(1) For the leader. A psalm of David. (2) May the LORD answer you in time of trouble, the name of Jacob’s God keep you safe. (3) May He send you help from the sanctuary, and sustain you from Zion. (4) May He receive the tokens of all your meal offerings, and approve your burnt offerings.Selah. (5) May He grant you your desire, and fulfill your every plan. (6) May we shout for joy in your victory, arrayed by standards in the name of our God. May the LORD fulfill your every wish. (7) Now I know that the LORD will give victory to His anointed, will answer him from His heavenly sanctuary with the mighty victories of His right arm. (8) They [call] on chariots, they [call] on horses, but we call on the name of the LORD our God. (9) They collapse and lie fallen, but we rally and gather strength. (10) O LORD, grant victory! May the King answer us when we call.

(1) -For the leader; with instrumental music on the sheminith. A psalm of David. (2) O LORD, do not punish me in anger, do not chastise me in fury. (3) Have mercy on me, O LORD, for I languish; heal me, O LORD, for my bones shake with terror. (4) My whole being is stricken with terror, while You, LORD—O, how long! (5) O LORD, turn! Rescue me! Deliver me as befits Your faithfulness. (6) For there is no praise of You among the dead; in Sheol, who can acclaim You? (7) I am weary with groaning; every night I drench my bed, I melt my couch in tears. (8) My eyes are wasted by vexation, worn out because of all my foes. (9) Away from me, all you evildoers, for the LORD heeds the sound of my weeping. (10) The LORD heeds my plea, the LORD accepts my prayer. (11) All my enemies will be frustrated and stricken with terror; they will turn back in an instant, frustrated.

(1) For the leader; ‘almuth labben. A psalm of David. (2) I will praise You, LORD, with all my heart; I will tell all Your wonders. (3) I will rejoice and exult in You, singing a hymn to Your name, O Most High. (4) When my enemies retreat, they stumble to their doom at Your presence. (5) For You uphold my right and claim, enthroned as righteous judge. (6) You blast the nations; You destroy the wicked; You blot out their name forever. (7) The enemy is no more— ruins everlasting; You have torn down their cities; their very names are lost. (8) But the LORD abides forever; He has set up His throne for judgment; (9) it is He who judges the world with righteousness, rules the peoples with equity. (10) The LORD is a haven for the oppressed, a haven in times of trouble. (11) Those who know Your name trust You, for You do not abandon those who turn to You, O LORD. (12) Sing a hymn to the LORD, who reigns in Zion; declare His deeds among the peoples. (13) For He does not ignore the cry of the afflicted; He who requites bloodshed is mindful of them. (14) Have mercy on me, O LORD; see my affliction at the hands of my foes, You who lift me from the gates of death, (15) so that in the gates of Fair Zion I might tell all Your praise, I might exult in Your deliverance. (16) The nations sink in the pit they have made; their own foot is caught in the net they have hidden. (17) The LORD has made Himself known: He works judgment; the wicked man is snared by his own devices. Higgaion.Selah. (18) Let the wicked be in Sheol, all the nations who ignore God! (19) Not always shall the needy be ignored, nor the hope of the afflicted forever lost. (20) Rise, O LORD! Let not men have power; let the nations be judged in Your presence. (21) Strike fear into them, O LORD; let the nations know they are only men.Selah.

(1) For the leader. A psalm of David. (2) How long, O LORD; will You ignore me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? (3) How long will I have cares on my mind, grief in my heart all day? How long will my enemy have the upper hand? (4) Look at me, answer me, O LORD, my God! Restore the luster to my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death; (5) lest my enemy say, “I have overcome him,” my foes exult when I totter. (6) But I trust in Your faithfulness, my heart will exult in Your deliverance. I will sing to the LORD, for He has been good to me.

(1) A michtam of David. Protect me, O God, for I seek refuge in You. (2) I say to the LORD, “You are my Lord, my benefactor; there is none above You.” (3) As to the holy and mighty ones that are in the land, my whole desire concerning them is that (4) those who espouse another [god] may have many sorrows! I will have no part of their bloody libations; their names will not pass my lips. (5) The LORD is my allotted share and portion; You control my fate. (6) Delightful country has fallen to my lot; lovely indeed is my estate. (7) I bless the LORD who has guided me; my conscience admonishes me at night. (8) I am ever mindful of the LORD’s presence; He is at my right hand; I shall never be shaken. (9) So my heart rejoices, my whole being exults, and my body rests secure. (10) For You will not abandon me to Sheol, or let Your faithful one see the Pit. (11) You will teach me the path of life. In Your presence is perfect joy; delights are ever in Your right hand.

(1) A prayer of David. Hear, O LORD, what is just; heed my cry, give ear to my prayer, uttered without guile. (2) My vindication will come from You; Your eyes will behold what is right. (3) You have visited me at night, probed my mind, You have tested me and found nothing amiss; I determined that my mouth should not transgress. (4) As for man’s dealings, in accord with the command of Your lips, I have kept in view the fate of the lawless. (5) My feet have held to Your paths; my legs have not given way. (6) I call on You; You will answer me, God; turn Your ear to me, hear what I say. (7) Display Your faithfulness in wondrous deeds, You who deliver with Your right hand those who seek refuge from assailants. (8) Guard me like the apple of Your eye; hide me in the shadow of Your wings (9) from the wicked who despoil me, my mortal enemies who encircle me. (10) Their hearts are closed to pity; they mouth arrogance; (11) now they hem in our feet on every side; they set their eyes roaming over the land. (12) He is like a lion eager for prey, a king of beasts lying in wait. (13) Rise, O LORD! Go forth to meet him. Bring him down; rescue me from the wicked with Your sword, (14) from men, O LORD, with Your hand, from men whose share in life is fleeting. But as to Your treasured ones, fill their bellies. Their sons too shall be satisfied, and have something to leave over for their young. (15) Then I, justified, will behold Your face; awake, I am filled with the vision of You.

(1) For the leader. Of David, the servant of the LORD, who addressed the words of this song to the LORD after the LORD had saved him from the hands of all his enemies and from the clutches of Saul. (2) He said: I adore you, O LORD, my strength, (3) O LORD, my crag, my fortress, my rescuer, my God, my rock in whom I seek refuge, my shield, my mighty champion, my haven. (4) All praise! I called on the LORD and was delivered from my enemies. (5) Ropes of Death encompassed me; torrents of Belial terrified me; (6) ropes of Sheol encircled me; snares of Death confronted me. (7) In my distress I called on the LORD, cried out to my God; in His temple He heard my voice; my cry to Him reached His ears. (8) Then the earth rocked and quaked; the foundations of the mountains shook, rocked by His indignation; (9) smoke went up from His nostrils, from His mouth came devouring fire; live coals blazed forth from Him. (10) He bent the sky and came down, thick cloud beneath His feet. (11) He mounted a cherub and flew, gliding on the wings of the wind. (12) He made darkness His screen; dark thunderheads, dense clouds of the sky were His pavilion round about Him. (13) Out of the brilliance before Him, hail and fiery coals pierced His clouds. (14) Then the LORD thundered from heaven, the Most High gave forth His voice— hail and fiery coals. (15) He let fly His shafts and scattered them; He discharged lightning and routed them. (16) The ocean bed was exposed; the foundations of the world were laid bare by Your mighty roaring, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of Your nostrils. (17) He reached down from on high, He took me; He drew me out of the mighty waters; (18) He saved me from my fierce enemy, from foes too strong for me. (19) They confronted me on the day of my calamity, but the LORD was my support. (20) He brought me out to freedom; He rescued me because He was pleased with me. (21) The LORD rewarded me according to my merit; He requited the cleanness of my hands; (22) for I have kept to the ways of the LORD, and have not been guilty before my God; (23) for I am mindful of all His rules; I have not disregarded His laws. (24) I have been blameless toward Him, and have guarded myself against sinning; (25) and the LORD has requited me according to my merit, the cleanness of my hands in His sight. (26) With the loyal, You deal loyally; with the blameless man, blamelessly. (27) With the pure, You act purely, and with the perverse, You are wily. (28) It is You who deliver lowly folk, but haughty eyes You humble. (29) It is You who light my lamp; the LORD, my God, lights up my darkness. (30) With You, I can rush a barrier; with my God I can scale a wall; (31) the way of God is perfect; the word of the LORD is pure; He is a shield to all who seek refuge in Him. (32) Truly, who is a god except the LORD, who is a rock but our God?— (33) the God who girded me with might, who made my way perfect; (34) who made my legs like a deer’s, and let me stand firm on the heights; (35) who trained my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze. (36) You have given me the shield of Your protection; Your right hand has sustained me, Your care has made me great. (37) You have let me stride on freely; my feet have not slipped. (38) I pursued my enemies and overtook them; I did not turn back till I destroyed them. (39) I struck them down, and they could rise no more; they lay fallen at my feet. (40) You have girded me with strength for battle, brought my adversaries low before me, (41) made my enemies turn tail before me; I wiped out my foes. (42) They cried out, but there was none to deliver; [cried] to the LORD, but He did not answer them. (43) I ground them fine as windswept dust; I trod them flat as dirt of the streets. (44) You have rescued me from the strife of people; You have set me at the head of nations; peoples I knew not must serve me. (45) At the mere report of me they are submissive; foreign peoples cower before me; (46) foreign peoples lose courage, and come trembling out of their strongholds. (47) The LORD lives! Blessed is my rock! Exalted be God, my deliverer, (48) the God who has vindicated me and made peoples subject to me, (49) who rescued me from my enemies, who raised me clear of my adversaries, saved me from lawless men. (50) For this I sing Your praise among the nations, LORD, and hymn Your name: (51) He accords great victories to His king, keeps faith with His anointed, with David and his offspring forever.

(1) For the leader; on ayyeleth ha-shaḥar. A psalm of David. (2) My God, my God, why have You abandoned me; why so far from delivering me and from my anguished roaring? (3) My God, I cry by day—You answer not; by night, and have no respite. (4) But You are the Holy One, enthroned, the Praise of Israel. (5) In You our fathers trusted; they trusted, and You rescued them. (6) To You they cried out and they escaped; in You they trusted and were not disappointed. (7) But I am a worm, less than human; scorned by men, despised by people. (8) All who see me mock me; they curl their lips, they shake their heads. (9) “Let him commit himself to the LORD; let Him rescue him, let Him save him, for He is pleased with him.” (10) You drew me from the womb, made me secure at my mother’s breast. (11) I became Your charge at birth; from my mother’s womb You have been my God. (12) Do not be far from me, for trouble is near, and there is none to help. (13) Many bulls surround me, mighty ones of Bashan encircle me. (14) They open their mouths at me like tearing, roaring lions. (15) My life ebbs away: all my bones are disjointed; my heart is like wax, melting within me; (16) my vigor dries up like a shard; my tongue cleaves to my palate; You commit me to the dust of death. (17) Dogs surround me; a pack of evil ones closes in on me, like lions [they maul] my hands and feet. (18) I take the count of all my bones while they look on and gloat. (19) They divide my clothes among themselves, casting lots for my garments. (20) But You, O LORD, be not far off; my strength, hasten to my aid. (21) Save my life from the sword, my precious life from the clutches of a dog. (22) Deliver me from a lion’s mouth; from the horns of wild oxen rescue me. (23) Then will I proclaim Your fame to my brethren, praise You in the congregation. (24) You who fear the LORD, praise Him! All you offspring of Jacob, honor Him! Be in dread of Him, all you offspring of Israel! (25) For He did not scorn, He did not spurn the plea of the lowly; He did not hide His face from him; when he cried out to Him, He listened. (26) Because of You I offer praise in the great congregation; I pay my vows in the presence of His worshipers. (27) Let the lowly eat and be satisfied; let all who seek the LORD praise Him. Always be of good cheer! (28) Let all the ends of the earth pay heed and turn to the LORD, and the peoples of all nations prostrate themselves before You; (29) for kingship is the LORD’s and He rules the nations. (30) All those in full vigor shall eat and prostrate themselves; all those at death’s door, whose spirits flag, shall bend the knee before Him. (31) Offspring shall serve Him; the Lord’s fame shall be proclaimed to the generation (32) to come; they shall tell of His beneficence to people yet to be born, for He has acted.

(1) A psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I lack nothing. (2) He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me to water in places of repose; (3) He renews my life; He guides me in right paths as befits His name. (4) Though I walk through a valley of deepest darkness, I fear no harm, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff—they comfort me. (5) You spread a table for me in full view of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my drink is abundant. (6) Only goodness and steadfast love shall pursue me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD for many long years.

(1) A psalm of David. A song for the dedication of the House. (2) I extol You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up, and not let my enemies rejoice over me. (3) O LORD, my God, I cried out to You, and You healed me. (4) O LORD, You brought me up from Sheol, preserved me from going down into the Pit. (5) O you faithful of the LORD, sing to Him, and praise His holy name. (6) For He is angry but a moment, and when He is pleased there is life. One may lie down weeping at nightfall; but at dawn there are shouts of joy. (7) When I was untroubled, I thought, “I shall never be shaken,” (8) for You, O Lord, when You were pleased, made [me] firm as a mighty mountain. When You hid Your face, I was terrified. (9) I called to You, O LORD; to my Lord I made appeal, (10) “What is to be gained from my death, from my descent into the Pit? Can dust praise You? Can it declare Your faithfulness? (11) Hear, O LORD, and have mercy on me; O LORD, be my help!” (12) You turned my lament into dancing, you undid my sackcloth and girded me with joy, (13) that [my] whole being might sing hymns to You endlessly; O LORD my God, I will praise You forever.

(1) For the leader. A psalm of David. (2) I seek refuge in You, O LORD; may I never be disappointed; as You are righteous, rescue me. (3) Incline Your ear to me; be quick to save me; be a rock, a stronghold for me, a citadel, for my deliverance. (4) For You are my rock and my fortress; You lead me and guide me as befits Your name. (5) You free me from the net laid for me, for You are my stronghold. (6) Into Your hand I entrust my spirit; You redeem me, O LORD, faithful God. (7) I detest those who rely on empty folly, but I trust in the LORD. (8) Let me exult and rejoice in Your faithfulness when You notice my affliction, are mindful of my deep distress, (9) and do not hand me over to my enemy, but grant me relief. (10) Have mercy on me, O LORD, for I am in distress; my eyes are wasted by vexation, my substance and body too. (11) My life is spent in sorrow, my years in groaning; my strength fails because of my iniquity, my limbs waste away. (12) Because of all my foes I am the particular butt of my neighbors, a horror to my friends; those who see me on the street avoid me. (13) I am put out of mind like the dead; I am like an object given up for lost. (14) I hear the whisperings of many, intrigue on every side, as they scheme together against me, plotting to take my life. (15) But I trust in You, O LORD; I say, “You are my God!” (16) My fate is in Your hand; save me from the hand of my enemies and pursuers. (17) Show favor to Your servant; as You are faithful, deliver me. (18) O LORD, let me not be disappointed when I call You; let the wicked be disappointed; let them be silenced in Sheol; (19) let lying lips be stilled that speak haughtily against the righteous with arrogance and contempt. (20) How abundant is the good that You have in store for those who fear You, that You do in the full view of men for those who take refuge in You. (21) You grant them the protection of Your presence against scheming men; You shelter them in Your pavilion from contentious tongues. (22) Blessed is the LORD, for He has been wondrously faithful to me, a veritable bastion. (23) Alarmed, I had thought, “I am thrust out of Your sight”; yet You listened to my plea for mercy when I cried out to You. (24) So love the LORD, all you faithful; the LORD guards the loyal, and more than requites him who acts arrogantly. (25) Be strong and of good courage, all you who wait for the LORD.

(1) Of David. A maskil. Happy is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered over. (2) Happy the man whom the LORD does not hold guilty, and in whose spirit there is no deceit. (3) As long as I said nothing, my limbs wasted away from my anguished roaring all day long. (4) For night and day Your hand lay heavy on me; my vigor waned as in the summer drought.Selah. (5) Then I acknowledged my sin to You; I did not cover up my guilt; I resolved, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD,” and You forgave the guilt of my sin.Selah. (6) Therefore let every faithful man pray to You upon discovering [his sin], that the rushing mighty waters not overtake him. (7) You are my shelter; You preserve me from distress; You surround me with the joyous shouts of deliverance. Selah. (8) Let me enlighten you and show you which way to go; let me offer counsel; my eye is on you. (9) Be not like a senseless horse or mule whose movement must be curbed by bit and bridle; far be it from you! (10) Many are the torments of the wicked, but he who trusts in the LORD shall be surrounded with favor. (11) Rejoice in the LORD and exult, O you righteous; shout for joy, all upright men!

(1) Sing forth, O you righteous, to the LORD; it is fit that the upright acclaim Him. (2) Praise the LORD with the lyre; with the ten-stringed harp sing to Him; (3) sing Him a new song; play sweetly with shouts of joy. (4) For the word of the LORD is right; His every deed is faithful. (5) He loves what is right and just; the earth is full of the LORD’s faithful care. (6) By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, by the breath of His mouth, all their host. (7) He heaps up the ocean waters like a mound, stores the deep in vaults. (8) Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the inhabitants of the world dread Him. (9) For He spoke, and it was; He commanded, and it endured. (10) The LORD frustrates the plans of nations, brings to naught the designs of peoples. (11) What the LORD plans endures forever, what He designs, for ages on end. (12) Happy the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He has chosen to be His own. (13) The LORD looks down from heaven; He sees all mankind. (14) From His dwelling-place He gazes on all the inhabitants of the earth— (15) He who fashions the hearts of them all, who discerns all their doings. (16) Kings are not delivered by a large force; warriors are not saved by great strength; (17) horses are a false hope for deliverance; for all their great power they provide no escape. (18) Truly the eye of the LORD is on those who fear Him, who wait for His faithful care (19) to save them from death, to sustain them in famine. (20) We set our hope on the LORD, He is our help and shield; (21) in Him our hearts rejoice, for in His holy name we trust. (22) May we enjoy, O LORD, Your faithful care, as we have put our hope in You.

(1) Of David. Do not be vexed by evil men; do not be incensed by wrongdoers; (2) for they soon wither like grass, like verdure fade away. (3) Trust in the LORD and do good, abide in the land and remain loyal. (4) Seek the favor of the LORD, and He will grant you the desires of your heart. (5) Leave all to the LORD; trust in Him; He will do it. (6) He will cause your vindication to shine forth like the light, the justice of your case, like the noonday sun. (7) Be patient and wait for the LORD, do not be vexed by the prospering man who carries out his schemes. (8) Give up anger, abandon fury, do not be vexed; it can only do harm. (9) For evil men will be cut off, but those who look to the LORD— they shall inherit the land. (10) A little longer and there will be no wicked man; you will look at where he was— he will be gone. (11) But the lowly shall inherit the land, and delight in abundant well-being. (12) The wicked man schemes against the righteous, and gnashes his teeth at him. (13) The Lord laughs at him, for He knows that his day will come. (14) The wicked draw their swords, bend their bows, to bring down the lowly and needy, to slaughter upright men. (15) Their swords shall pierce their own hearts, and their bows shall be broken. (16) Better the little that the righteous man has than the great abundance of the wicked. (17) For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but the LORD is the support of the righteous. (18) The LORD is concerned for the needs of the blameless; their portion lasts forever; (19) they shall not come to grief in bad times; in famine, they shall eat their fill. (20) But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be consumed, like meadow grass consumed in smoke. (21) The wicked man borrows and does not repay; the righteous is generous and keeps giving. (22) Those blessed by Him shall inherit the land, but those cursed by Him shall be cut off. (23) The steps of a man are made firm by the LORD, when He delights in his way. (24) Though he stumbles, he does not fall down, for the LORD gives him support. (25) I have been young and am now old, but I have never seen a righteous man abandoned, or his children seeking bread. (26) He is always generous, and lends, and his children are held blessed. (27) Shun evil and do good, and you shall abide forever. (28) For the LORD loves what is right, He does not abandon His faithful ones. They are preserved forever, while the children of the wicked will be cut off. (29) The righteous shall inherit the land, and abide forever in it. (30) The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks what is right. (31) The teaching of his God is in his heart; his feet do not slip. (32) The wicked watches for the righteous, seeking to put him to death; (33) the LORD will not abandon him to his power; He will not let him be condemned in judgment. (34) Look to the LORD and keep to His way, and He will raise you high that you may inherit the land; when the wicked are cut off, you shall see it. (35) I saw a wicked man, powerful, well-rooted like a robust native tree. (36) Suddenly he vanished and was gone; I sought him, but he was not to be found. (37) Mark the blameless, note the upright, for there is a future for the man of integrity. (38) But transgressors shall be utterly destroyed, the future of the wicked shall be cut off. (39) The deliverance of the righteous comes from the LORD, their stronghold in time of trouble. (40) The LORD helps them and rescues them, rescues them from the wicked and delivers them, for they seek refuge in Him.

(1) A psalm of David. Lehazkir. (2) O LORD, do not punish me in wrath; do not chastise me in fury. (3) For Your arrows have struck me; Your blows have fallen upon me. (4) There is no soundness in my flesh because of Your rage, no wholeness in my bones because of my sin. (5) For my iniquities have overwhelmed me; they are like a heavy burden, more than I can bear. (6) My wounds stink and fester because of my folly. (7) I am all bent and bowed; I walk about in gloom all day long. (8) For my sinews are full of fever; there is no soundness in my flesh. (9) I am all benumbed and crushed; I roar because of the turmoil in my mind. (10) O Lord, You are aware of all my entreaties; my groaning is not hidden from You. (11) My mind reels; my strength fails me; my eyes too have lost their luster. (12) My friends and companions stand back from my affliction; my kinsmen stand far off. (13) Those who seek my life lay traps; those who wish me harm speak malice; they utter deceit all the time. (14) But I am like a deaf man, unhearing, like a dumb man who cannot speak up; (15) I am like one who does not hear, who has no retort on his lips. (16) But I wait for You, O LORD; You will answer, O Lord, my God. (17) For I fear they will rejoice over me; when my foot gives way they will vaunt themselves against me. (18) For I am on the verge of collapse; my pain is always with me. (19) I acknowledge my iniquity; I am fearful over my sin; (20) for my mortal enemies are numerous; my treacherous foes are many. (21) Those who repay evil for good harass me for pursuing good. (22) Do not abandon me, O LORD; my God, be not far from me; (23) hasten to my aid, O Lord, my deliverance.

(1) For the leader; for Jeduthun. A psalm of David. (2) I resolved I would watch my step lest I offend by my speech; I would keep my mouth muzzled while the wicked man was in my presence. (3) I was dumb, silent; I was very still while my pain was intense. (4) My mind was in a rage, my thoughts were all aflame; I spoke out: (5) Tell me, O LORD, what my term is, what is the measure of my days; I would know how fleeting my life is. (6) You have made my life just handbreadths long; its span is as nothing in Your sight; no man endures any longer than a breath. Selah. (7) Man walks about as a mere shadow; mere futility is his hustle and bustle, amassing and not knowing who will gather in. (8) What, then, can I count on, O Lord? In You my hope lies. (9) Deliver me from all my transgressions; make me not the butt of the benighted. (10) I am dumb, I do not speak up, for it is Your doing. (11) Take away Your plague from me; I perish from Your blows. (12) You chastise a man in punishment for his sin, consuming like a moth what he treasures. No man is more than a breath.Selah. (13) Hear my prayer, O LORD; give ear to my cry; do not disregard my tears; for like all my forebears I am an alien, resident with You. (14) Look away from me, that I may recover, before I pass away and am gone.

(1) For the leader. A psalm of David. (2) Happy is he who is thoughtful of the wretched; in bad times may the LORD keep him from harm. (3) May the LORD guard him and preserve him; and may he be thought happy in the land. Do not subject him to the will of his enemies. (4) The LORD will sustain him on his sickbed; You shall wholly transform his bed of suffering. (5) I said, “O LORD, have mercy on me, heal me, for I have sinned against You.” (6) My enemies speak evilly of me, “When will he die and his name perish?” (7) If one comes to visit, he speaks falsely; his mind stores up evil thoughts; once outside, he speaks them. (8) All my enemies whisper together against me, imagining the worst for me. (9) “Something baneful has settled in him; he’ll not rise from his bed again.” (10) My ally in whom I trusted, even he who shares my bread, has been utterly false to me. (11) But You, O LORD, have mercy on me; let me rise again and repay them. (12) Then shall I know that You are pleased with me: when my enemy cannot shout in triumph over me. (13) You will support me because of my integrity, and let me abide in Your presence forever. (14) Blessed is the LORD, God of Israel, from eternity to eternity. Amen and Amen.

(1) For the leader. Of the Korahites. A psalm. (2) Hear this, all you peoples; give ear, all inhabitants of the world, (3) men of all estates, rich and poor alike. (4) My mouth utters wisdom, my speech is full of insight. (5) I will turn my attention to a theme, set forth my lesson to the music of a lyre. (6) In time of trouble, why should I fear the encompassing evil of those who would supplant me— (7) men who trust in their riches, who glory in their great wealth? (8) Ah, it cannot redeem a man, or pay his ransom to God; (9) the price of life is too high; and so one ceases to be, forever. (10) Shall he live eternally, and never see the grave? (11) For one sees that the wise die, that the foolish and ignorant both perish, leaving their wealth to others. (12) Their grave is their eternal home, the dwelling-place for all generations of those once famous on earth. (13) Man does not abide in honor; he is like the beasts that perish. (14) Such is the fate of those who are self-confident, the end of those pleased with their own talk. Selah. (15) Sheeplike they head for Sheol, with Death as their shepherd. The upright shall rule over them at daybreak, and their form shall waste away in Sheol till its nobility be gone. (16) But God will redeem my life from the clutches of Sheol, for He will take me.Selah. (17) Do not be afraid when a man becomes rich, when his household goods increase; (18) for when he dies he can take none of it along; his goods cannot follow him down. (19) Though he congratulates himself in his lifetime —“They must admit that you did well by yourself”— (20) yet he must join the company of his ancestors, who will never see daylight again. (21) Man does not understand honor; he is like the beasts that perish.

(1) For the leader; with instrumental music. A maskil of David. (2) Give ear, O God, to my prayer; do not ignore my plea; (3) pay heed to me and answer me. I am tossed about, complaining and moaning (4) at the clamor of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked; for they bring evil upon me and furiously harass me. (5) My heart is convulsed within me; terrors of death assail me. (6) Fear and trembling invade me; I am clothed with horror. (7) I said, “O that I had the wings of a dove! I would fly away and find rest; (8) surely, I would flee far off; I would lodge in the wilderness;selah (9) I would soon find me a refuge from the sweeping wind, from the tempest.” (10) O Lord, confound their speech, confuse it! For I see lawlessness and strife in the city; (11) day and night they make their rounds on its walls; evil and mischief are inside it. (12) Malice is within it; fraud and deceit never leave its square. (13) It is not an enemy who reviles me —I could bear that; it is not my foe who vaunts himself against me —I could hide from him; (14) but it is you, my equal, my companion, my friend; (15) sweet was our fellowship; we walked together in God’s house. (16) Let Him incite death against them; may they go down alive into Sheol! For where they dwell, there evil is. (17) As for me, I call to God; the LORD will deliver me. (18) Evening, morning, and noon, I complain and moan, and He hears my voice. (19) He redeems me unharmed from the battle against me; it is as though many are on my side. (20) God who has reigned from the first, who will have no successor, hears and humbles those who have no fear of God.Selah. (21) He harmed his ally, he broke his pact; (22) his talk was smoother than butter, yet his mind was on war; his words were more soothing than oil, yet they were drawn swords. (23) Cast your burden on the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous man collapse. (24) For You, O God, will bring them down to the nethermost Pit— those murderous, treacherous men; they shall not live out half their days; but I trust in You.

(1) For the leader; on yonath elem reḥokim. Of David. A michtam; when the Philistines seized him in Gath. (2) Have mercy on me, O God, for men persecute me; all day long my adversary oppresses me. (3) My watchful foes persecute me all day long; many are my adversaries, O Exalted One. (4) When I am afraid, I trust in You, (5) in God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I am not afraid; what can mortals do to me? (6) All day long they cause me grief in my affairs, they plan only evil against me. (7) They plot, they lie in ambush; they watch my every move, hoping for my death. (8) Cast them out for their evil; subdue peoples in Your anger, O God. (9) You keep count of my wanderings; put my tears into Your flask, into Your record. (10) Then my enemies will retreat when I call on You; this I know, that God is for me. (11) In God, whose word I praise, in the LORD, whose word I praise, (12) in God I trust; I am not afraid; what can man do to me? (13) I must pay my vows to You, O God; I will render thank offerings to You. (14) For You have saved me from death, my foot from stumbling, that I may walk before God in the light of life.

(1) For the leader. On shoshannim. Of David. (2) Deliver me, O God, for the waters have reached my neck; (3) I am sinking into the slimy deep and find no foothold; I have come into the watery depths; the flood sweeps me away. (4) I am weary with calling; my throat is dry; my eyes fail while I wait for God. (5) More numerous than the hairs of my head are those who hate me without reason; many are those who would destroy me, my treacherous enemies. Must I restore what I have not stolen? (6) God, You know my folly; my guilty deeds are not hidden from You. (7) Let those who look to You, O Lord, God of hosts, not be disappointed on my account; let those who seek You, O God of Israel, not be shamed because of me. (8) It is for Your sake that I have been reviled, that shame covers my face; (9) I am a stranger to my brothers, an alien to my kin. (10) My zeal for Your house has been my undoing; the reproaches of those who revile You have fallen upon me. (11) When I wept and fasted, I was reviled for it. (12) I made sackcloth my garment; I became a byword among them. (13) Those who sit in the gate talk about me; I am the taunt of drunkards. (14) As for me, may my prayer come to You, O LORD, at a favorable moment; O God, in Your abundant faithfulness, answer me with Your sure deliverance. (15) Rescue me from the mire; let me not sink; let me be rescued from my enemies, and from the watery depths. (16) Let the floodwaters not sweep me away; let the deep not swallow me; let the mouth of the Pit not close over me. (17) Answer me, O LORD, according to Your great steadfastness; in accordance with Your abundant mercy turn to me; (18) do not hide Your face from Your servant, for I am in distress; answer me quickly. (19) Come near to me and redeem me; free me from my enemies. (20) You know my reproach, my shame, my disgrace; You are aware of all my foes. (21) Reproach breaks my heart, I am in despair; I hope for consolation, but there is none, for comforters, but find none. (22) They give me gall for food, vinegar to quench my thirst. (23) May their table be a trap for them, a snare for their allies. (24) May their eyes grow dim so that they cannot see; may their loins collapse continually. (25) Pour out Your wrath on them; may Your blazing anger overtake them; (26) may their encampments be desolate; may their tents stand empty. (27) For they persecute those You have struck; they talk about the pain of those You have felled. (28) Add that to their guilt; let them have no share of Your beneficence; (29) may they be erased from the book of life, and not be inscribed with the righteous. (30) But I am lowly and in pain; Your help, O God, keeps me safe. (31) I will extol God’s name with song, and exalt Him with praise. (32) That will please the LORD more than oxen, than bulls with horns and hooves. (33) The lowly will see and rejoice; you who are mindful of God, take heart! (34) For the LORD listens to the needy, and does not spurn His captives. (35) Heaven and earth shall extol Him, the seas, and all that moves in them. (36) For God will deliver Zion and rebuild the cities of Judah; they shall live there and inherit it; (37) the offspring of His servants shall possess it; those who cherish His name shall dwell there.

(1) A prayer of David. Incline Your ear, O Lord, answer me, for I am poor and needy. (2) Preserve my life, for I am steadfast; O You, my God, deliver Your servant who trusts in You. (3) Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I call to You all day long; (4) bring joy to Your servant’s life, for on You, Lord, I set my hope. (5) For You, Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call on You. (6) Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; heed my plea for mercy. (7) In my time of trouble I call You, for You will answer me. (8) There is none like You among the gods, O Lord, and there are no deeds like Yours. (9) All the nations You have made will come to bow down before You, O Lord, and they will pay honor to Your name. (10) For You are great and perform wonders; You alone are God. (11) Teach me Your way, O Lord; I will walk in Your truth; let my heart be undivided in reverence for Your name. (12) I will praise You, O Lord, my God, with all my heart and pay honor to Your name forever. (13) For Your steadfast love toward me is great; You have saved me from the depths of Sheol. (14) O God, arrogant men have risen against me; a band of ruthless men seek my life; they are not mindful of You. (15) But You, O Lord, are a God compassionate and merciful, slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. (16) Turn to me and have mercy on me; grant Your strength to Your servant and deliver the son of Your maidservant. (17) Show me a sign of Your favor, that my enemies may see and be frustrated because You, O LORD, have given me aid and comfort.

(1) A song. A psalm of the Korahites. For the leader; on maḥalath leannoth. A maskil of Heman the Ezrahite. (2) O LORD, God of my deliverance, when I cry out in the night before You, (3) let my prayer reach You; incline Your ear to my cry. (4) For I am sated with misfortune; I am at the brink of Sheol. (5) I am numbered with those who go down to the Pit; I am a helpless man (6) abandoned among the dead, like bodies lying in the grave of whom You are mindful no more, and who are cut off from Your care. (7) You have put me at the bottom of the Pit, in the darkest places, in the depths. (8) Your fury lies heavy upon me; You afflict me with all Your breakers.Selah. (9) You make my companions shun me; You make me abhorrent to them; I am shut in and do not go out. (10) My eyes pine away from affliction; I call to You, O LORD, each day; I stretch out my hands to You. (11) Do You work wonders for the dead? Do the shades rise to praise You?Selah. (12) Is Your faithful care recounted in the grave, Your constancy in the place of perdition? (13) Are Your wonders made known in the netherworld, Your beneficent deeds in the land of oblivion? (14) As for me, I cry out to You, O LORD; each morning my prayer greets You. (15) Why, O LORD, do You reject me, do You hide Your face from me? (16) From my youth I have been afflicted and near death; I suffer Your terrors wherever I turn. (17) Your fury overwhelms me; Your terrors destroy me. (18) They swirl about me like water all day long; they encircle me on every side. (19) You have put friend and neighbor far from me and my companions out of my sight.

(1) A maskil of Ethan the Ezrahite. (2) I will sing of the LORD’s steadfast love forever; to all generations I will proclaim Your faithfulness with my mouth. (3) I declare, “Your steadfast love is confirmed forever; there in the heavens You establish Your faithfulness.” (4) “I have made a covenant with My chosen one; I have sworn to My servant David: (5) I will establish your offspring forever, I will confirm your throne for all generations.” Selah. (6) Your wonders, O LORD, are praised by the heavens, Your faithfulness, too, in the assembly of holy beings. (7) For who in the skies can equal the LORD, can compare with the LORD among the divine beings, (8) a God greatly dreaded in the council of holy beings, held in awe by all around Him? (9) O LORD, God of hosts, who is mighty like You, O LORD? Your faithfulness surrounds You; (10) You rule the swelling of the sea; when its waves surge, You still them. (11) You crushed Rahab; he was like a corpse; with Your powerful arm You scattered Your enemies. (12) The heaven is Yours, the earth too; the world and all it holds— You established them. (13) North and south— You created them; Tabor and Hermon sing forth Your name. (14) Yours is an arm endowed with might; Your hand is strong; Your right hand, exalted. (15) Righteousness and justice are the base of Your throne; steadfast love and faithfulness stand before You. (16) Happy is the people who know the joyful shout; O LORD, they walk in the light of Your presence. (17) They rejoice in Your name all day long; they are exalted through Your righteousness. (18) For You are their strength in which they glory; our horn is exalted through Your favor. (19) Truly our shield is of the LORD, our king, of the Holy One of Israel. (20) Then You spoke to Your faithful ones in a vision and said, “I have conferred power upon a warrior; I have exalted one chosen out of the people. (21) I have found David, My servant; anointed him with My sacred oil. (22) My hand shall be constantly with him, and My arm shall strengthen him. (23) No enemy shall oppress him, no vile man afflict him. (24) I will crush his adversaries before him; I will strike down those who hate him. (25) My faithfulness and steadfast love shall be with him; his horn shall be exalted through My name. (26) I will set his hand upon the sea, his right hand upon the rivers. (27) He shall say to Me, ‘You are my father, my God, the rock of my deliverance.’ (28) I will appoint him first-born, highest of the kings of the earth. (29) I will maintain My steadfast love for him always; My covenant with him shall endure. (30) I will establish his line forever, his throne, as long as the heavens last. (31) If his sons forsake My Teaching and do not live by My rules; (32) if they violate My laws, and do not observe My commands, (33) I will punish their transgression with the rod, their iniquity with plagues. (34) But I will not take away My steadfast love from him; I will not betray My faithfulness. (35) I will not violate My covenant, or change what I have uttered. (36) I have sworn by My holiness, once and for all; I will not be false to David. (37) His line shall continue forever, his throne, as the sun before Me, (38) as the moon, established forever, an enduring witness in the sky.”Selah. (39) Yet You have rejected, spurned, and become enraged at Your anointed. (40) You have repudiated the covenant with Your servant; You have dragged his dignity in the dust. (41) You have breached all his defenses, shattered his strongholds. (42) All who pass by plunder him; he has become the butt of his neighbors. (43) You have exalted the right hand of his adversaries, and made all his enemies rejoice. (44) You have turned back the blade of his sword, and have not sustained him in battle. (45) You have brought his splendor to an end and have hurled his throne to the ground. (46) You have cut short the days of his youth; You have covered him with shame.Selah. (47) How long, O LORD; will You forever hide Your face, will Your fury blaze like fire? (48) O remember how short my life is; why should You have created every man in vain? (49) What man can live and not see death, can save himself from the clutches of Sheol? Selah. (50) O Lord, where is Your steadfast love of old which You swore to David in Your faithfulness? (51) Remember, O Lord, the abuse flung at Your servants that I have borne in my bosom [from] many peoples, (52) how Your enemies, O LORD, have flung abuse, abuse at Your anointed at every step. (53) Blessed is the LORD forever; Amen and Amen.

(1) A prayer of Moses, the man of God. O Lord, You have been our refuge in every generation. (2) Before the mountains came into being, before You brought forth the earth and the world, from eternity to eternity You are God. (3) You return man to dust; You decreed, “Return you mortals!” (4) For in Your sight a thousand years are like yesterday that has passed, like a watch of the night. (5) You engulf men in sleep; at daybreak they are like grass that renews itself; (6) at daybreak it flourishes anew; by dusk it withers and dries up. (7) So we are consumed by Your anger, terror-struck by Your fury. (8) You have set our iniquities before You, our hidden sins in the light of Your face. (9) All our days pass away in Your wrath; we spend our years like a sigh. (10) The span of our life is seventy years, or, given the strength, eighty years; but the best of them are trouble and sorrow. They pass by speedily, and we are in darkness. (11) Who can know Your furious anger? Your wrath matches the fear of You. (12) Teach us to count our days rightly, that we may obtain a wise heart. (13) Turn, O LORD! How long? Show mercy to Your servants. (14) Satisfy us at daybreak with Your steadfast love that we may sing for joy all our days. (15) Give us joy for as long as You have afflicted us, for the years we have suffered misfortune. (16) Let Your deeds be seen by Your servants, Your glory by their children. (17) May the favor of the Lord, our God, be upon us; let the work of our hands prosper, O prosper the work of our hands!

(1) O you who dwell in the shelter of the Most High and abide in the protection of Shaddai— (2) I say of the LORD, my refuge and stronghold, my God in whom I trust, (3) that He will save you from the fowler’s trap, from the destructive plague. (4) He will cover you with His pinions; you will find refuge under His wings; His fidelity is an encircling shield. (5) You need not fear the terror by night, or the arrow that flies by day, (6) the plague that stalks in the darkness, or the scourge that ravages at noon. (7) A thousand may fall at your left side, ten thousand at your right, but it shall not reach you. (8) You will see it with your eyes, you will witness the punishment of the wicked. (9) Because you took the LORD—my refuge, the Most High—as your haven, (10) no harm will befall you, no disease touch your tent. (11) For He will order His angels to guard you wherever you go. (12) They will carry you in their hands lest you hurt your foot on a stone. (13) You will tread on cubs and vipers; you will trample lions and asps. (14) “Because he is devoted to Me I will deliver him; I will keep him safe, for he knows My name. (15) When he calls on Me, I will answer him; I will be with him in distress; I will rescue him and make him honored; (16) I will let him live to a ripe old age, and show him My salvation.”

(1) A prayer of the lowly man when he is faint and pours forth his plea before the LORD. (2) O LORD, hear my prayer; let my cry come before You. (3) Do not hide Your face from me in my time of trouble; turn Your ear to me; when I cry, answer me speedily. (4) For my days have vanished like smoke and my bones are charred like a hearth. (5) My body is stricken and withered like grass; too wasted to eat my food; (6) on account of my vehement groaning my bones show through my skin. (7) I am like a great owl in the wilderness, an owl among the ruins. (8) I lie awake; I am like a lone bird upon a roof. (9) All day long my enemies revile me; my deriders use my name to curse. (10) For I have eaten ashes like bread and mixed my drink with tears, (11) because of Your wrath and Your fury; for You have cast me far away. (12) My days are like a lengthening shadow; I wither like grass. (13) But You, O LORD, are enthroned forever; Your fame endures throughout the ages. (14) You will surely arise and take pity on Zion, for it is time to be gracious to her; the appointed time has come. (15) Your servants take delight in its stones, and cherish its dust. (16) The nations will fear the name of the LORD, all the kings of the earth, Your glory. (17) For the LORD has built Zion; He has appeared in all His glory. (18) He has turned to the prayer of the destitute and has not spurned their prayer. (19) May this be written down for a coming generation, that people yet to be created may praise the LORD. (20) For He looks down from His holy height; the LORD beholds the earth from heaven (21) to hear the groans of the prisoner, to release those condemned to death; (22) that the fame of the LORD may be recounted in Zion, His praises in Jerusalem, (23) when the nations gather together, the kingdoms, to serve the LORD. (24) He drained my strength in mid-course, He shortened my days. (25) I say, “O my God, do not take me away in the midst of my days, You whose years go on for generations on end. (26) Of old You established the earth; the heavens are the work of Your hands. (27) They shall perish, but You shall endure; they shall all wear out like a garment; You change them like clothing and they pass away. (28) But You are the same, and Your years never end. (29) May the children of Your servants dwell securely and their offspring endure in Your presence.”

(1) Of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul, all my being, His holy name. (2) Bless the LORD, O my soul and do not forget all His bounties. (3) He forgives all your sins, heals all your diseases. (4) He redeems your life from the Pit, surrounds you with steadfast love and mercy. (5) He satisfies you with good things in the prime of life, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. (6) The LORD executes righteous acts and judgments for all who are wronged. (7) He made known His ways to Moses, His deeds to the children of Israel. (8) The LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love. (9) He will not contend forever, or nurse His anger for all time. (10) He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor has He requited us according to our iniquities. (11) For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is His steadfast love toward those who fear Him. (12) As east is far from west, so far has He removed our sins from us. (13) As a father has compassion for his children, so the LORD has compassion for those who fear Him. (14) For He knows how we are formed; He is mindful that we are dust. (15) Man, his days are like those of grass; he blooms like a flower of the field; (16) a wind passes by and it is no more, its own place no longer knows it. (17) But the LORD’s steadfast love is for all eternity toward those who fear Him, and His beneficence is for the children’s children (18) of those who keep His covenant and remember to observe His precepts. (19) The LORD has established His throne in heaven, and His sovereign rule is over all.

(1) Bless the LORD, O my soul; O LORD, my God, You are very great; You are clothed in glory and majesty, (2) wrapped in a robe of light; You spread the heavens like a tent cloth. (3) He sets the rafters of His lofts in the waters, makes the clouds His chariot, moves on the wings of the wind. (4) He makes the winds His messengers, fiery flames His servants. (5) He established the earth on its foundations, so that it shall never totter. (6) You made the deep cover it as a garment; the waters stood above the mountains. (7) They fled at Your blast, rushed away at the sound of Your thunder, (8) —mountains rising, valleys sinking— to the place You established for them. (9) You set bounds they must not pass so that they never again cover the earth. (10) You make springs gush forth in torrents; they make their way between the hills, (11) giving drink to all the wild beasts; the wild asses slake their thirst. (12) The birds of the sky dwell beside them and sing among the foliage. (13) You water the mountains from Your lofts; the earth is sated from the fruit of Your work. (14) You make the grass grow for the cattle, and herbage for man’s labor that he may get food out of the earth— (15) wine that cheers the hearts of men oil that makes the face shine, and bread that sustains man’s life. (16) The trees of the LORD drink their fill, the cedars of Lebanon, His own planting, (17) where birds make their nests; the stork has her home in the junipers. (18) The high mountains are for wild goats; the crags are a refuge for rock-badgers. (19) He made the moon to mark the seasons; the sun knows when to set. (20) You bring on darkness and it is night, when all the beasts of the forests stir. (21) The lions roar for prey, seeking their food from God. (22) When the sun rises, they come home and couch in their dens. (23) Man then goes out to his work, to his labor until the evening. (24) How many are the things You have made, O LORD; You have made them all with wisdom; the earth is full of Your creations. (25) There is the sea, vast and wide, with its creatures beyond number, living things, small and great. (26) There go the ships, and Leviathan that You formed to sport with. (27) All of them look to You to give them their food when it is due. (28) Give it to them, they gather it up; open Your hand, they are well satisfied; (29) hide Your face, they are terrified; take away their breath, they perish and turn again into dust; (30) send back Your breath, they are created, and You renew the face of the earth. (31) May the glory of the LORD endure forever; may the LORD rejoice in His works! (32) He looks at the earth and it trembles; He touches the mountains and they smoke. (33) I will sing to the LORD as long as I live; all my life I will chant hymns to my God. (34) May my prayer be pleasing to Him; I will rejoice in the LORD. (35) May sinners disappear from the earth, and the wicked be no more. Bless the LORD, O my soul. Hallelujah.

(1) “Praise the LORD, for He is good; His steadfast love is eternal!” (2) Thus let the redeemed of the LORD say, those He redeemed from adversity, (3) whom He gathered in from the lands, from east and west, from the north and from the sea. (4) Some lost their way in the wilderness, in the wasteland; they found no settled place. (5) Hungry and thirsty, their spirit failed. (6) In their adversity they cried to the LORD, and He rescued them from their troubles. (7) He showed them a direct way to reach a settled place. (8) Let them praise the LORD for His steadfast love, His wondrous deeds for mankind; (9) for He has satisfied the thirsty, filled the hungry with all good things. (10) Some lived in deepest darkness, bound in cruel irons, (11) because they defied the word of God, spurned the counsel of the Most High. (12) He humbled their hearts through suffering; they stumbled with no one to help. (13) In their adversity they cried to the LORD, and He rescued them from their troubles. (14) He brought them out of deepest darkness, broke their bonds asunder. (15) Let them praise the LORD for His steadfast love, His wondrous deeds for mankind, (16) For He shattered gates of bronze, He broke their iron bars. (17) There were fools who suffered for their sinful way, and for their iniquities. (18) All food was loathsome to them; they reached the gates of death. (19) In their adversity they cried to the LORD and He saved them from their troubles. (20) He gave an order and healed them; He delivered them from the pits. (21) Let them praise the LORD for His steadfast love, His wondrous deeds for mankind. (22) Let them offer thanksgiving sacrifices, and tell His deeds in joyful song. (23) Others go down to the sea in ships, ply their trade in the mighty waters; (24) they have seen the works of the LORD and His wonders in the deep. (25) By His word He raised a storm wind that made the waves surge. (26) Mounting up to the heaven, plunging down to the depths, disgorging in their misery, (27) they reeled and staggered like a drunken man, all their skill to no avail. (28) In their adversity they cried to the LORD, and He saved them from their troubles. (29) He reduced the storm to a whisper; the waves were stilled. (30) They rejoiced when all was quiet, and He brought them to the port they desired. (31) Let them praise the LORD for His steadfast love, His wondrous deeds for mankind. (32) Let them exalt Him in the congregation of the people, acclaim Him in the assembly of the elders. (33) He turns the rivers into a wilderness, springs of water into thirsty land, (34) fruitful land into a salt marsh, because of the wickedness of its inhabitants. (35) He turns the wilderness into pools, parched land into springs of water. (36) There He settles the hungry; they build a place to settle in. (37) They sow fields and plant vineyards that yield a fruitful harvest. (38) He blesses them and they increase greatly; and He does not let their cattle decrease, (39) after they had been few and crushed by oppression, misery, and sorrow. (40) He pours contempt on great men and makes them lose their way in trackless deserts; (41) but the needy He secures from suffering, and increases their families like flocks. (42) The upright see it and rejoice; the mouth of all wrongdoers is stopped. (43) The wise man will take note of these things; he will consider the steadfast love of the LORD.

(1) I love the LORD for He hears my voice, my pleas; (2) for He turns His ear to me whenever I call. (3) The bonds of death encompassed me; the torments of Sheol overtook me. I came upon trouble and sorrow (4) and I invoked the name of the LORD, “O LORD, save my life!” (5) The LORD is gracious and beneficent; our God is compassionate. (6) The LORD protects the simple; I was brought low and He saved me. (7) Be at rest, once again, O my soul, for the LORD has been good to you. (8) You have delivered me from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling. (9) I shall walk before the LORD in the lands of the living. (10) I trust [in the LORD]; out of great suffering I spoke (11) and said rashly, “All men are false.” (12) How can I repay the LORD for all His bounties to me? (13) I raise the cup of deliverance and invoke the name of the LORD. (14) I will pay my vows to the LORD in the presence of all His people. (15) The death of His faithful ones is grievous in the LORD’s sight. (16) O LORD, I am Your servant, Your servant, the son of Your maidservant; You have undone the cords that bound me. (17) I will sacrifice a thank offering to You and invoke the name of the LORD. (18) I will pay my vows to the LORD in the presence of all His people, (19) in the courts of the house of the LORD, in the midst of Jerusalem. Hallelujah.

(1) Praise the LORD, for He is good, His steadfast love is eternal. (2) Let Israel declare, “His steadfast love is eternal.” (3) Let the house of Aaron declare, “His steadfast love is eternal.” (4) Let those who fear the LORD declare, “His steadfast love is eternal.” (5) In distress I called on the LORD; the Lord answered me and brought me relief. (6) The LORD is on my side, I have no fear; what can man do to me? (7) With the LORD on my side as my helper, I will see the downfall of my foes. (8) It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in mortals; (9) it is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in the great. (10) All nations have beset me; by the name of the LORD I will surely cut them down. (11) They beset me, they surround me; by the name of the LORD I will surely cut them down. (12) They have beset me like bees; they shall be extinguished like burning thorns; by the name of the LORD I will surely cut them down. (13) You pressed me hard, I nearly fell; but the LORD helped me. (14) The LORD is my strength and might; He has become my deliverance. (15) The tents of the victorious resound with joyous shouts of deliverance, “The right hand of the LORD is triumphant! (16) The right hand of the LORD is exalted! The right hand of the LORD is triumphant!” (17) I shall not die but live and proclaim the works of the LORD. (18) The LORD punished me severely, but did not hand me over to death. (19) Open the gates of victory for me that I may enter them and praise the LORD. (20) This is the gateway to the LORD— the victorious shall enter through it. (21) I praise You, for You have answered me, and have become my deliverance. (22) The stone that the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone. (23) This is the LORD’s doing; it is marvelous in our sight. (24) This is the day that the LORD has made— let us exult and rejoice on it. (25) O LORD, deliver us! O LORD, let us prosper! (26) May he who enters be blessed in the name of the LORD; we bless you from the House of the LORD. (27) The LORD is God; He has given us light; bind the festal offering to the horns of the altar with cords. (28) You are my God and I will praise You; You are my God and I will extol You. (29) Praise the LORD for He is good, His steadfast love is eternal.

(1) A maskil of David, while he was in the cave. A prayer. (2) I cry aloud to the LORD; I appeal to the LORD loudly for mercy. (3) I pour out my complaint before Him; I lay my trouble before Him (4) when my spirit fails within me. You know my course; they have laid a trap in the path I walk. (5) Look at my right and see— I have no friend; there is nowhere I can flee, no one cares about me. (6) So I cry to You, O LORD; I say, “You are my refuge, all I have in the land of the living.” (7) Listen to my cry, for I have been brought very low; save me from my pursuers, for they are too strong for me. (8) Free me from prison, that I may praise Your name. The righteous shall glory in me for Your gracious dealings with me.

(1) A psalm of David. O LORD, hear my prayer; give ear to my plea, as You are faithful; answer me, as You are beneficent. (2) Do not enter into judgment with Your servant, for before You no creature is in the right. (3) My foe hounded me; he crushed me to the ground; he made me dwell in darkness like those long dead. (4) My spirit failed within me; my mind was numbed with horror. (5) Then I thought of the days of old; I rehearsed all Your deeds, recounted the work of Your hands. (6) I stretched out my hands to You, longing for You like thirsty earth.Selah. (7) Answer me quickly, O LORD; my spirit can endure no more. Do not hide Your face from me, or I shall become like those who descend into the Pit. (8) Let me learn of Your faithfulness by daybreak, for in You I trust; let me know the road I must take, for on You I have set my hope. (9) Save me from my foes, O LORD; to You I look for cover. (10) Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God. Let Your gracious spirit lead me on level ground. (11) For the sake of Your name, O LORD, preserve me; as You are beneficent, free me from distress. (12) As You are faithful, put an end to my foes; destroy all my mortal enemies, for I am Your servant.

(1) Hallelujah. Praise the LORD from the heavens; praise Him on high. (2) Praise Him, all His angels, praise Him, all His hosts. (3) Praise Him, sun and moon, praise Him, all bright stars. (4) Praise Him, highest heavens, and you waters that are above the heavens. (5) Let them praise the name of the LORD, for it was He who commanded that they be created. (6) He made them endure forever, establishing an order that shall never change. (7) Praise the LORD, O you who are on earth, all sea monsters and ocean depths, (8) fire and hail, snow and smoke, storm wind that executes His command, (9) all mountains and hills, all fruit trees and cedars, (10) all wild and tamed beasts, creeping things and winged birds, (11) all kings and peoples of the earth, all princes of the earth and its judges, (12) youths and maidens alike, old and young together. (13) Let them praise the name of the LORD, for His name, His alone, is sublime; His splendor covers heaven and earth. (14) He has exalted the horn of His people for the glory of all His faithful ones, Israel, the people close to Him. Hallelujah.
