O God [of] hosts, restore us and cause your face to shine that we may be saved.

Why are its walls broken down by your hands, so that all who go by may take its fruit?

It is burned with fire, it is cut down;
They perish at the rebuke of Your [angry] appearance.

May you support the man at your right hand; the son of man whom you have raised for yourself.

O Yahweh God [of] hosts, restore us; cause your face to shine that we may be saved.

He gave it to Joseph as a witness, when he went out over the land of Egypt; then the words of a strange tongue were sounding in my ears.

When thou calledest upon me in trouble, I delivered thee, and heard thee, what time as the storm fell upon thee. I proved thee also at the waters of strife. Selah.

Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken unto me;

I am the Lord your God, who took you up from the land of Egypt: let your mouth be open wide, so that I may give you food.

But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me.

Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways!

I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their adversaries.

Those who hate the Lord would pretend obedience to Him and cringe before Him,
And their time of punishment would be forever.

I said, “You are gods;
Indeed, all of you are sons of the Most High.

They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.

O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.

Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.

May they be humiliated and continually terrified! May they die in shame!

That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.

My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.

Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O LORD of hosts, my King, and my God.

O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah.

For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.

Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?

Let me listen to what God, the LORD, says; for the LORD will promise peace to his people, to his holy ones; may they not return to foolishness.

Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.

Righteousness, before him, shall march long, - That he may make, into a way, the steps of its feet.

{A Prayer of David.} Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.

Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.

Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily.

Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

For, thou, O My Lord, art good and forgiving, And abundant in lovingkindness, to all who call upon thee.

Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.

In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.

There is none like unto thee, among the gods, O My Lord, And nothing like thy works.

All nations whom thou hast made, Shall come in and bow down before thee, O My Lord, That they may glorify thy Name.

Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.

I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.

For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.

O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul; and have not set thee before them.

But, thou, O My Lord, art, A God of compassion and favour, Slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness a faithfulness.

O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.

Shew me a token for good; that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast holpen me, and comforted me.

I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man was born there.

As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.

{A Song or Psalm for the sons of Korah, to the chief Musician upon Mahalath Leannoth, Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite.} O LORD God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee:

Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry;

For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the grave.

They treat me like those who descend into the grave. I am like a helpless man,

My soul is among the dead, like those in the underworld, to whom you give no more thought; for they are cut off from your care.

Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps.

Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah.

Thou hast put away mine acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.

Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee.

Dost thou show wonders among the dead? Can the Physicians raise them up again, that they may praise thee? Selah.

May thy loving-kindness be showed in the grave? Or thy faithfulness in destruction?

May there be knowledge of your wonders in the dark? or of your righteousness where memory is dead?

But unto thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee.

LORD, why castest thou off my soul? why hidest thou thy face from me?

I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.

Thy fierce wrath goeth over me; thy terrors have cut me off.

They came round about me daily like water; they compassed me about together.

Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, and mine acquaintance into darkness.

{Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite.} I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.

For you have said, Mercy will be made strong for ever; my faith will be unchanging in the heavens.

I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant,

For who is he among the clouds, that may be compared unto the LORD? Yea what is he among the gods, that shall be like unto the LORD?

I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:

With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen him.

I will have those who are against him broken before his face, and his haters will be crushed under my blows.

But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted.

He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.

Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.

My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.

If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;

If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;

Then I will send punishment on them for their sin; my rod will be the reward of their evil-doing.

Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.

My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.

Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.

His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.

Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in vain?

What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? May a man deliver his own soul from the hand of hell? Selah.

Where are thy former lovingkindnesses, O My Lord? Thou didst swear unto David, in thy faithfulness!

Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;

May the Lord be praised forever.
Amen and amen.

So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.

Return, O LORD, how long? and may you have compassion concerning your servants.

O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

May your awesome deeds be revealed to your servants, as well as your splendor to their children.

May your favor be on us, Lord our God; make our endeavors successful; yes, make our endeavors secure! A Davidic Psalm

I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

He will cover you with His pinions,
And under His wings you may seek refuge;
His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark.

A thousand may fall at your side
And ten thousand at your right hand,
But danger will not come near you.

Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone.

Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
