Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish in the way, though his anger burn but a little. Blessed are all who have their trust in him.

Many say of my soul, There is no salvation for him in God. Selah.

But know that Jehovah hath set apart the pious man for himself: Jehovah will hear when I call unto him.

For thou, Jehovah, wilt bless the righteous man; with favour wilt thou surround him as with a shield.

If I have rewarded evil to him that was at peace with me; (indeed I have freed him that without cause oppressed me;)

Let the enemy pursue after my soul, and take it, and let him tread down my life to the earth, and lay my glory in the dust. Selah.

And he hath prepared for him instruments of death; his arrows hath he made burning.

What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and splendour.

Thou hast made him to rule over the works of thy hands; thou hast put everything under his feet:

He lieth in wait secretly, like a lion in his thicket; he lieth in wait to catch the afflicted: he doth catch the afflicted, drawing him into his net.

Jehovah trieth the righteous one; but the wicked, and him that loveth violence, his soul hateth.

Because of the oppression of the afflicted, because of the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith Jehovah, I will set him in safety, at whom they puff.

Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him! lest mine adversaries be joyful when I am moved.

Arise, Jehovah, anticipate him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, thy sword;

{To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David, the servant of Jehovah, who spoke to Jehovah the words of this song in the day that Jehovah had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies and out of the hand of Saul. And he said,} I will love thee, O Jehovah, my strength.

In my distress I called upon Jehovah, and I cried out to my God; he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, into his ears.

He made darkness his secret place, his tent round about him: darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

From the brightness before him his thick clouds passed forth: hail and coals of fire.

And I was upright with him, and kept myself from mine iniquity.

As for God, his way is perfect; the word of Jehovah is tried: he is a shield to all that trust in him.

Now know I that Jehovah saveth his anointed; he answereth him from the heavens of his holiness, with the saving strength of his right hand.

Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.

For thou hast met him with the blessings of goodness; thou hast set a crown of pure gold on his head.

He asked life of thee; thou gavest it him, length of days for ever and ever.

His glory is great through thy salvation; majesty and splendour hast thou laid upon him.

For thou hast made him to be blessings for ever; thou hast filled him with joy by thy countenance.

Commit it to Jehovah let him rescue him; let him deliver him, because he delighteth in him!

Ye that fear Jehovah, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and revere him, all ye the seed of Israel.

For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him: but when he cried unto him, he heard.

My praise is from thee, in the great congregation; I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

The meek shall eat and be satisfied; they shall praise Jehovah that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.

All the fat ones of the earth shall eat and worship; all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him, and he that cannot keep alive his own soul.

A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.

This is the generation of them that seek unto him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.

What man is he that feareth Jehovah? him will he instruct in the way that he should choose.

The secret of Jehovah is with them that fear him, that he may make known his covenant to them.

One thing have I asked of Jehovah, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of Jehovah all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of Jehovah, and to inquire of him in his temple.

Jehovah is my strength and my shield; my heart confided in him, and I was helped: therefore my heart exulteth, and with my song will I praise him.

For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee at a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they will not reach him.

Many sorrows hath the wicked; but he that confideth in Jehovah, loving-kindness shall encompass him.

Give thanks unto Jehovah with the harp; sing psalms unto him with the ten-stringed lute.

Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud sound.

Let all the earth fear Jehovah; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.

Behold, the eye of Jehovah is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his loving-kindness,

For in him shall our heart rejoice, because we have confided in his holy name.

{A Psalm of David; when he changed his behaviour before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed.} I will bless Jehovah at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

They looked unto him, and were enlightened, and their faces were not confounded.

This afflicted one called, and Jehovah heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

The angel of Jehovah encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.

Taste and see that Jehovah is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him!

Fear Jehovah, ye his saints; for there is no want to them that fear him.

Many are the adversities of the righteous, but Jehovah delivereth him out of them all:

Jehovah redeemeth the soul of his servants; and none of them that trust in him shall bear guilt.

Let destruction come upon him unawares, and let his net which he hath hidden catch himself: for destruction let him fall therein.

All my bones shall say, Jehovah, who is like unto thee, who deliverest the afflicted from one stronger than he, yea, the afflicted and the needy from him that spoileth him!

Let them not say in their heart, Aha! so would we have it. Let them not say, We have swallowed him up.

Commit thy way unto Jehovah, and rely upon him: he will bring it to pass;

Rest in Jehovah, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him that prospereth in his way, because of the man that bringeth mischievous devices to pass.

The wicked plotteth against the righteous, and gnasheth his teeth against him.

The Lord laugheth at him; for he seeth that his day is coming.

for those blessed of him shall possess the land, and they that are cursed of him shall be cut off.

The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him:

Jehovah will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.

but he passed away, and behold, he was not; and I sought him, but he was not found.

And Jehovah will help them and deliver them: he will deliver them from the wicked, and save them; for they trust in him.

{To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.} Blessed is he that understandeth the poor: Jehovah will deliver him in the day of evil.

Jehovah will preserve him, and keep him alive; he shall be made happy in the land; and thou wilt not deliver him to the will of his enemies.

Jehovah will sustain him upon the bed of languishing: thou turnest all his bed in his sickness.

A thing of Belial cleaveth fast unto him; and now that he is laid down, he will rise up no more.

Why art thou cast down, my soul, and art disquieted in me? hope in God; for I shall yet praise him, for the health of his countenance.

Why art thou cast down, my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God; for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.

Why art thou cast down, my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God; for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.

Because of the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and the avenger.

And the king will desire thy beauty; for he is thy Lord, and worship thou him.

None can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him,

For when he dieth, he shall carry nothing away; his glory shall not descend after him.

Our God will come, and will not keep silence: fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.

When thou sawest a thief, thou didst take pleasure in him, and thy portion was with adulterers;

Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me; and to him that ordereth his way will I shew the salvation of God.

{To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David; when Nathan the prophet came to him, after he had gone in to Bath-sheba.} Be gracious unto me, O God, according to thy loving-kindness; according to the abundance of thy tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.

{To the chief Musician: an instruction. Of David; when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, David came to the house of Ahimelech.} Why boastest thou thyself in evil, thou mighty man? The loving-kindness of God abideth continually.

The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him, saying,

There were they in great fear, where no fear was; for God scattereth the bones of him that encampeth against thee. Thou hast put them to shame, for God hath despised them.

For it is not an enemy that hath reproached me then could I have borne it; neither is it he that hateth me that hath magnified himself against me then would I have hidden myself from him;

He hath put forth his hands against such as are at peace with him; he hath profaned his covenant.

{To the chief Musician. On Jonathelem-rechokim. Of David. Michtam; when the Philistines took him in Gath.} Be gracious unto me, O God; for man would swallow me up: all the day long fighting he oppresseth me.

He will send from the heavens and save me; he hath covered with reproach him that would swallow me up. Selah. God hath sent forth his loving-kindness and his truth.

{To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam; when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him.} Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God; secure me on high from them that rise up against me.

He shall abide before God for ever: bestow loving-kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

{To the chief Musician. On Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.} Upon God alone doth my soul rest peacefully; from him is my salvation.

How long will ye assail a man; will ye seek, all of you, to break him down as a bowing wall or a tottering fence?

They only consult to thrust him down from his excellency; they delight in lies; they bless with their mouth, but in their inward part they curse. Selah.

Upon God alone, O my soul, rest peacefully; for my expectation is from him.

Confide in him at all times, ye people; pour out your heart before him: God is our refuge. Selah.

But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: for the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.

That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

The righteous shall rejoice in Jehovah, and trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.

He turned the sea into dry land; they went through the river on foot: there did we rejoice in him.

I called unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
