It is vain to trust in a horse for deliverance, even with its great strength, it cannot deliver.

There, those who do evil have fallen; They have been thrown down, and they cannot get up. Davidic

I am like the deaf, who cannot hear, and like the mute, who cannot open his mouth.

Innumerable evils have surrounded me; my iniquities have overtaken me so that I cannot see. They are more in number than the hair on my head, and my courage has forsaken me.

March around Zion; encircle her; count her towers.

But humanity cannot last, despite its conceit; it will pass away just like the animals.

You have kept count of my wanderings. Put my tears in your bottle have not you recorded them in your book?

Your way was through the sea, and your path through mighty waters, but your footprints cannot be traced.

The LORD reigns! He is clothed in majesty; the LORD is clothed, and he is girded with strength. Indeed, the world is well established, and cannot be shaken.

They say, "The LORD cannot see, and the God of Jacob will not notice."

You have set a boundary they cannot cross; they will never again cover the earth.

They have mouths, but cannot speak; they have eyes, but cannot see.

They have ears, but cannot hear; they have noses, but cannot smell.

They have hands, but cannot touch; feet, but cannot walk; they cannot even groan with their throats.

Direct my footsteps by your promise, and do not let any kind of iniquity rule over me.

Those who are trusting in the LORD are like Mount Zion, which cannot be overthrown. They remain forever.

Mouths are attributed to them, but they cannot speak; sight is attributed to them, but they cannot see;

Knowledge like this is too amazing for me. It is beyond my reach, and I cannot fathom it.

Were I to count them, they would number more than the sand. When I awake, I will be with you.

Never grant, LORD, the desires of the wicked; never condone their plans so they cannot exalt themselves. Interlude

Do not look to nobles, nor to mere human beings who cannot save.
