106:16 And they are envious of Moses in the camp, Of Aaron,
 Jehovah's holy one.
106:17 Earth openeth, and swalloweth up Dathan, And covereth
 over the company of Abiram.
106:18 And fire burneth among their company, A flame setteth on
 fire the wicked.
106:19 They make a calf in Horeb, And bow themselves to a molten
 image,
106:20 And change their Honour Into the form of an ox eating
 herbs.
106:21 They have forgotten God their saviour, The doer of great
 things in Egypt,
106:22 Of wonderful things in the land of Ham, Of fearful things
 by the sea of Suph.
106:23 And He saith to destroy them, Unless Moses, His chosen
 one, Had stood in the breach before Him, To turn back His wrath
 from destroying.
106:24 And they kick against the desirable land, They have not
 given credence to His word.
106:25 And they murmur in their tents, They have not hearkened
 to the voice of Jehovah.
106:26 And He lifteth up His hand to them, To cause them to fall
 in a wilderness,
106:27 And to cause their seed to fall among nations, And to
 scatter them through lands.
106:28 And they are coupled to Baal-Peor, And eat the sacrifices
 of the dead,
106:29 And they provoke to anger by their actions, And a plague
 breaketh forth upon them,
106:30 And Phinehas standeth, and executeth judgment, And the
 plague is restrained,
106:31 And it is reckoned to him to righteousness, To all
 generations -- unto the age.
106:32 And they cause wrath by the waters of Meribah, And it is
 evil to Moses for their sakes,
106:33 For they have provoked his spirit, And he speaketh
 wrongfully with his lips.
106:34 They have not destroyed the peoples, As Jehovah had said
 to them,
106:35 And mix themselves among nations, and learn their works,
106:36 And serve their idols, And they are to them for a snare.
106:37 And they sacrifice their sons And their daughters to
 destroyers,
106:38 And they shed innocent blood -- Blood of their sons and
 of their daughters, Whom they have sacrificed to idols of
 Canaan, And the land is profaned with blood.
106:39 And they are defiled with their works, And commit
 whoredom in their habitual doings.
106:40 And the anger of Jehovah Is kindled against His people,
 And He doth abominate His inheritance.
106:41 And giveth them into the hand of nations, And those
 hating them rule over them,
106:42 And their enemies oppress them, And they are humbled
 under their hand.
106:43 Many times He doth deliver them, And they rebel in their
 counsel, And they are brought low in their iniquity.
106:44 And He looketh on their distress When He heareth their
 cry,
106:45 And remembereth for them His covenant, And is comforted,
 According to the abundance of His kindness.
106:46 And He appointeth them for mercies Before all their
 captors.
106:47 Save us, O Jehovah our God, and gather us from the
 nations, To give thanks to Thy holy name, To glory in Thy
 praise.
106:48 Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age even
 unto the age. And all the people said, `Amen, praise Jah!'
107:1 `Give ye thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age [is]
 His kindness:'
107:2 Let the redeemed of Jehovah say, Whom He redeemed from the
 hand of an adversary.
107:3 And from the lands hath gathered them, From east and from
 west, From north, and from the sea.
107:4 They wandered in a wilderness, in a desert by the way, A
 city of habitation they have not found.
107:5 Hungry -- yea -- thirsty, Their soul in them becometh
 feeble,
107:6 And they cry unto Jehovah in their adversity, From their
 distress He delivereth them,
107:7 And causeth them to tread in a right way, To go unto a
 city of habitation.
107:8 They confess to Jehovah His kindness, And His wonders to
 the sons of men.
107:9 For He hath satisfied a longing soul, And a hungry soul
 hath filled [with] goodness.
107:10 Inhabitants of dark places and death-shade, Prisoners of
 affliction and of iron,
107:11 Because they changed the saying of God, And the counsel
 of the Most High despised.
107:12 And He humbleth with labour their heart, They have been
 feeble, and there is no helper.
107:13 And they cry unto Jehovah in their adversity, From their
 distresses He saveth them.
107:14 He bringeth them out from the dark place, And
 death-shade, And their bands He draweth away.
107:15 They confess to Jehovah His kindness, And His wonders to
 the sons of men.
107:16 For He hath broken doors of brass, And bars of iron He
 hath cut.
107:17 Fools, by means of their transgression, And by their
 iniquities, afflict themselves.
107:18 All food doth their soul abominate, And they come nigh
 unto the gates of death,
107:19 And cry unto Jehovah in their adversity, From their
 distresses He saveth them,
107:20 He sendeth His word and healeth them, And delivereth from
 their destructions.
107:21 They confess to Jehovah His kindness, And His wonders to
 the sons of men,
107:22 And they sacrifice sacrifices of thanksgiving, And
 recount His works with singing.
107:23 Those going down [to] the sea in ships, Doing business in
 many waters,
107:24 They have seen the works of Jehovah, And His wonders in
 the deep.
107:25 And He saith, and appointeth a tempest, And it lifteth up
 its billows,
107:26 They go up [to] the heavens, they go down [to] the
 depths, Their soul in evil is melted.
107:27 They reel to and fro, and move as a drunkard, And all
 their wisdom is swallowed up.
107:28 And they cry to Jehovah in their adversity, And from
 their distresses He bringeth them out.
107:29 He establisheth a whirlwind to a calm, And hushed are
 their billows.
107:30 And they rejoice because they are quiet, And He leadeth
 them to the haven of their desire.
107:31 They confess to Jehovah His kindness, And His wonders to
 the sons of men,
107:32 And they exalt Him in the assembly of the people, And in
 the seat of the elders praise Him.
107:33 He maketh rivers become a wilderness, And fountains of
 waters become dry land.
107:34 A fruitful land becometh a barren place, For the
 wickedness of its inhabitants.
107:35 He maketh a wilderness become a pool of water, And a dry
 land become fountains of waters.
107:36 And He causeth the hungry to dwell there, And they
 prepare a city of habitation.
107:37 And they sow fields, and plant vineyards, And they make
 fruits of increase.
107:38 And He blesseth them, and they multiply exceedingly, And
 their cattle He doth not diminish.
107:39 And they are diminished, and bow down, By restraint,
 evil, and sorrow.
107:40 He is pouring contempt upon nobles, And causeth them to
 wander in vacancy -- no way.
107:41 And setteth on high the needy from affliction, And
 placeth families as a flock.
107:42 The upright do see and rejoice, And all perversity hath
 shut her mouth.
107:43 Who [is] wise, and observeth these? They understand the
 kind acts of Jehovah!
108:1 A Song, a Psalm of David. Prepared is my heart, O God, I
 sing, yea, I sing praise, also my honour.
108:2 Awake, psaltery and harp, I awake the dawn.
108:3 I thank Thee among peoples, O Jehovah, And I praise Thee
 among the nations.
108:4 For great above the heavens [is] Thy kindness, And unto
 the clouds Thy truth.
108:5 Be Thou exalted above the heavens, O God, And above all
 the earth Thy honour.
108:6 That Thy beloved ones may be delivered, Save [with] Thy
 right hand, and answer us.
108:7 God hath spoken in His holiness: I exult, I apportion
 Shechem, And the valley of Succoth I measure,
108:8 Mine [is] Gilead, mine [is] Manasseh, And Ephraim [is] the
 strength of my head, Judah [is] my lawgiver,
108:9 Moab [is] a pot for my washing, Upon Edom I cast my shoe,
 Over Philistia I shout habitually.
108:10 Who doth bring me in to the fenced city? Who hath led me
 unto Edom?
108:11 Hast not Thou, O God, cast us off? And Thou goest not
 out, O God, with our hosts!
108:12 Give to us help from adversity, And vain is the salvation
 of man.
108:13 In God we do mightily, And He doth tread down our
 adversaries!
109:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. O God of my praise,
 be not silent,
109:2 For the mouth of wickedness, and the mouth of deceit,
 Against me they have opened, They have spoken with me -- A
 tongue of falsehood, and words of hatred!
109:3 They have compassed me about, And they fight me without
 cause.
109:4 For my love they oppose me, and I -- prayer!
109:5 And they set against me evil for good, And hatred for my
 love.
109:6 Appoint Thou over him the wicked, And an adversary
 standeth at his right hand.
109:7 In his being judged, he goeth forth wicked, And his prayer
 is for sin.
109:8 His days are few, his oversight another taketh,
109:9 His sons are fatherless, and his wife a widow.
109:10 And wander continually do his sons, Yea, they have
 begged, And have sought out of their dry places.
109:11 An exactor layeth a snare for all that he hath, And
 strangers spoil his labour.
109:12 He hath none to extend kindness, Nor is there one showing
 favour to his orphans.
109:13 His posterity is for cutting off, In another generation
 is their name blotted out.
109:14 The iniquity of his fathers Is remembered unto Jehovah,
 And the sin of his mother is not blotted out.
109:15 They are before Jehovah continually, And He cutteth off
 from earth their memorial.
109:16 Because that he hath not remembered to do kindness, And
 pursueth the poor man and needy, And the smitten of heart -- to
 slay,
109:17 And he loveth reviling, and it meeteth him, And he hath
 not delighted in blessing, And it is far from him.
109:18 And he putteth on reviling as his robe, And it cometh in
 as water into his midst, And as oil into his bones.
109:19 It is to him as apparel -- he covereth himself, And for a
 continual girdle he girdeth it on.
109:20 This [is] the wage of mine accusers from Jehovah, And of
 those speaking evil against my soul.
109:21 And Thou, O Jehovah Lord, Deal with me for Thy name's
 sake, Because Thy kindness [is] good, deliver me.
109:22 For I [am] poor and needy, And my heart hath been pierced
 in my midst.
109:23 As a shadow when it is stretched out I have gone, I have
 been driven away as a locust.
109:24 My knees have been feeble from fasting, And my flesh hath
 failed of fatness.
109:25 And I -- I have been a reproach to them, They see me,
 they shake their head.
109:26 Help me, O Jehovah my God, Save me, according to Thy
 kindness.
109:27 And they know that this [is] Thy hand, Thou, O Jehovah,
 Thou hast done it.
109:28 They revile, and Thou dost bless, They have risen, and
 are ashamed, And Thy servant doth rejoice.
109:29 Mine accusers put on blushing, and are covered, As an
 upper robe [is] their shame.
109:30 I thank Jehovah greatly with my mouth, And in the midst
 of many I praise Him,
109:31 For He standeth at the right hand of the needy, To save
 from those judging his soul.
110:1 A Psalm of David. The affirmation of Jehovah to my Lord:
 `Sit at My right hand, Till I make thine enemies thy
 footstool.'
110:2 The rod of thy strength doth Jehovah send from Zion, Rule
 in the midst of thine enemies.
110:3 Thy people [are] free-will gifts in the day of Thy
 strength, in the honours of holiness, From the womb, from the
 morning, Thou hast the dew of thy youth.
110:4 Jehovah hath sworn, and doth not repent, `Thou [art] a
 priest to the age, According to the order of Melchizedek.'
110:5 The Lord on thy right hand smote kings In the day of His
 anger.
110:6 He doth judge among the nations, He hath completed the
 carcases, Hath smitten the head over the mighty earth.
110:7 From a brook in the way he drinketh, Therefore he doth
 lift up the head!
111:1 Praise ye Jah! I thank Jehovah with the whole heart, In
 the secret meeting of the upright, And of the company.
111:2 Great [are] the works of Jehovah, Sought out by all
 desiring them.
111:3 Honourable and majestic is His work, And His righteousness
 is standing for ever.
111:4 A memorial He hath made of His wonders, Gracious and
 merciful [is] Jehovah.
111:5 Prey He hath given to those fearing Him, He remembereth to
 the age His covenant.
111:6 The power of His works He hath declared to His people, To
 give to them the inheritance of nations.
111:7 The works of His hands [are] true and just, Stedfast [are]
 all His appointments.
111:8 They are sustained for ever to the age. They are made in
 truth and uprightness.
111:9 Redemption He hath sent to His people, He hath appointed
 to the age His covenant, Holy and fearful [is] His name.
111:10 The beginning of wisdom [is] fear of Jehovah, Good
 understanding have all doing them, His praise [is] standing for
 ever!
112:1 Praise ye Jah! O the happiness of one fearing Jehovah, In
 His commands he hath delighted greatly.
112:2 Mighty in the earth is his seed, The generation of the
 upright is blessed.
112:3 Wealth and riches [are] in his house, And his
 righteousness is standing for ever.
112:4 Light hath risen in darkness to the upright, Gracious, and
 merciful, and righteous.
112:5 Good [is] the man -- gracious and lending, He sustaineth
 his matters in judgment.
112:6 For -- to the age he is not moved; For a memorial
 age-during is the righteous.
112:7 Of an evil report he is not afraid, Prepared is His heart,
 confident in Jehovah.
112:8 Sustained is his heart -- he feareth not, Till that he
 look on his adversaries.
112:9 He hath scattered -- hath given to the needy, His
 righteousness is standing for ever, His horn is exalted with
 honour.
112:10 The wicked seeth, and hath been angry, His teeth he
 gnasheth, and hath melted, The desire of the wicked doth
 perish!
113:1 Praise ye Jah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah. Praise the
 name of Jehovah.
113:2 The name of Jehovah is blessed, From henceforth, and unto
 the age.
113:3 From the rising of the sun unto its going in, Praised [is]
 the name of Jehovah.
113:4 High above all nations [is] Jehovah, Above the heavens
 [is] his honour.
113:5 Who [is] as Jehovah our God, He is exalting [Himself] to
 sit?
113:6 He is humbling [Himself] to look On the heavens and on the
 earth.
113:7 He is raising up from the dust the poor, From a dunghill
 He exalteth the needy.
113:8 To cause to sit with princes, With the princes of His
 people.
113:9 Causing the barren one of the house to sit, A joyful
 mother of sons; praise ye Jah!
114:1 In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob
 from a strange people,
114:2 Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
114:3 The sea hath seen, and fleeth, The Jordan turneth
 backward.
114:4 The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a
 flock.
114:5 What -- to thee, O sea, that thou fleest? O Jordan, thou
 turnest back!
114:6 O mountains, ye skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a
 flock!
114:7 From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the
 God of Jacob,
114:8 He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a
 fountain of waters!
115:1 Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, But to Thy name give
 honour, For Thy kindness, for Thy truth.
115:2 Why do the nations say, `Where, pray, [is] their God.
115:3 And our God [is] in the heavens, All that He hath pleased
 He hath done.
115:4 Their idols [are] silver and gold, work of man's hands,
115:5 A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and
 they see not,
115:6 Ears they have, and they hear not, A nose they have, and
 they smell not,
115:7 Their hands, but they handle not, Their feet, and they
 walk not;
115:8 Nor do they mutter through their throat, Like them are
 their makers, Every one who is trusting in them.
115:9 O Israel, trust in Jehovah, `Their help and their shield
 [is] He.'
115:10 O house of Aaron, trust in Jehovah, `Their help and their
 shield [is] He.'
115:11 Ye fearing Jehovah, trust in Jehovah, `Their help and
 their shield [is] He.'
115:12 Jehovah hath remembered us, He blesseth, He blesseth the
 house of Israel, He blesseth the house of Aaron,
115:13 He blesseth those fearing Jehovah, The small with the
 great.
115:14 Jehovah addeth to you, to you, and to your sons.
115:15 Blessed [are] ye of Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,
115:16 The heavens -- the heavens [are] Jehovah's, And the earth
 He hath given to sons of men,
115:17 The dead praise not Jah, Nor any going down to silence.
115:18 And we, we bless Jah, From henceforth, and unto the age.
 Praise ye Jah!
116:1 I have loved, because Jehovah heareth My voice, my
 supplication,
116:2 Because He hath inclined His ear to me, And during my days
 I call.
116:3 Compassed me have cords of death, And straits of Sheol
 have found me, Distress and sorrow I find.
116:4 And in the name of Jehovah I call: I pray Thee, O Jehovah,
 deliver my soul,
116:5 Gracious [is] Jehovah, and righteous, Yea, our God [is]
 merciful,
116:6 A preserver of the simple [is] Jehovah, I was low, and to
 me He giveth salvation.
116:7 Turn back, O my soul, to thy rest, For Jehovah hath
 conferred benefits on thee.
116:8 For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, My eyes from
 tears, my feet from overthrowing.
116:9 I walk habitually before Jehovah In the lands of the
 living.
116:10 I have believed, for I speak, I -- I have been afflicted
 greatly.
116:11 I said in my haste, `Every man [is] a liar.'
116:12 What do I return to Jehovah? All His benefits [are] upon
 me.
116:13 The cup of salvation I lift up, And in the name of
 Jehovah I call.
116:14 My vows to Jehovah let me complete, I pray you, before
 all His people.
116:15 Precious in the eyes of Jehovah [is] the death for His
 saints.
116:16 Cause [it] to come, O Jehovah, for I [am] Thy servant. I
 [am] Thy servant, son of Thy handmaid, Thou hast opened my
 bonds.
116:17 To Thee I sacrifice a sacrifice of thanks, And in the
 name of Jehovah I call.
116:18 My vows to Jehovah let me complete, I pray you, before
 all His people,
116:19 In the courts of the house of Jehovah, In thy midst, O
 Jerusalem, praise ye Jah!
117:1 Praise Jehovah, all ye nations, Glorify Him, all ye
 peoples.
117:2 For mighty to us hath been His kindness, And the truth of
 Jehovah [is] to the age. Praise ye Jah!
118:1 Give ye thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age [is]
 His kindness.
118:2 I pray you, let Israel say, That, to the age [is] His
 kindness.
118:3 I pray you, let the house of Aaron say, That, to the age
 [is] His kindness.
118:4 I pray you, let those fearing Jehovah say, That, to the
 age [is] His kindness.
118:5 From the straitness I called Jah, Jah answered me in a
 broad place.
118:6 Jehovah [is] for me, I do not fear what man doth to me.
118:7 Jehovah [is] for me among my helpers, And I -- I look on
 those hating me.
118:8 Better to take refuge in Jehovah than to trust in man,
118:9 Better to take refuge in Jehovah, Than to trust in
 princes.
118:10 All nations have compassed me about, In the name of
 Jehovah I surely cut them off.
118:11 They have compassed me about, Yea, they have compassed me
 about, In the name of Jehovah I surely cut them off.
118:12 They compassed me about as bees, They have been
 extinguished as a fire of thorns, In the name of Jehovah I
 surely cut them off.
118:13 Thou hast sorely thrust me to fall, And Jehovah hath
 helped me.
118:14 My strength and song [is] Jah, And He is to me for
 salvation.
118:15 A voice of singing and salvation, [Is] in the tents of
 the righteous, The right hand of Jehovah is doing valiantly.
118:16 The right hand of Jehovah is exalted, The right hand of
 Jehovah is doing valiantly.
118:17 I do not die, but live, And recount the works of Jah,
118:18 Jah hath sorely chastened me, And to death hath not given
 me up.
118:19 Open ye to me gates of righteousness, I enter into them
 -- I thank Jah.
118:20 This [is] the gate to Jehovah, The righteous enter into
 it.
118:21 I thank Thee, for Thou hast answered me, And art to me
 for salvation.
118:22 A stone the builders refused Hath become head of a
 corner.
118:23 From Jehovah hath this been, It [is] wonderful in our
 eyes,
118:24 This [is] the day Jehovah hath made, We rejoice and are
 glad in it.
118:25 I beseech Thee, O Jehovah, save, I pray Thee, I beseech
 Thee, O Jehovah, prosper, I pray Thee.
118:26 Blessed [is] he who is coming In the name of Jehovah, We
 blessed you from the house of Jehovah,
118:27 God [is] Jehovah, and He giveth to us light, Direct ye
 the festal-sacrifice with cords, Unto the horns of the altar.
118:28 My God Thou [art], and I confess Thee, My God, I exalt
 Thee.
118:29 Give ye thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age, [is]
 His kindness!
119:1 [Aleph.] O the happiness of those perfect in the way, They
 are walking in the law of Jehovah,
119:2 O the happiness of those keeping His testimonies, With the
 whole heart they seek Him.
119:3 Yea, they have not done iniquity, In His ways they have
 walked.
119:4 Thou hast commanded us Thy precepts to keep diligently,
119:5 O that my ways were prepared to keep Thy statutes,
119:6 Then I am not ashamed In my looking unto all Thy commands.
119:7 I confess Thee with uprightness of heart, In my learning
 the judgments of Thy righteousness.
119:8 Thy statutes I keep, leave me not utterly!
119:9 [Beth.] With what doth a young man purify his path? To
 observe -- according to Thy word.
119:10 With all my heart I have sought Thee, Let me not err from
 Thy commands.
119:11 In my heart I have hid Thy saying, That I sin not before
 Thee.
119:12 Blessed [art] Thou, O Jehovah, teach me Thy statutes.
119:13 With my lips I have recounted All the judgments of Thy
 mouth.
119:14 In the way of Thy testimonies I have joyed, As over all
 wealth.
119:15 In Thy precepts I meditate, And I behold attentively Thy
 paths.
119:16 In Thy statutes I delight myself, I do not forget Thy
 word.
119:17 [Gimel.] Confer benefits on Thy servant, I live, and I
 keep Thy word.
119:18 Uncover mine eyes, and I behold wonders out of Thy law.
119:19 A sojourner I [am] on earth, Hide not from me Thy
 commands.
119:20 Broken hath my soul for desire Unto Thy judgments at all
 times.
119:21 Thou hast rebuked the cursed proud, Who are erring from
 Thy commands.
119:22 Remove from me reproach and contempt, For Thy testimonies
 I have kept.
119:23 Princes also sat -- against me they spoke, Thy servant
 doth meditate in Thy statutes,
119:24 Thy testimonies also [are] my delight, The men of my
 counsel!
119:25 [Daleth.] Cleaved to the dust hath my soul, Quicken me
 according to Thy word.
119:26 My ways I have recounted, And Thou answerest me, teach me
 Thy statutes,
119:27 The way of Thy precepts cause me to understand, And I
 meditate in Thy wonders.
119:28 My soul hath dropped from affliction, Establish me
 according to Thy word.
119:29 The way of falsehood turn aside from me And with Thy law
 favour me.
119:30 The way of faithfulness I have chosen, Thy judgments I
 have compared,
119:31 I have adhered to Thy testimonies, O Jehovah, put me not
 to shame.
119:32 The way of Thy commands I run, For Thou dost enlarge my
 heart!
119:33 [He.] Show me, O Jehovah, the way of Thy statutes, And I
 keep it -- [to] the end.
119:34 Cause me to understand, and I keep Thy law, And observe
 it with the whole heart.
119:35 Cause me to tread in the path of Thy commands, For in it
 I have delighted.
119:36 Incline my heart unto Thy testimonies, And not unto
 dishonest gain.
119:37 Remove mine eyes from seeing vanity, In Thy way quicken
 Thou me.
119:38 Establish to Thy servant Thy saying, That [is] concerning
 Thy fear.
119:39 Remove my reproach that I have feared, For Thy judgments
 [are] good.
119:40 Lo, I have longed for Thy precepts, In Thy righteousness
 quicken Thou me,
119:41 [Waw.] And meet me doth Thy kindness, O Jehovah, Thy
 salvation according to Thy saying.
119:42 And I answer him who is reproaching me a word, For I have
 trusted in Thy word.
119:43 And Thou takest not utterly away From my mouth the word
 of truth, Because for Thy judgment I have hoped.
119:44 And I keep Thy law continually, To the age and for ever.
119:45 And I walk habitually in a broad place, For Thy precepts
 I have sought.
119:46 And I speak of Thy testimonies before kings, And I am not
 ashamed.
119:47 And I delight myself in Thy commands, That I have loved,
119:48 And I lift up my hands unto Thy commands, That I have
 loved, And I do meditate on Thy statutes!
119:49 [Zain.] Remember the word to Thy servant, On which Thou
 hast caused me to hope.
119:50 This [is] my comfort in mine affliction, That Thy saying
 hath quickened me.
119:51 The proud have utterly scorned me, From Thy law I have
 not turned aside.
119:52 I remembered Thy judgments of old, O Jehovah, And I
 comfort myself.
119:53 Horror hath seized me, Because of the wicked forsaking
 Thy law.
119:54 Songs have been to me Thy statutes, In the house of my
 sojournings.
119:55 I have remembered in the night Thy name, O Jehovah, And I
 do keep Thy law.
119:56 This hath been to me, That Thy precepts I have kept!
119:57 [Cheth.] My portion [is] Jehovah; I have said -- to keep
 Thy words,
119:58 I appeased Thy face with the whole heart, Favour me
 according to Thy saying.
119:59 I have reckoned my ways, And turn back my feet unto Thy
 testimonies.
119:60 I have made haste, And delayed not, to keep Thy commands.
119:61 Cords of the wicked have surrounded me, Thy law I have
 not forgotten.
119:62 At midnight I rise to give thanks to Thee, For the
 judgments of Thy righteousness.
119:63 A companion I [am] to all who fear Thee, And to those
 keeping Thy precepts.
119:64 Of Thy kindness, O Jehovah, the earth is full, Thy
 statutes teach Thou me!
119:65 [Teth.] Good Thou didst with Thy servant, O Jehovah,
 According to Thy word.
119:66 The goodness of reason and knowledge teach me, For in Thy
 commands I have believed.
119:67 Before I am afflicted, I -- I am erring, And now Thy
 saying I have kept.
119:68 Good Thou [art], and doing good, Teach me Thy statutes.
119:69 Forged against me falsehood have the proud, I with the
 whole heart keep Thy precepts.
119:70 Insensate as fat hath been their heart, I -- in Thy law I
 have delighted.
119:71 Good for me that I have been afflicted, That I might
 learn Thy statutes.
119:72 Better to me [is] the law of Thy mouth Than thousands of
 gold and silver!
119:73 [Yod.] Thy hands made me and establish me, Cause me to
 understand, and I learn Thy commands.
119:74 Those fearing Thee see me and rejoice, Because for Thy
 word I have hoped.
119:75 I have known, O Jehovah, That righteous [are] Thy
 judgments, And [in] faithfulness Thou hast afflicted me.
119:76 Let, I pray Thee, Thy kindness be to comfort me,
 According to Thy saying to Thy servant.
119:77 Meet me do Thy mercies, and I live, For Thy law [is] my
 delight.
119:78 Ashamed are the proud, For [with] falsehood they dealt
 perversely with me. I meditate in Thy precepts.
119:79 Those fearing Thee turn back to me, And those knowing Thy
 testimonies.
119:80 My heart is perfect in Thy statutes, So that I am not
 ashamed.
119:81 [Kaph.] Consumed for Thy salvation hath been my soul, For
 Thy word I have hoped.
119:82 Consumed have been mine eyes for Thy word, Saying, `When
 doth it comfort me?'
119:83 For I have been as a bottle in smoke, Thy statutes I have
 not forgotten.
119:84 How many [are] the days of Thy servant? When dost Thou
 execute Against my pursuers judgment?
119:85 The proud have digged for me pits, That [are] not
 according to Thy law.
119:86 All Thy commands [are] faithfulness, [With] falsehood
 they have pursued me, Help Thou me.
119:87 Almost consumed me on earth have they, And I -- I have
 not forsaken Thy precepts.
119:88 According to Thy kindness quicken Thou me, And I keep the
 testimony of Thy mouth!
119:89 [Lamed.] To the age, O Jehovah, Thy word is set up in the
 heavens.
119:90 To all generations Thy faithfulness, Thou didst establish
 earth, and it standeth.
119:91 According to Thine ordinances They have stood this day,
 for the whole [are] Thy servants.
119:92 Unless Thy law [were] my delights, Then had I perished in
 mine affliction.
119:93 To the age I forget not Thy precepts, For by them Thou
 hast quickened me.
119:94 I [am] Thine, save Thou me, For Thy precepts I have
 sought.
119:95 Thy wicked waited for me to destroy me, Thy testimonies I
 understand.
119:96 Of all perfection I have seen an end, Broad [is] Thy
 command -- exceedingly!
119:97 [Mem.] O how I have loved Thy law! All the day it [is] my
 meditation.
119:98 Than mine enemies Thy command maketh me wiser, For it
 [is] before me to the age.
119:99 Above all my teachers I have acted wisely. For Thy
 testimonies [are] my meditation.
119:100 Above elders I understand more, For Thy precepts I have
 kept.
119:101 From every evil path I restrained my feet, So that I
 keep Thy word.
119:102 From Thy judgments I turned not aside, For Thou -- Thou
 hast directed me.
119:103 How sweet to my palate hath been Thy saying, Above honey
 to my mouth.
119:104 From Thy precepts I have understanding, Therefore I have
 hated every false path!
119:105 [Nun.] A lamp to my foot [is] Thy word, And a light to
 my path.
119:106 I have sworn, and I confirm [it], To keep the judgments
 of Thy righteousness.
119:107 I have been afflicted very much, O Jehovah, quicken me,
 according to Thy word.
119:108 Free-will-offerings of my mouth, Accept, I pray Thee, O
 Jehovah, And Thy judgments teach Thou me.
119:109 My soul [is] in my hand continually, And Thy law I have
 not forgotten.
119:110 The wicked have laid a snare for me, And from thy
 precepts I wandered not.
119:111 I have inherited Thy testimonies to the age, For the joy
 of my heart [are] they.
119:112 I have inclined my heart To do Thy statutes, to the age
 -- [to] the end!
119:113 [Samech.] Doubting ones I have hated, And Thy law I have
 loved.
119:114 My hiding place and my shield [art] Thou, For Thy word I
 have hoped.
119:115 Turn aside from me, ye evil-doers, And I keep the
 commands of my God.
119:116 Sustain me according to Thy saying, And I live, and Thou
 puttest me not to shame Because of my hope.
119:117 Support Thou me, and I am saved, And I look on Thy
 statutes continually.
119:118 Thou hast trodden down All going astray from Thy
 statutes, For falsehood [is] their deceit.
119:119 Dross! Thou hast caused to cease All the wicked of the
 earth; Therefore I have loved Thy testimonies.
119:120 Trembled from Thy fear hath my flesh, And from Thy
 judgments I have been afraid!
119:121 [Ain.] I have done judgment and righteousness, Leave me
 not to mine oppressors.
119:122 Make sure Thy servant for good, Let not the proud
 oppress me.
119:123 Mine eyes have been consumed for Thy salvation. And for
 the saying of Thy righteousness.
119:124 Do with Thy servant according to Thy kindness. And Thy
 statutes teach Thou me.
119:125 Thy servant [am] I -- cause me to understand, And I know
 Thy testimonies.
119:126 Time for Jehovah to work! they have made void Thy law.
119:127 Therefore I have loved Thy commands Above gold -- even
 fine gold.
119:128 Therefore all my appointments I have declared wholly
 right, Every path of falsehood I have hated!
119:129 [Pe.] Wonderful [are] Thy testimonies, Therefore hath my
 soul kept them.
119:130 The opening of Thy words enlighteneth, Instructing the
 simple.
119:131 My mouth I have opened, yea, I pant, For, for Thy
 commands I have longed.
119:132 Look unto me, and favour me, As customary to those
 loving Thy name.
119:133 My steps establish by Thy saying, And any iniquity doth
 not rule over me.
119:134 Ransom me from the oppression of man, And I observe Thy
 precepts,
119:135 Thy face cause to shine on Thy servant, And teach me Thy
 statutes.
119:136 Rivulets of waters have come down mine eyes, Because
 they have not kept Thy law!
119:137 [Tzade.] Righteous [art] Thou, O Jehovah, And upright
 [are] Thy judgments.
119:138 Thou hast appointed Thy testimonies, Righteous and
 exceeding faithful,
119:139 Cut me off hath my zeal, For mine adversaries forgot Thy
 words.
119:140 Tried [is] thy saying exceedingly, And Thy servant hath
 loved it.
119:141 Small I [am], and despised, Thy precepts I have not
 forgotten.
119:142 Thy righteousness [is] righteousness to the age, And Thy
 law [is] truth.
119:143 Adversity and distress have found me, Thy commands [are]
 my delights.
119:144 The righteousness of Thy testimonies [is] to Cause me to
 understand, and I live!
119:145 [Koph.] I have called with the whole heart, Answer me, O
 Jehovah, Thy statutes I keep,
119:146 I have called Thee, save Thou me, And I do keep Thy
 testimonies.
119:147 I have gone forward in the dawn, and I cry, For Thy word
 I have hoped.
119:148 Mine eyes have gone before the watches, To meditate in
 Thy saying.
119:149 My voice hear, according to Thy kindness, Jehovah,
 according to Thy judgment quicken me.
119:150 Near have been my wicked pursuers, From Thy law they
 have been far off.
119:151 Near [art] Thou, O Jehovah, And all Thy commands [are]
 truth.
119:152 Of old I have known Thy testimonies, That to the age
 Thou hast founded them!
119:153 [Resh.] See my affliction, and deliver Thou me, For Thy
 law I have not forgotten.
119:154 Plead my plea, and redeem me, According to Thy saying
 quicken me.
119:155 Far from the wicked [is] salvation, For Thy statutes
 they have not sought.
119:156 Thy mercies [are] many, O Jehovah, According to Thy
 judgments quicken me.
119:157 Many [are] my pursuers, and adversaries, From Thy
 testimonies I have not turned aside.
119:158 I have seen treacherous ones, And grieve myself, Because
 Thy saying they have not kept.
119:159 See, for thy precepts I have loved, Jehovah, According
 to Thy kindness quicken me.
119:160 The sum of Thy word [is] truth, And to the age [is]
 every judgment of Thy righteousness!
119:161 [Shin.] Princes have pursued me without cause, And
 because of Thy words was my heart afraid.
119:162 I do rejoice concerning Thy saying, As one finding
 abundant spoil.
119:163 Falsehood I have hated, yea I abominate [it], Thy law I
 have loved.
119:164 Seven [times] in a day I have praised Thee, Because of
 the judgments of Thy righteousness.
119:165 Abundant peace have those loving Thy law, And they have
 no stumbling-block.
119:166 I have waited for Thy salvation, O Jehovah, And Thy
 commands I have done.
119:167 Kept hath my soul Thy testimonies, And I do love them
 exceedingly.
119:168 I have kept Thy precepts and Thy testimonies, For all my
 ways are before Thee!
119:169 [Taw.] My loud cry cometh near before Thee, O Jehovah;
 According to Thy word cause me to understand.
119:170 My supplication cometh in before Thee, According to Thy
 saying deliver Thou me.
119:171 My lips do utter praise, For Thou dost teach me Thy
 statutes.
119:172 My tongue doth sing of Thy saying, For all Thy commands
 [are] righteous.
119:173 Thy hand is for a help to me, For Thy commands I have
 chosen.
119:174 I have longed for Thy salvation, O Jehovah, And Thy law
 [is] my delight.
119:175 My soul liveth, and it doth praise Thee, And Thy
 judgments do help me.
119:176 I wandered as a lost sheep, seek Thy servant, For Thy
 precepts I have not forgotten!
120:1 A Song of the Ascents. Unto Jehovah in my distress I have
 called, And He answereth me.
120:2 O Jehovah, deliver my soul from a lying lip, From a
 deceitful tongue!
120:3 What doth He give to thee? And what doth He add to thee? O
 deceitful tongue!
120:4 Sharp arrows of a mighty one, with broom-coals.
120:5 Woe to me, for I have inhabited Mesech, I have dwelt with
 tents of Kedar.
120:6 Too much hath my soul dwelt with him who is hating peace.
120:7 I [am] peace, and when I speak they [are] for war!
121:1 A Song of the Ascents. I lift up mine eyes unto the hills,
 Whence doth my help come?
121:2 My help [is] from Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,
121:3 He suffereth not thy foot to be moved, Thy preserver
 slumbereth not.
121:4 Lo, He slumbereth not, nor sleepeth, He who is preserving
 Israel.
121:5 Jehovah [is] thy preserver, Jehovah [is] thy shade on thy
 right hand,
121:6 By day the sun doth not smite thee, Nor the moon by night.
121:7 Jehovah preserveth thee from all evil, He doth preserve
 thy soul.
121:8 Jehovah preserveth thy going out and thy coming in, From
 henceforth even unto the age!
122:1 A Song of the Ascents, by David. I have rejoiced in those
 saying to me, `To the house of Jehovah we go.'
122:2 Our feet have been standing in thy gates, O Jerusalem!
122:3 Jerusalem -- the builded one -- [Is] as a city that is
 joined to itself together.
122:4 For thither have tribes gone up, Tribes of Jah, companies
 of Israel, To give thanks to the name of Jehovah.
122:5 For there have sat thrones of judgment, Thrones of the
 house of David.
122:6 Ask ye the peace of Jerusalem, At rest are those loving
 thee.
122:7 Peace is in thy bulwark, rest in thy high places,
122:8 For the sake of my brethren and my companions, Let me
 speak, I pray thee, `Peace [be] in thee.'
122:9 For the sake of the house of Jehovah our God, I seek good
 for thee!
123:1 A Song of the Ascents. Unto Thee I have lifted up mine
 eyes, O dweller in the heavens.
123:2 Lo, as eyes of men-servants [Are] unto the hand of their
 masters, As eyes of a maid-servant [Are] unto the hand of her
 mistress, So [are] our eyes unto Jehovah our God, Till that He
 doth favour us.
123:3 Favour us, O Jehovah, favour us, For greatly have we been
 filled with contempt,
123:4 Greatly hath our soul been filled With the scorning of the
 easy ones, With the contempt of the arrogant!
124:1 A Song of the Ascents, by David. Save [for] Jehovah -- who
 hath been for us, (Pray, let Israel say),
124:2 Save [for] Jehovah -- who hath been for us, In the rising
 up of man against us,
124:3 Then alive they had swallowed us up, In the burning of
 their anger against us,
124:4 Then the waters had overflowed us, The stream passed over
 our soul,
124:5 Then passed over our soul had the proud waters.
124:6 Blessed [is] Jehovah who hath not given us, A prey to
 their teeth.
124:7 Our soul as a bird hath escaped from a snare of fowlers,
 The snare was broken, and we have escaped.
124:8 Our help [is] in the name of Jehovah, Maker of the heavens
 and earth!
125:1 A Song of the Ascents. Those trusting in Jehovah [are] as
 Mount Zion, It is not moved -- to the age it abideth.
125:2 Jerusalem! mountains [are] round about her, And Jehovah
 [is] round about His people, From henceforth even unto the age.
125:3 For the rod of wickedness resteth not On the lot of the
 righteous, That the righteous put not forth on iniquity their
 hands.
125:4 Do good, O Jehovah, to the good, And to the upright in
 their hearts.
125:5 As to those turning [to] their crooked ways, Jehovah
 causeth them to go with workers of iniquity. Peace on Israel!
126:1 A Song of the Ascents. In Jehovah's turning back [to] the
 captivity of Zion, We have been as dreamers.
126:2 Then filled [with] laughter is our mouth, And our tongue
 [with] singing, Then do they say among nations, `Jehovah did
 great things with these.'
126:3 Jehovah did great things with us, We have been joyful.
126:4 Turn again, O Jehovah, [to] our captivity, As streams in
 the south.
126:5 Those sowing in tears, with singing do reap,
126:6 Whoso goeth on and weepeth, Bearing the basket of seed,
 Surely cometh in with singing, bearing his sheaves!
127:1 A Song of the Ascents, by Solomon. If Jehovah doth not
 build the house, In vain have its builders laboured at it, If
 Jehovah doth not watch a city, In vain hath a watchman waked.
127:2 Vain for you who are rising early, Who delay sitting,
 eating the bread of griefs, So He giveth to His beloved one
 sleep.
127:3 Lo, an inheritance of Jehovah [are] sons, A reward [is]
 the fruit of the womb.
127:4 As arrows in the hand of a mighty one, So [are] the sons
 of the young men.
127:5 O the happiness of the man Who hath filled his quiver with
 them, They are not ashamed, For they speak with enemies in the
 gate!
128:1 A Song of the Ascents. O the happiness of every one
 fearing Jehovah, Who is walking in His ways.
128:2 The labour of thy hands thou surely eatest, Happy [art]
 thou, and good [is] to thee.
128:3 Thy wife [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of thy
 house, Thy sons as olive plants around thy table.
128:4 Lo, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing Jehovah.
128:5 Jehovah doth bless thee out of Zion, Look, then, on the
 good of Jerusalem, All the days of thy life,
128:6 And see the sons of thy sons! Peace on Israel!
129:1 A Song of the Ascents. Often they distressed me from my
 youth, Pray, let Israel say:
129:2 Often they distressed me from my youth, Yet they have not
 prevailed over me.
129:3 Over my back have ploughers ploughed, They have made long
 their furrows.
129:4 Jehovah [is] righteous, He hath cut asunder cords of the
 wicked.
129:5 Confounded and turn backward do all hating Zion.
129:6 They are as grass of the roofs, That before it was drawn
 out withereth,
129:7 That hath not filled the hand of a reaper, And the bosom
 of a binder of sheaves.
129:8 And the passers by have not said, `The blessing of Jehovah
 [is] on you, We blessed you in the Name of Jehovah!'
130:1 A Song of the Ascents. From depths I have called Thee,
 Jehovah.
130:2 Lord, hearken to my voice, Thine ears are attentive to the
 voice of my supplications.
130:3 If iniquities Thou dost observe, O Lord, who doth stand?
130:4 But with Thee [is] forgiveness, that Thou mayest be
 feared.
130:5 I hoped [for] Jehovah -- hoped hath my soul, And for His
 word I have waited.
130:6 My soul [is] for the Lord, More than those watching for
 morning, Watching for morning!
130:7 Israel doth wait on Jehovah, For with Jehovah [is]
 kindness, And abundant with Him [is] redemption.
130:8 And He doth redeem Israel from all his iniquities!
131:1 A Song of the Ascents, by David. Jehovah, my heart hath
 not been haughty, Nor have mine eyes been high, Nor have I
 walked in great things, And in things too wonderful for me.
131:2 Have I not compared, and kept silent my soul, As a weaned
 one by its mother? As a weaned one by me [is] my soul.
131:3 Israel doth wait on Jehovah, From henceforth, and unto the
 age!
132:1 A Song of the Ascents. Remember, Jehovah, for David, all
 his afflictions.
132:2 Who hath sworn to Jehovah. He hath vowed to the Mighty One
 of Jacob:
132:3 `If I enter into the tent of my house, If I go up on the
 couch of my bed,
132:4 If I give sleep to mine eyes, To mine eyelids -- slumber,
132:5 Till I do find a place for Jehovah, Tabernacles for the
 Mighty One of Jacob.
132:6 `Lo, we have heard it in Ephratah, We have found it in the
 fields of the forest.
132:7 We come in to His tabernacles, We bow ourselves at His
 footstool.
132:8 Arise, O Jehovah, to Thy rest, Thou, and the ark of Thy
 strength,
132:9 Thy priests do put on righteousness, And Thy pious ones
 cry aloud.
132:10 For the sake of David Thy servant, Turn not back the face
 of Thine anointed.
132:11 Jehovah hath sworn truth to David, He turneth not back
 from it: Of the fruit of thy body, I set on the throne for
 thee.
132:12 If thy sons keep My covenant, And My testimonies that I
 teach them, Their sons also for ever and ever, Do sit on the
 throne for thee.
132:13 For Jehovah hath fixed on Zion, He hath desired [it] for
 a seat to Himself,
132:14 This [is] My rest for ever and ever, Here do I sit, for I
 have desired it.
132:15 Her provision I greatly bless, Her needy ones I satisfy
 [with] bread,
132:16 And her priests I clothe [with] salvation, And her pious
 ones do sing aloud.
132:17 There I cause to spring up a horn for David, I have
 arranged a lamp for Mine anointed.
132:18 His enemies I do clothe [with] shame, And upon him doth
 his crown flourish!
133:1 A Song of the Ascents, by David. Lo, how good and how
 pleasant The dwelling of brethren -- even together!
133:2 As the good oil on the head, Coming down on the beard, the
 beard of Aaron, That cometh down on the skirt of his robes,
133:3 As dew of Hermon -- That cometh down on hills of Zion, For
 there Jehovah commanded the blessing -- Life unto the age!
134:1 A Song of the Ascents. Lo, bless Jehovah, all servants of
 Jehovah, Who are standing in the house of Jehovah by night.
134:2 Lift up your hands [in] the sanctuary, And bless ye
 Jehovah.
134:3 Jehovah doth bless thee out of Zion, The maker of the
 heavens and earth!
135:1 Praise ye Jah! Praise ye the name of Jehovah, Praise, ye
 servants of Jehovah,
135:2 Who are standing in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of
 the house of our God.
135:3 Praise ye Jah! for Jehovah [is] good, Sing praise to His
 name, for [it is] pleasant.
135:4 For Jacob hath Jah chosen for Himself, Israel for His
 peculiar treasure.
135:5 For I have known that great [is] Jehovah, Yea, our Lord
 [is] above all gods.
135:6 All that Jehovah pleased He hath done, In the heavens and
 in earth, In the seas and all deep places,
135:7 Causing vapours to ascend from the end of the earth,
 Lightnings for the rain He hath made, Bringing forth wind from
 His treasures.
135:8 Who smote the first-born of Egypt, From man unto beast.
135:9 He sent tokens and wonders into thy midst, O Egypt, On
 Pharaoh and on all his servants.
135:10 Who smote many nations, and slew strong kings,
135:11 Even Sihon king of the Amorite, And Og king of Bashan,
 And all kingdoms of Canaan.
135:12 And He gave their land an inheritance, An inheritance to
 Israel His people,
135:13 O Jehovah, Thy name [is] to the age, O Jehovah, Thy
 memorial to all generations.
135:14 For Jehovah doth judge His people, And for His servants
 comforteth Himself.
135:15 The idols of the nations [are] silver and gold, Work of
 the hands of man.
135:16 A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have,
 and they see not,
135:17 Ears they have, and they give not ear, Nose -- there is
 no breath in their mouth!
135:18 Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in
 them.
135:19 O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah, O house of Aaron,
 bless ye Jehovah,
135:20 O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah, Those fearing Jehovah,
 bless ye Jehovah.
135:21 Blessed [is] Jehovah from Zion, Inhabiting Jerusalem --
 praise ye Jah!
136:1 Give ye thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age [is]
 His kindness.
136:2 Give ye thanks to the God of gods, For to the age [is] His
 kindness.

 His kindness.

 age [is] His kindness.

 [is] His kindness.
136:6 To Him spreading the earth over the waters, For to the age
 [is] His kindness.
136:7 To Him making great lights, For to the age [is] His
 kindness.
136:8 The sun to rule by day, For to the age [is] His kindness.
136:9 The moon and stars to rule by night, For to the age [is]
 His kindness.
136:10 To Him smiting Egypt in their first-born, For to the age
 [is] His kindness.
136:11 And bringing forth Israel from their midst, For to the
 age [is] His kindness.
136:12 By a strong hand, and a stretched-out-arm, For to the age
 [is] His kindness.
136:13 To Him cutting the sea of Suph into parts, For to the age
 [is] His kindness,
136:14 And caused Israel to pass through its midst, For to the
 age [is] His kindness,
136:15 And shook out Pharaoh and his force in the sea of Suph,
 For to the age [is] His kindness.
136:16 To Him leading His people in a wilderness, For to the age
 [is] His kindness.
136:17 To Him smiting great kings, For to the age [is] His
 kindness.
136:18 Yea, He doth slay honourable kings, For to the age [is]
 His kindness.
136:19 Even Sihon king of the Amorite, For to the age [is] His
 kindness.
136:20 And Og king of Bashan, For to the age [is] His kindness.
136:21 And He gave their land for inheritance, For to the age
 [is] His kindness.
136:22 An inheritance to Israel His servant, For to the age [is]
 His kindness.
136:23 Who in our lowliness hath remembered us, For to the age
 [is] His kindness.
136:24 And He delivereth us from our adversaries, For to the age
 [is] His kindness.
136:25 Giving food to all flesh, For to the age [is] His
 kindness.
136:26 Give ye thanks to the God of the heavens, For to the age
 [is] His kindness!
137:1 By rivers of Babylon -- There we did sit, Yea, we wept
 when we remembered Zion.
137:2 On willows in its midst we hung our harps.
137:3 For there our captors asked us the words of a song, And
 our spoilers -- joy: `Sing ye to us of a song of Zion.'
137:4 How do we sing the song of Jehovah, On the land of a
 stranger?
137:5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, my right hand forgetteth!
137:6 My tongue doth cleave to my palate, If I do not remember
 thee, If I do not exalt Jerusalem above my chief joy.
137:7 Remember, Jehovah, for the sons of Edom, The day of
 Jerusalem, Those saying, `Rase, rase to its foundation!'
137:8 O daughter of Babylon, O destroyed one, O the happiness of
 him who repayeth to thee thy deed, That thou hast done to us.
137:9 O the happiness of him who doth seize, And hath dashed thy
 sucklings on the rock!
138:1 By David. I confess Thee, with all my heart, Before the
 gods I do praise Thee.
138:2 I bow myself toward Thy holy temple, And I confess Thy
 name, For Thy kindness, and for Thy truth, For Thou hast made
 great Thy saying above all Thy name.
138:3 In the day I called, when Thou dost answer me, Thou dost
 strengthen me in my soul [with] strength.
138:4 O Jehovah, all kings of earth confess Thee, When they have
 heard the sayings of Thy mouth.
138:5 And they sing in the ways of Jehovah, For great [is] the
 honour of Jehovah.
138:6 For high [is] Jehovah, and the lowly He seeth, And the
 haughty from afar He knoweth.
138:7 If I walk in the midst of distress Thou quickenest me,
 Against the anger of mine enemies Thou sendest forth Thy hand,
 And Thy right hand doth save me.
138:8 Jehovah doth perfect for me, O Jehovah, Thy kindness [is]
 to the age, The works of Thy hands let not fall!
139:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm by David. Jehovah, Thou hast
 searched me, and knowest.
139:2 Thou -- Thou hast known my sitting down, And my rising up,
 Thou hast attended to my thoughts from afar.
139:3 My path and my couch Thou hast fanned, And [with] all my
 ways hast been acquainted.
139:4 For there is not a word in my tongue, Lo, O Jehovah, Thou
 hast known it all!
139:5 Behind and before Thou hast besieged me, And Thou dost
 place on me Thy hand.
139:6 Knowledge too wonderful for me, It hath been set on high,
 I am not able for it.
139:7 Whither do I go from Thy Spirit? And whither from Thy face
 do I flee?
139:8 If I ascend the heavens -- there Thou [art], And spread
 out a couch in Sheol, lo, Thee!
139:9 I take the wings of morning, I dwell in the uttermost part
 of the sea,
139:10 Also there Thy hand doth lead me, And Thy right hand doth
 hold me.
139:11 And I say, `Surely darkness bruiseth me, Then night [is]
 light to me.
139:12 Also darkness hideth not from Thee, And night as day
 shineth, as [is] darkness so [is] light.
139:13 For Thou -- Thou hast possessed my reins, Thou dost cover
 me in my mother's belly.
139:14 I confess Thee, because that [with] wonders I have been
 distinguished. Wonderful [are] Thy works, And my soul is
 knowing [it] well.
139:15 My substance was not hid from Thee, When I was made in
 secret, Curiously wrought in the lower part of earth.
139:16 Mine unformed substance Thine eyes saw, And on Thy book
 all of them are written, The days they were formed -- And not
 one among them.
139:17 And to me how precious have been Thy thoughts, O God, how
 great hath been their sum!
139:18 I recount them! than the sand they are more, I have
 waked, and I am still with Thee.
139:19 Dost Thou slay, O God, the wicked? Then, men of blood,
 turn aside from me!
139:20 Who exchange Thee for wickedness, Lifted up to vanity
 [are] Thine enemies.
139:21 Do not I hate, Jehovah, those hating Thee? And with Thy
 withstanders grieve myself?
139:22 [With] perfect hatred I have hated them, Enemies they
 have become to me.
139:23 Search me, O God, and know my heart, Try me, and know my
 thoughts,
139:24 And see if a grievous way be in me, And lead me in a way
 age-during!
140:1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. Deliver me, O
 Jehovah, from an evil man, From one of violence Thou keepest
 me.
140:2 Who have devised evils in the heart, All the day they
 assemble [for] wars.
140:3 They sharpened their tongue as a serpent, Poison of an
 adder [is] under their lips. Selah.
140:4 Preserve me, Jehovah, from the hands of the wicked, From
 one of violence Thou keepest me, Who have devised to overthrow
 my steps.
140:5 The proud hid a snare for me -- and cords, They spread a
 net by the side of the path, Snares they have set for me.
 Selah.
140:6 I have said to Jehovah, `My God [art] Thou, Hear, Jehovah,
 the voice of my supplications.'
140:7 O Jehovah, my Lord, strength of my salvation, Thou hast
 covered my head in the day of armour.
140:8 Grant not, O Jehovah, the desires of the wicked, His
 wicked device bring not forth, They are high. Selah.
140:9 The chief of my surrounders, The perverseness of their
 lips covereth them.
140:10 They cause to fall on themselves burning coals, Into fire
 He doth cast them, Into deep pits -- they arise not.
140:11 A talkative man is not established in the earth, One of
 violence -- evil hunteth to overflowing.
140:12 I have known that Jehovah doth execute The judgment of
 the afflicted, The judgment of the needy.
140:13 Only -- the righteous give thanks to Thy name, The
 upright do dwell with Thy presence!
141:1 A Psalm, by David. O Jehovah, I have called Thee, haste to
 me, Give ear [to] my voice when I call to Thee.
141:2 My prayer is prepared -- incense before Thee, The lifting
 up of my hands -- the evening present.
141:3 Set, O Jehovah, a watch for my mouth, Watch Thou over the
 door of my lips.
141:4 Incline not my heart to an evil thing, To do habitually
 actions in wickedness, With men working iniquity, Yea, I eat
 not of their pleasant things.
141:5 The righteous doth beat me [in] kindness. And doth reprove
 me, Oil of the head my head disalloweth not, For still my
 prayer [is] about their vexations.
141:6 Their judges have been released by the sides of a rock,
 And they have heard my sayings, For they have been pleasant.
141:7 As one tilling and ripping up in the land, Have our bones
 been scattered at the command of Saul.
141:8 But to Thee, O Jehovah, my Lord, [are] mine eyes, In Thee
 I have trusted, Make not bare my soul.
141:9 Keep me from the gin they laid for me, Even snares of
 workers of iniquity.
141:10 The wicked fall in their nets together, till I pass over!
142:1 An Instruction of David, a Prayer when he is in the cave.
 My voice [is] unto Jehovah, I cry, My voice [is] unto Jehovah,
 I entreat grace.
142:2 I pour forth before Him my meditation, My distress before
 Him I declare.
142:3 When my spirit hath been feeble in me, Then Thou hast
 known my path; In the way [in] which I walk, They have hid a
 snare for me.
142:4 Looking on the right hand -- and seeing, And I have none
 recognizing; Perished hath refuge from me, There is none
 inquiring for my soul.
142:5 I have cried unto thee, O Jehovah, I have said, `Thou
 [art] my refuge, My portion in the land of the living.'
142:6 Attend Thou unto my loud cry, For I have become very low,
 Deliver Thou me from my pursuers, For they have been stronger
 than I.
142:7 Bring forth from prison my soul to confess Thy name, The
 righteous do compass me about, When Thou conferrest benefits
 upon me!
143:1 A Psalm of David. O Jehovah, hear my prayer, Give ear unto
 my supplications, In Thy faithfulness answer me -- in Thy
 righteousness.
143:2 And enter not into judgment with Thy servant, For no one
 living is justified before Thee.
143:3 For an enemy hath pursued my soul, He hath bruised to the
 earth my life, He hath caused me to dwell in dark places, As
 the dead of old.
143:4 And my spirit in me is become feeble, Within me is my
 heart become desolate.
143:5 I have remembered days of old, I have meditated on all
 Thine acts, On the work of Thy hand I muse.
143:6 I have spread forth my hands unto Thee, My soul [is] as a
 weary land for Thee. Selah.
143:7 Haste, answer me, O Jehovah, My spirit hath been consumed,
 Hide not Thou Thy face from me, Or I have been compared with
 those going down [to] the pit.
143:8 Cause me to hear in the morning Thy kindness, For in Thee
 I have trusted, Cause me to know the way that I go, For unto
 Thee I have lifted up my soul.
143:9 Deliver me from mine enemies, O Jehovah, Near Thee I am
 covered.
143:10 Teach me to do Thy good pleasure, For Thou [art] my God
 -- Thy Spirit [is] good, Lead me into a land of uprightness.
143:11 For Thy name's sake O Jehovah, Thou dost quicken me, In
 Thy righteousness, Thou bringest out from distress my soul,
143:12 And in Thy kindness cuttest off mine enemies, And hast
 destroyed all the adversaries of my soul, For I [am] Thy
 servant!
144:1 By David. Blessed [is] Jehovah my rock, who is teaching My
 hands for war, my fingers for battle.
144:2 My kind one, and my bulwark, My tower, and my deliverer,
 My shield, and in whom I have trusted, Who is subduing my
 people under me!
144:3 Jehovah, what [is] man that Thou knowest him? Son of man,
 that Thou esteemest him?
144:4 Man to vanity hath been like, His days [are] as a shadow
 passing by.
144:5 Jehovah, incline Thy heavens and come down, Strike against
 mountains, and they smoke.
144:6 Send forth lightning, and scatter them, Send forth Thine
 arrows, and trouble them,
144:7 Send forth Thy hand from on high, Free me, and deliver me
 from many waters, From the hand of sons of a stranger,
144:8 Because their mouth hath spoken vanity, And their right
 hand [is] a right hand of falsehood.
144:9 O God, a new song I sing to Thee, On a psaltery of ten
 strings I sing praise to Thee.
144:10 Who is giving deliverance to kings, Who is freeing David
 His servant from the sword of evil.
144:11 Free me, and deliver me From the hand of sons of a
 stranger, Because their mouth hath spoken vanity, And their
 right hand [is] a right hand of falsehood,
144:12 Because our sons [are] as plants, Becoming great in their
 youth, Our daughters as hewn stones, Polished -- the likeness
 of a palace,
144:13 Our garners [are] full, bringing out from kind to kind,
 Our flocks are bringing forth thousands, Ten thousands in our
 out-places,
144:14 Our oxen are carrying, there is no breach, And there is
 no outgoing, And there is no crying in our broad places.
144:15 O the happiness of the people that is thus, O the
 happiness of the people whose God [is] Jehovah!
145:1 Praise by David. I exalt Thee, my God, O king, And bless
 Thy name to the age and for ever.

 and for ever.

 of the majesty of His kingdom.

 [is] in all generations.
145:14 Jehovah is supporting all who are falling, And raising up
 all who are bowed down.
145:15 The eyes of all unto Thee do look, And Thou art giving to
 them their food in its season,
145:16 Opening Thy hand, and satisfying The desire of every
 living thing.
145:17 Righteous [is] Jehovah in all His ways, And kind in all
 His works.
145:18 Near [is] Jehovah to all those calling Him, To all who
 call Him in truth.
145:19 The desire of those fearing Him He doth, And their cry He
 heareth, and saveth them.
145:20 Jehovah preserveth all those loving Him, And all the
 wicked He destroyeth.

 doth bless His holy name, To the age and for ever!

146:2 I praise Jehovah during my life, I sing praise to my God
 while I exist.
146:3 Trust not in princes -- in a son of man, For he hath no
 deliverance.
146:4 His spirit goeth forth, he returneth to his earth, In
 that day have his thoughts perished.
146:5 O the happiness of him Who hath the God of Jacob for his
 help, His hope [is] on Jehovah his God,
146:6 Making the heavens and earth, The sea and all that [is] in
 them, Who is keeping truth to the age,
146:7 Doing judgment for the oppressed, Giving bread to the
 hungry.
146:8 Jehovah is loosing the prisoners, Jehovah is opening (the
 eyes of) the blind, Jehovah is raising the bowed down, Jehovah
 is loving the righteous,
146:9 Jehovah is preserving the strangers, The fatherless and
 widow He causeth to stand, And the way of the wicked He turneth
 upside down.
146:10 Jehovah doth reign to the age, Thy God, O Zion, to
 generation and generation, Praise ye Jah!

 pleasant -- comely [is] praise.

 He gathereth.

 names.

 understanding there is no narration.

 wicked unto the earth.
147:7 Answer ye to Jehovah with thanksgiving, Sing ye to our God
 with a harp.
147:8 Who is covering the heavens with clouds, Who is preparing
 for the earth rain, Who is causing grass to spring up [on]
 mountains,
147:9 Giving to the beast its food, To the young of the ravens
 that call.
147:10 Not in the might of the horse doth He delight, Not in the
 legs of a man is He pleased.
147:11 Jehovah is pleased with those fearing Him, With those
 waiting for His kindness.
147:12 Glorify, O Jerusalem, Jehovah, Praise thy God, O Zion.

 He satisfieth Thee.
147:15 Who is sending forth His saying [on] earth, Very speedily
 doth His word run.
147:16 Who is giving snow like wool, Hoar-frost as ashes He
 scattereth.
147:17 Casting forth His ice like morsels, Before His cold who
 doth stand?
147:18 He sendeth forth His word and melteth them, He causeth
 His wind to blow -- the waters flow.

 with fetters of iron,

 for all his saints. Praise ye Jah!
