(1) 'O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good, For His mercy endureth for ever.'

(2) So let the redeemed of the LORD say, Whom He hath redeemed from the hand of the adversary;

(3) And gathered them out of the lands, From the east and from the west, From the north and from the sea.

(4) They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way; They found no city of habitation.

(5) Hungry and thirsty, Their soul fainted in them.

(6) Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, And He delivered them out of their distresses.

(7) And He led them by a straight way, That they might go to a city of habitation.

(8) Let them give thanks unto the LORD for His mercy, And for His wonderful works to the children of men!

(9) For He hath satisfied the longing soul, And the hungry soul He hath filled with good.

(10) Such as sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, Being bound in affliction and iron—

(11) Because they rebelled against the words of God, And contemned the counsel of the Most High.

(12) Therefore He humbled their heart with travail, They stumbled, and there was none to help—

(13) They cried unto the LORD in their trouble, And He saved them out of their distresses.

(14) He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, And broke their bands in sunder. .

(15) Let them give thanks unto the LORD for His mercy, And for His wonderful works to the children of men!

(16) For He hath broken the gates of brass, And cut the bars of iron in sunder.

(17) Crazed because of the way of their transgression, And afflicted because of their iniquities—

(18) Their soul abhorred all manner of food, And they drew near unto the gates of death—

(19) They cried unto the LORD in their trouble, And He saved them out of their distresses;

(20) He sent His word, and healed them, And delivered them from their graves.

(21) Let them give thanks unto the LORD for His mercy, And for His wonderful works to the children of men!

(22) And let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, And declare His works with singing.

(23) They that go down to the sea in ships, That do business in great waters—

(24) These saw the works of the LORD, And His wonders in the deep;

(25) For He commanded, and raised the stormy wind, Which lifted up the waves thereof;

(26) They mounted up to the heaven, they went down to the deeps; Their soul melted away because of trouble;

(27) They reeled to and fro, and staggered like a drunken man, And all their wisdom was swallowed up—

(28) They cried unto the LORD in their trouble, And He brought them out of their distresses.

(29) He made the storm a calm, So that the waves thereof were still.

(30) Then were they glad because they were quiet, And He led them unto their desired haven.

(31) Let them give thanks unto the LORD for His mercy, And for His wonderful works to the children of men!

(32) Let them exalt Him also in the assembly of the people, And praise Him in the seat of the elders.

(33) He turneth rivers into a wilderness, And watersprings into a thirsty ground;

(34) A fruitful land into a salt waste, For the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

(35) He turneth a wilderness into a pool of water, And a dry land into watersprings.

(36) And there He maketh the hungry to dwell, And they establish a city of habitation;

(37) And sow fields, and plant vineyards, Which yield fruits of increase.

(38) He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly, And suffereth not their cattle to decrease.

(39) Again, they are minished and dwindle away Through oppression of evil and sorrow.

(40) He poureth contempt upon princes, And causeth them to wander in the waste, where there is no way.

(41) Yet setteth He the needy on high from affliction, And maketh his families like a flock.

(42) The upright see it, and are glad; And all iniquity stoppeth her mouth.

(43) Whoso is wise, let him observe these things, And let them consider the mercies of the LORD.

(1) A Song, a Psalm of David.

(2) My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises, even with my glory.

(3) Awake, psaltery and harp; I will awake the dawn.

(4) I will give thanks unto Thee, O LORD, among the peoples; And I will sing praises unto Thee among the nations.

(5) For Thy mercy is great above the heavens, And Thy truth reacheth unto the skies.

(6) Be Thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; And Thy glory be above all the earth.

(7) That Thy beloved may be delivered, Save with Thy right hand, and answer me.

(8) God spoke in His holiness, that I would exult; That I would divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

(9) Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the defence of my head; Judah is my sceptre.

(10) Moab is my washpot; Upon Edom do I cast my shoe; Over Philistia do I cry aloud.

(11) Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will lead me unto Edom?

(12) Hast not Thou cast us off, O God? And Thou goest not forth, O God, with our hosts?

(13) Give us help against the adversary; For vain is the help of man.

(14) Through God we shall do valiantly; For He it is that will tread down our adversaries.

(1) For the Leader. A Psalm of David. O God of my praise, keep not silence;

(2) For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit have they opened against me; They have spoken unto me with a lying tongue.

(3) They compassed me about also with words of hatred, And fought against me without a cause.

(4) In return for my love they are my adversaries; But I am all prayer.

(5) And they have laid upon me evil for good, And hatred for my love:

(6) ’Set Thou a wicked man over him; And let an adversary stand at his right hand.

(7) When he is judged, let him go forth condemned; And let his prayer be turned into sin.

(8) Let his days be few; Let another take his charge.

(9) Let his children be fatherless, And his wife a widow.

(10) Let his children be vagabonds, and beg; And let them seek their bread out of their desolate places.

(11) Let the creditor distrain all that he hath; And let strangers make spoil of his labour.

(12) Let there be none to extend kindness unto him; Neither let there be any to be gracious unto his fatherless children.

(13) Let his posterity be cut off; In the generation following let their name be blotted out.

(14) Let the iniquity of his fathers be brought to remembrance unto the LORD; And let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

(15) Let them be before the LORD continually, That He may cut off the memory of them from the earth.

(16) Because that he remembered not to do kindness, But persecuted the poor and needy man, And the broken in heart he was ready to slay.

(17) Yea, he loved cursing, and it came unto him; And he delighted not in blessing, and it is far from him.

(18) He clothed himself also with cursing as with his raiment, And it is come into his inward parts like water, And like oil into his bones.

(19) Let it be unto him as the garment which he putteth on, And for the girdle wherewith he is girded continually.'

(20) This would mine adversaries effect from the LORD, And they that speak evil against my soul.

(21) But Thou, O GOD the Lord, deal with me for Thy name's sake; Because Thy mercy is good, deliver Thou me.

(22) For I am poor and needy, And my heart is wounded within me.

(23) I am gone like the shadow when it lengtheneth; I am shaken off as the locust.

(24) My knees totter through fasting; And my flesh is lean, and hath no fatness.

(25) I am become also a taunt unto them; When they see me, they shake their head.

(26) Help me, O LORD my God; O save me according to Thy mercy;

(27) That they may know that this is Thy hand; That Thou, LORD, hast done it.

(28) Let them curse, but bless Thou; When they arise, they shall be put to shame, but Thy servant shall rejoice.

(29) Mine adversaries shall be clothed with confusion, And shall put on their own shame as a robe.

(30) I will give great thanks unto the LORD with my mouth; Yea, I will praise Him among the multitude;

(31) Because He standeth at the right hand of the needy, To save him from them that judge his soul.

(1) A Psalm of David. The LORD saith unto my lord: ‘Sit thou at My right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.'

(2) The rod of Thy strength the LORD will send out of Zion: 'Rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.'

(3) Thy people offer themselves willingly in the day of thy warfare; in adornments of holiness, from the womb of the dawn, Thine is the dew of thy youth.

(4) The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent: 'Thou art a priest for ever After the manner of Melchizedek.'

(5) The Lord at thy right hand Doth crush kings in the day of His wrath.

(6) He will judge among the nations; He filleth it with the dead bodies, He crusheth the head over a wide land.

(7) He will drink of the brook in the way; Therefore will he lift up the head.

(1) Hallelujah. I will give thanks unto the LORD with my whole heart, . In the council of the upright, and in the congregation.

(2) The works of the LORD are great, Sought out of all them that have delight therein.

(3) His work is glory and majesty; And His righteousness endureth for ever.

(4) He hath made a memorial for His wonderful works; The LORD is gracious and full of compassion.

(5) He hath given food unto them that fear Him; He will ever be mindful of His covenant.

(6) He hath declared to His people the power of His works, In giving them the heritage of the nations.

(7) The works of His hands are truth and justice; All His precepts are sure.

(8) They are established for ever and ever, They are done in truth and uprightness.

(9) He hath sent redemption unto His people; He hath commanded His covenant for ever; Holy and awful is His name.

(10) The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all they that do thereafter; His praise endureth for ever.

(1) Hallelujah. Happy is the man that feareth the LORD, That delighteth greatly in His commandments.

(2) His seed shall be mighty upon earth; The generation of the upright shall be blessed.

(3) Wealth and riches are in his house; And his merit endureth for ever.

(4) Unto the upright He shineth as a light in the darkness, Gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

(5) Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth, That ordereth his affairs rightfully.

(6) For he shall never be moved; The righteous shall be had in everlasting remembrance.

(7) He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; His heart is stedfast, trusting in the LORD.

(8) His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, Until he gaze upon his adversaries.

(9) He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the needy; His righteousness endureth for ever; His horn shall be exalted in honour.

(10) The wicked shall see it, and be vexed; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away; the desire of the wicked shall perish.

(6) That looketh down low Upon heaven and upon the earth?

(7) Who raiseth up the poor out of the dust, And lifteth up the needy out of the dunghill;

(8) That He may set him with princes, Even with the princes of His people.

(9) Who maketh the barren woman to dwell in her house As a joyful mother of children. Hallelujah.

(3) The sea saw it, and fled; The Jordan turned backward.

(4) The mountains skipped like rams, The hills like young sheep.

(5) What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? Thou Jordan, that thou turnest backward?

(6) Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams; Ye hills, like young sheep?

(7) Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, At the presence of the God of Jacob;

(8) Who turned the rock into a pool of water, The flint into a fountain of waters.

(1) Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, But unto Thy name give glory, For Thy mercy, and for Thy truth's sake.

(2) Wherefore should the nations say: 'Where is now their God?'

(3) But our God is in the heavens; Whatsoever pleased Him He hath done.

(4) Their idols are silver and gold, The work of men's hands.

(5) They have mouths, but they speak not; Eyes have they, but they see not;

(6) They have ears, but they hear not; Noses have they, but they smell not;

(7) They have hands, but they handle not; Feet have they, but they walk not; Neither speak they with their throat. .

(8) They that make them shall be like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth in them.

(9) O Israel, trust thou in the LORD! He is their help and their shield!

(10) O house of Aaron, trust ye in the LORD! He is their help and their shield!

(11) Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.

(12) The LORD hath been mindful of us, He will bless— He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron.

(13) He will bless them that fear the LORD, Both small and great.

(14) The LORD increase you more and more, You and your children.

(15) Blessed be ye of the LORD Who made heaven and earth.

(16) The heavens are the heavens of the LORD; But the earth hath He given to the children of men.

(17) The dead praise not the LORD, Neither any that go down into silence;

(18) But we will bless the LORD From this time forth and for ever. Hallelujah.

(1) I love that the LORD should hear my voice and my supplications.

(2) Because He hath inclined His ear unto me, Therefore will I call upon Him all my days.

(3) The cords of death compassed me, And the straits of the nether-world got hold upon me; I found trouble and sorrow.

(4) But I called upon the name of the LORD: 'I beseech thee, O LORD, deliver my soul.'

(5) Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; Yea, our God is compassionate.

(6) The LORD preserveth the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me.

(7) Return, O my soul, unto Thy rest; For the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.

(8) For thou hast delivered my soul from death, Mine eyes from tears, And my feet from stumbling.

(9) I shall walk before the LORD In the lands of the living.

(10) I trusted even when I spoke: 'I am greatly afflicted.'

(11) I said in my haste: 'All men are liars.'

(12) How can I repay unto the LORD All His bountiful dealings toward me?

(13) I will lift up the cup of salvation, And call upon the name of the LORD.

(14) My vows will I pay unto the LORD, Yea, in the presence of all His people.

(15) Precious in the sight of the LORD Is the death of His saints.

(16) I beseech Thee, O LORD, for I am Thy servant; I am Thy servant, the son of Thy handmaid; Thou hast loosed my bands.

(17) I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call upon the name of the LORD.

(18) I will pay my vows unto the LORD, Yea, in the presence of all His people;

(19) In the courts of the LORD’S house, In the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah.

(1) 'O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good, For His mercy endureth for ever.

(2) So let Israel now say, For His mercy endureth for ever,

(3) So let the house of Aaron now say, For His mercy endureth for ever.

(4) So let them now that fear the LORD say, For His mercy endureth for ever.

(5) Out of my straits I called upon the LORD; He answered me with great enlargement.

(6) The LORD is for me; I will not fear; What can man do unto me?

(7) The LORD is for me as my helper; And I shall gaze upon them that hate me.

(8) It is better to take refuge in the LORD Than to trust in man.

(9) It is better to take refuge in the LORD Than to trust in princes.

(10) All nations compass me about; Verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.

(11) They compass me about, yea, they compass me about; Verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.

(12) They compass me about like bees; They are quenched as the fire of thorns; Verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.

(13) Thou didst thrust sore at me that I might fall; But the LORD helped me.

(14) The LORD is my strength and song; And He is become my salvation.

(15) The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; The right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.

(16) The right hand of the LORD is exalted; The right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.

(17) I shall not die, but live, And declare the works of the LORD.

(18) The LORD hath chastened me sore; But He hath not given me over unto death.

(19) Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto the LORD.

(20) This is the gate of the LORD; The righteous shall enter into it.

(21) I will give thanks unto Thee, for Thou hast answered me, And art become my salvation.

(22) The stone which the builders rejected Is become the chief corner-stone.

(23) This is the LORD’S doing; It is marvellous in our eyes.

(24) This is the day which the LORD hath made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.

(25) We beseech Thee, O LORD, save now! We beseech Thee, O LORD, make us now to prosper!

(26) Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD; We bless you out of the house of the LORD.

(27) The LORD is God, and hath given us light; Order the festival procession with boughs, even unto the horns of the altar.

(28) Thou art my God, and I will give thanks unto Thee; Thou art my God, I will exalt Thee.

(29) O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good, For His mercy endureth for ever.

(1) ALEPH. Happy are they that are upright in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD.

(2) Happy are they that keep His testimonies, that seek Him with the whole heart.

(3) Yea, they do no unrighteousness; they walk in His ways.

(21) Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed, that do err from Thy commandments.

(22) Take away from me reproach and contempt; for I have kept Thy testimonies.

(23) Even though princes sit and talk against me, Thy servant doth meditate in Thy statutes.

(41) VAV. Let Thy mercies also come unto me, O LORD, even Thy salvation, according to Thy word;

(42) That I may have an answer for him that taunteth me; for I trust in Thy word.

(43) And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I hope in Thine ordinances;

(44) So shall I observe Thy law continually for ever and ever;

(45) And I will walk at ease, for I have sought Thy precepts;

(46) I will also speak of Thy testimonies before kings, and will not be ashamed.

(47) And I will delight myself in Thy commandments, which I have loved.

(48) I will lift up my hands also unto Thy commandments, which I have loved; And I will meditate in Thy statutes.

(49) ZAIN. Remember the word unto Thy servant, Because Thou hast made me to hope.

(50) This is my comfort in my affliction, that Thy word hath quickened me.

(51) The proud have had me greatly in derision; yet have I not turned aside from Thy law.

(52) I have remembered Thine ordinances which are of old, O LORD, and have comforted myself. .

(53) Burning indignation hath taken hold upon me, because of the wicked that forsake Thy law.

(54) Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.

(55) I have remembered Thy name, O LORD, in the night, and have observed Thy law.

(56) This I have had, that I have kept Thy precepts.

(57) HETH. My portion is the LORD, I have said that I would observe Thy words.

(58) I have entreated Thy favour with my whole heart; be gracious unto me according to Thy word.

(59) I considered my ways, and turned my feet unto Thy testimonies.

(60) I made haste, and delayed not, to observe Thy commandments.

(61) The bands of the wicked have enclosed me; but I have not forgotten Thy law.

(62) At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto Thee because of Thy righteous ordinances.

(63) I am a companion of all them that fear Thee, and of them that observe Thy precepts.

(64) The earth, O LORD, is full of Thy mercy; teach me Thy statutes.

(65) TETH. Thou hast dealt well with Thy servant, O LORD, according unto Thy word.

(66) Teach me good discernment and knowledge; for I have believed in Thy commandments.

(67) Before I was afflicted, I did err; But now I observe Thy word.

(68) Thou art good, and doest good; Teach me Thy statutes.

(69) The proud have forged a lie against me; But I with my whole heart will keep Thy precepts.

(70) Their heart is gross like fat; But I delight in Thy law.

(71) It is good for me that I have been afflicted, In order that I might learn Thy statutes.

(72) The law of Thy mouth is better unto me Than thousands of gold and silver.

(73) JOD. Thy hands have made me and fashioned me; Give me understanding, that I may learn Thy commandments.

(74) They that fear Thee shall see me and be glad, because I have hope in Thy word.

(75) I know, O LORD, that Thy judgments are righteous, and that in faithfulness Thou hast afflicted me. .

(79) Let those that fear Thee return unto me, and they that know Thy testimonies.

(80) Let my heart be undivided in Thy statutes, in order that I may not be put to shame.

(81) CAPH. My soul pineth for Thy salvation; in Thy word do I hope.

(82) Mine eyes fail for Thy word, Saying: 'When wilt Thou comfort me?'

(83) For I am become like a wine-skin in the smoke; yet do I not forget Thy statutes.

(84) How many are the days of Thy servant? When wilt Thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?

(85) The proud have digged pits for me, which is not according to Thy law.

(86) All Thy commandments are faithful; they persecute me for nought; help Thou me.

(87) They had almost consumed me upon earth; but as for me, I forsook not Thy precepts.

(88) Quicken me after Thy lovingkindness, and I will observe the testimony of Thy mouth.

(89) LAMED. For ever, O LORD, Thy word standeth fast in heaven.

(90) Thy faithfulness is unto all generations; Thou hast established the earth, and it standeth.

(91) They stand this day according to Thine ordinances; for all things are Thy servants.

(92) Unless Thy law had been my delight, I should then have perished in mine affliction.

(93) I will never forget Thy precepts; for with them Thou hast quickened me.

(94) I am Thine, save me; for I have sought Thy precepts.

(95) The wicked have waited for me to destroy me; but I will consider Thy testimonies.

(96) I have seen an end to every purpose; but Thy commandment is exceeding broad.

(97) MEM. O how love I Thy law! It is my meditation all the day.

(103) How sweet are Thy words unto my palate! Yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

(104) From Thy precepts I get understanding; Therefore I hate every false way.

(105) NUN. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, And a light unto my path.

(106) I have sworn, and have confirmed it, To observe Thy righteous ordinances.

(107) I am afflicted very much; Quicken me, O LORD, according unto Thy word.

(108) Accept, I beseech Thee, the freewill-offerings of my mouth, O LORD, And teach me Thine ordinances.

(109) My soul is continually in my hand; yet have I not forgotten Thy law.

(110) The wicked have laid a snare for me; yet went I not astray from Thy precepts.

(111) Thy testimonies have I taken as a heritage for ever; for they are the rejoicing of my heart.

(112) I have inclined my heart to perform Thy statutes, for ever, at every step.

(113) SAMECH. I hate them that are of a double mind; but Thy law do I love.

(114) Thou art my covert and my shield; in Thy word do I hope.

(115) Depart from me, ye evildoers; that I may keep the commandments of my God.

(116) Uphold me according unto Thy word, that I may live; and put me not to shame in my hope.

(117) Support Thou me, and I shall be saved; and I will occupy myself with Thy statutes continually.

(118) Thou hast made light of all them that err from Thy statutes; for their deceit is vain.

(4) I will not give sleep to mine eyes, Nor slumber to mine eyelids;

(5) Until I find out a place for the LORD, A dwelling-place for the Mighty One of Jacob.'

(9) Let Thy priests be clothed with righteousness; And let Thy saints shout for joy.

(10) For Thy servant David's sake Turn not away the face of Thine anointed.

(11) The LORD swore unto David in truth; He will not turn back from it: 'Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.

(12) If thy children keep My covenant And My testimony that I shall teach them, Their children also for ever shall sit upon thy throne.'

(13) For the LORD hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it for His habitation:

(14) 'This is My resting-place for ever; Here will I dwell; for I have desired it.

(15) I will abundantly bless her provision; I will give her needy bread in plenty.

(16) Her priests also will I clothe with salvation; And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

(17) There will I make a horn to shoot up unto David, There have I ordered a lamp for Mine anointed.

(18) His enemies will I clothe with shame; But upon himself shall his crown shine.'

(5) If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, Let my right hand forget her cunning.

(8) O daughter of Babylon, that art to be destroyed; Happy shall he be, that repayeth thee As thou hast served us.

(9) Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones Against the rock.

(2) I will bow down toward Thy holy temple, And give thanks unto Thy name for Thy mercy and for Thy truth; For Thou hast magnified Thy word above all Thy name.

(3) In the day that I called, Thou didst answer me; Thou didst encourage me in my soul with strength.

(4) All the kings of the earth shall give Thee thanks, O LORD, For they have heard the words of Thy mouth.

(5) Yea, they shall sing of the ways of the LORD; For great is the glory of the LORD.

(6) For though the LORD be high, yet regardeth He the lowly, And the haughty He knoweth from afar.

(7) Though I walk in the midst of trouble, Thou quickenest me; Thou stretchest forth Thy hand against the wrath of mine enemies, And Thy right hand doth save me.

(8) The LORD will accomplish that which concerneth me; Thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever; Forsake not the work of Thine own hands.

(1) For the Leader. A Psalm of David. O LORD, Thou hast searched me, and known me. .

(2) Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, Thou understandest my thought afar off.

(3) Thou measurest my going about and my lying down, And art acquainted with all my ways.

(4) For there is not a word in my tongue, But, lo, O LORD, Thou knowest it altogether.

(5) Thou hast hemmed me in behind and before, And laid Thy hand upon me.

(6) Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; Too high, I cannot attain unto it.

(7) Whither shall I go from Thy spirit? Or whither shall I flee from Thy presence?

(8) If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there; If I make my bed in the nether-world, behold, Thou art there.

(9) If I take the wings of the morning, And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

(10) Even there would Thy hand lead me, And Thy right hand would hold me.

(11) And if I say: ‘Surely the darkness shall envelop me, And the light about me shall be night';

(12) Even the darkness is not too dark for Thee, But the night shineth as the day; The darkness is even as the light.

(13) For Thou hast made my reins; Thou hast knit me together in my mother's womb.

(14) I will give thanks unto Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

(15) My frame was not hidden from Thee, When I was made in secret, And curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

(16) Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance, And in Thy book they were all written— Even the days that were fashioned, When as yet there was none of them.

(17) How weighty also are Thy thoughts unto me, O God! How great is the sum of them!

(18) If I would count them, they are more in number than the sand; Were I to come to the end of them, I would still be with Thee.

(19) If Thou but wouldest slay the wicked, O God— Depart from me therefore, ye men of blood;

(20) Who utter Thy name with wicked thought, They take it for falsehood, even Thine enemies— .

(21) Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate Thee? And do not I strive with those that rise up against Thee?

(22) I hate them with utmost hatred; I count them mine enemies.

(23) Search me, O God, and know my heart, Try me, and know my thoughts;

(24) And see if there be any way in me that is grievous, And lead me in the way everlasting.

(2) Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man; Preserve me from the violent man;

(3) Who devise evil things in their heart; Every day do they stir up wars.

(4) They have sharpened their tongue like a serpent; Vipers' venom is under their lips. Selah

(5) Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; Preserve me from the violent man; Who have purposed to make my steps slip.

(6) The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; They have spread a net by the wayside; They have set gins for me. Selah

(7) I have said unto the LORD: 'Thou art my God'; Give ear, O LORD, unto the voice of my supplications.

(8) O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, Who hast screened my head in the day of battle,

(9) Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked; Further not his evil device, so that they exalt themselves. Selah

(10) As for the head of those that compass me about, Let the mischief of their own lips cover them.

(11) Let burning coals fall upon them; Let them be cast into the fire, Into deep pits, that they rise not up again.

(12) A slanderer shall not be established in the earth; The violent and evil man shall be hunted with thrust upon thrust.

(13) I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the poor, And the right of the needy.

(14) Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto Thy name; The upright shall dwell in Thy presence.

(4) Incline not my heart to any evil thing, To be occupied in deeds of wickedness With men that work iniquity; And let me not eat of their dainties.

(5) Let the righteous smite me in kindness, and correct me; Oil so choice let not my head refuse; For still is my prayer because of their wickedness.

(6) Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock; And they shall hear my words, that they are sweet.

(7) As when one cleaveth and breaketh up the earth, Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth.

(8) For mine eyes are unto Thee, O GOD the Lord; In Thee have I taken refuge, O pour not out my soul.

(9) Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, And from the gins of the workers of iniquity.

(4) When my spirit fainteth within me— Thou knowest my path— In the way wherein I walk Have they hidden a snare for me.

(5) Look on my right hand, and see, For there is no man that knoweth me; I have no way to flee; No man careth for my soul.

(6) I have cried unto Thee, O LORD; I have said: 'Thou art my refuge, My portion in the land of the living.'

(7) Attend unto my cry; For I am brought very low; Deliver me from my persecutors; For they are too strong for me.

(8) Bring my soul out of prison, That I may give thanks unto Thy name; The righteous shall crown themselves because of me; For Thou wilt deal bountifully with me.

(2) And enter not into judgment with Thy servant; For in Thy sight shall no man living be justified.

(3) For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; He hath crushed my life down to the ground; He hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.

(4) And my spirit fainteth within me; My heart within me is appalled.

(5) I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Thy doing; I muse on the work of Thy hands.

(6) I spread forth my hands unto Thee; My soul [thirsteth] after Thee, as a weary land. Selah

(7) Answer me speedily, O LORD, My spirit faileth; Hide not Thy face from me; Lest I become like them that go down into the pit.

(8) Cause me to hear Thy lovingkindness in the morning, For in Thee do I trust; Cause me to know the way wherein I should walk, For unto Thee have I lifted up my soul.

(9) Deliver me from mine enemies, O LORD; With Thee have I hidden myself.

(10) Teach me to do Thy will, For Thou art my God; Let Thy good spirit Lead me in an even land.

(11) For Thy name's sake, O LORD, quicken me; In Thy righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.

(12) And in Thy mercy cut off mine enemies, And destroy all them that harass my soul; For I am Thy servant.

(3) LORD, what is man, that Thou takest knowledge of him? Or the son of man, that Thou makest account of him?

(4) Man is like unto a breath; His days are as a shadow that passeth away.

(5) O LORD, bow Thy heavens, and come down; Touch the mountains, that they may smoke.

(6) Cast forth lightning, and scatter them; Send out Thine arrows, and discomfit them.

(7) Stretch forth Thy hands from on high; Rescue me, and deliver me out of many waters, Out of the hand of strangers;

(8) Whose mouth speaketh falsehood, And their right hand is a right hand of lying.

(9) O God, I will sing a new song unto Thee, Upon a psaltery of ten strings will I sing praises unto Thee;

(10) Who givest salvation unto kings, Who rescuest David Thy servant from the hurtful sword.

(11) Rescue me, and deliver me out of the hand of strangers, Whose mouth speaketh falsehood, And their right hand is a right hand of lying.

(14) Whose oxen are well laden; With no breach, and no going forth, And no outcry in our broad places;

(15) Happy is the people that is in such a case. Yea, happy is the people whose God is the LORD.

(7) Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving, Sing praises upon the harp unto our God;

(8) Who covereth the heaven with clouds, Who prepareth rain for the earth, Who maketh the mountains to spring with grass.

(9) He giveth to the beast his food, And to the young ravens which cry.

(10) He delighteth not in the strength of the horse; He taketh no pleasure in the legs of a man.

(11) The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear Him, In those that wait for His mercy.

(12) Glorify the LORD, O Jerusalem; Praise thy God, O Zion.

(13) For He hath made strong the bars of thy gates; He hath blessed thy children within thee.

(14) He maketh thy borders peace; He giveth thee in plenty the fat of wheat.

(15) He sendeth out His commandment upon earth; His word runneth very swiftly.

(16) He giveth snow like wool; He scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes.

(17) He casteth forth His ice like crumbs; Who can stand before His cold?

(18) He sendeth forth His word, and melteth them; He causeth His wind to blow, and the waters flow.

(19) He declareth His word unto Jacob, His statutes and His ordinances unto Israel.

(20) He hath not dealt so with any nation; And as for His ordinances, they have not known them. Hallelujah.

(14) And He hath lifted up a horn for His people, A praise for all His saints, Even for the children of Israel, a people near unto Him. Hallelujah.
