Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, for his wrath will soon be kindled. Blessed are all those who take refuge in him.

Many there are who say of my soul, "There is no help for him in God." Selah.

But know that the LORD has set apart for himself him who is godly: The LORD will hear when I call to him.

For you will bless the righteous. LORD, you will surround him with favor as with a shield.

if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me (yes, if I have delivered him who without cause was my adversary),

let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it; yes, let him tread my life down to the earth, and lay my glory in the dust. Selah.

what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him?

For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honor.

You make him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet:

He lurks in secret as a lion in his ambush. He lies in wait to catch the helpless. He catches the helpless, when he draws him in his net.

The LORD examines the righteous, but the wicked and him who loves violence his soul hates.

"Because of the oppression of the weak and because of the groaning of the needy, I will now arise," says the LORD; "I will set him in safety from those who malign him."

Lest my enemy say, "I have prevailed against him;" Lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall.

Arise, LORD, confront him. Cast him down. Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword;

In my distress I called on the LORD, and cried to my God. He heard my voice out of his temple. My cry before him came into his ears.

He made darkness his hiding place, his pavilion around him, darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

At the brightness before him his thick clouds passed, hailstones and coals of fire.

I was also blameless with him. I kept myself from my iniquity.

As for God, his way is perfect. The word of the LORD is tried. He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.

Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the saving strength of his right hand.

You have given him his heart's desire, and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah.

For you meet him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of fine gold on his head.

He asked life of you, you gave it to him, even length of days forever and ever.

His glory is great in your salvation. You lay honor and majesty on him.

For you make him most blessed forever. You make him glad with joy in your presence.

"He trusts in the LORD; let him deliver him. Let him rescue him, since he delights in him."

You who fear the LORD, praise him. All you descendants of Jacob, glorify him. Stand in awe of him, all you descendants of Israel.

For he has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted, Neither has he hidden his face from him; but when he cried to him, he heard.

Of you comes my praise in the great assembly. I will pay my vows before those who fear him.

The humble shall eat and be satisfied. They shall praise the LORD who seek after him. Let your hearts live forever.

All the rich ones of the earth shall eat and worship. All those who go down to the dust shall bow before him, even he who can't keep his soul alive.

Posterity shall serve him. Future generations shall be told about the Lord.

This is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek your face?even Jacob. Selah.

What man is he who fears the LORD? He shall instruct him in the way that he shall choose.

The friendship of the LORD is with those who fear him. He will show them his covenant.

The LORD is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank him.

Oh love the LORD, all you his holy ones. The LORD preserves the faithful, and fully recompenses him who behaves arrogantly.

For this, let everyone who is godly pray to you in a time when you may be found. Surely when the great waters overflow, they shall not reach to him.

Many sorrows come to the wicked, but loving kindness shall surround him who trusts in the LORD.

Give thanks to the LORD with the lyre. Sing praises to him with the harp of ten strings.

Sing to him a new song. Play skillfully with a shout of joy.

Let all the earth fear the LORD. Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.

Behold, the LORD's eye is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his loving kindness;

For our heart rejoices in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.

They looked to him, and were radiant. Their faces shall never be covered with shame.

This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them.

Oh taste and see that the LORD is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.

Oh fear the LORD, you his holy ones, for there is no lack with those who fear him.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all.

The LORD redeems the soul of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.

Let destruction come on him unawares. Let his net that he has hidden catch himself. Let him fall into that destruction.

All my bones shall say, "LORD, who is like you, who delivers the poor from him who is too strong for him; yes, the poor and the needy from him who robs him?"

Do not let them say in their heart, "Aha. That's the way we want it." Do not let them say, "We have swallowed him up."

Commit your way to the LORD. Trust also in him, and he will act.

Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him. Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who makes wicked plots happen.

The wicked plots against the just, and gnashes at him with his teeth.

The Lord will laugh at him, for he sees that his day is coming.

For such as are blessed by him shall inherit the land. Those who are cursed by him shall be cut off.

Though he stumble, he shall not fall, for the LORD holds him up with his hand.

The wicked watches the righteous, and seeks to kill him.

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

But he passed away, and behold, he was not. Yes, I sought him, but he could not be found.

The LORD helps them, and rescues them. He rescues them from the wicked, and saves them, Because they have taken refuge in him.

Blessed is he who considers the poor. The LORD will deliver him in the day of evil.

The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive. He shall be blessed on the earth, and he will not surrender him to the will of his enemies.

The LORD will sustain him on his sickbed, and restore him from his bed of illness.

"An evil disease," they say, "has afflicted him. Now that he lies he shall rise up no more."

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God. For I shall still praise him for the saving help of his presence.

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God. For I shall still praise him, the saving help of my countenance, and my God.

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God. For I shall still praise him: my Savior, my helper, and my God.

So the king will desire your beauty, honor him, for he is your lord.

none of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give God a ransom for him.

For when he dies he shall carry nothing away. His glory shall not descend after him.

Our God comes, and does not keep silent. A fire devours before him. It is very stormy around him.

When you saw a thief, you consented with him, and have participated with adulterers.

Whoever offers the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifies me, and prepares his way so that I will show God's salvation to him."

The righteous also will see it, and fear, and laugh at him, saying,

There they were in great fear, where no fear was, for God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you. You have put them to shame, because God has rejected them.

For it was not an enemy who insulted me, then I could have endured it. Neither was it he who hated me who raised himself up against me, then I would have hid myself from him.

He shall be enthroned in God's presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

My soul rests in God alone. My salvation is from him.

How long will you assault a man, would all of you throw him down, Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?

They fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place. They delight in lies. They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.

My soul, wait in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him.

Trust in him at all times, O people. Pour out your heart before him. God is a refuge for us. Selah.

But the king shall rejoice in God. Everyone who swears by him will praise him, for the mouth of those who speak lies shall be silenced.

to shoot innocent men from ambushes. They shoot at him suddenly and fearlessly.

The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall take refuge in him. All the upright in heart shall praise him.

He turned the sea into dry land. They went through the river on foot. There, we rejoiced in him.

He rules by his might forever. His eyes watch the nations. Do not let the rebellious rise up against him. Selah.

I cried to him with my mouth. He was extolled with my tongue.

God will bless us. All the ends of the earth shall fear him.

Let God arise. Let his enemies be scattered. Let them who hate him also flee before him.

Sing to God. Sing praises to his name. Extol him who rides on the clouds: to the LORD, his name. Rejoice before him.

To him who rides on the heaven of heavens, which are of old; behold, he utters his voice, a mighty voice.

For they persecute him whom you have wounded. They tell of the sorrow of those whom you have hurt.

I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.

Let heaven and earth praise him; the seas, and everything that moves therein.

saying, "God has forsaken him. Pursue and take him, for no one will rescue him."
