The Lord is on my side; I will have no fear: what is man able to do to me?

It is better to have faith in the Lord than to put one's hope in man.

It is better to have faith in the Lord than to put one's hope in rulers.

All nations encompassed me; but in the name of Jehovah have I destroyed them.

They encompassed me, yea, encompassed me; but in the name of Jehovah have I destroyed them.

They encompassed me like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of Jehovah have I destroyed them.

I have been hard pushed by you, so that I might have a fall: but the Lord was my helper.

I will give thanks to You, for You have heard and answered me;
And You have become my salvation [my Rescuer, my Savior].

Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD: we have blessed you out of the house of the LORD.

Yea, they have not done iniquity, In His ways they have walked.

You have ordained Your precepts,
That we should follow them with [careful] diligence.

Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all thy commandments.

I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall have learned thy righteous judgments.

With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments.

Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

With my lips have I declared all the judgments of thy mouth.

I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies, as much as in all riches.

I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.

I will have delight in your rules; I will not let your word go out of my mind.

You have rebuked the proud who are cursed, who wander from your commandments.

Remove from me reproach and contempt; for I have kept thy testimonies.

Even rulers have taken their seat, against me, have talked, Thy servant, will still meditate in thy statutes.

I have declared my ways, and thou heardest me: teach me thy statutes.

I have chosen the way of truth: thy judgments have I laid before me.

I have stuck unto thy testimonies: O LORD, put me not to shame.

I run in the path of your commandments, for you have set my heart free. HEY

Cause me to tread in the path of Thy commands, For in it I have delighted.

Remove my reproach that I have feared, For Thy judgments are good.

Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness.

Let your mercies come to me, O Lord, even your salvation, as you have said.

So shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me: for I trust in thy word.

And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in thy judgments.

And I shall walk at liberty; For I have sought thy precepts.

And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved.

My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes.

Zayin.
Remember [always] the word and promise to Your servant,
In which You have made me hope.

This is my comfort in my trouble; that your sayings have given me life.

The proud have had me greatly in derision: yet have I not declined from thy law.

I remembered thy judgments of old, O LORD; and have comforted myself.

I am burning with wrath, because of the sinners who have given up your law.

Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.

I have remembered thy name, O LORD, in the night, and have kept thy law.

This I have had, Because I have kept thy precepts.

CHETH. Thou art my portion, O LORD: I have said that I would keep thy words.

I have sought thy favour with my whole heart: be gracious unto me according to thy word.

I have thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto thy testimonies.

I have made haste, and not delayed, to keep thy commandments.

The bands of the wicked have robbed me: but I have not forgotten thy law.

I keep company with all your worshippers, and those who have your orders in their memory.

Teth.
You have dealt well with Your servant,
O Lord, according to Your promise.

Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy commandments.

Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word.

The proud have forged a lie against me: but I will keep thy precepts with my whole heart.

Insensate as fat hath been their heart, I -- in Thy law I have delighted.

It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes.

The law you have revealed is more important to me than thousands of pieces of gold and silver.

JOD. Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments.

They that fear thee will be glad when they see me; because I have hoped in thy word.

I have known, O Jehovah, That righteous are Thy judgments, And in faithfulness Thou hast afflicted me.

Let your mercy now be my comfort, as you have said to your servant.

Let your gentle mercies come to me, so that I may have life; for your law is my delight.

Let the proud be put to shame; For they have overthrown me wrongfully: But I will meditate on thy precepts.

Let those that fear thee turn unto me, and those that have known thy testimonies.

Kaph. Consumed for Thy salvation hath been my soul, For Thy word I have hoped.

Consumed have been mine eyes for Thy word, Saying, 'When doth it comfort me?'

For I have been as a bottle in smoke, Thy statutes I have not forgotten.

The proud have digged pits for me, which are not after thy law.

All Thy commands are faithfulness, With falsehood they have pursued me, Help Thou me.

Almost consumed me on earth have they, And I -- I have not forsaken Thy precepts.

Give me life in accordance with Your faithful love,
and I will obey the decree You have spoken.

Your faithfulness continues from generation to generation;
You have established the earth, and it stands [securely].

According to Thine ordinances They have stood this day, for the whole are Thy servants.

Unless thy law had been my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction.

I will never forget Your precepts,
For by them You have revived me and given me life.

I am thine, save me; for I have sought thy precepts.

The wicked have waited for me to destroy me: but I will consider thy testimonies.

I have seen an end of all perfection: but thy commandment is exceeding broad.

Mem. O how I have loved Thy law! All the day it is my meditation.

You through your commandments have made me wiser than my enemies: for they are ever with me.

I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation.

I understand more than the aged, Because I have kept thy precepts.

I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word.

I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.

How pleasing is what you have to say to me tasting better than honey.

From Thy precepts I have understanding, Therefore I have hated every false path!

I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep thy righteous judgments.

I have been afflicted very much, O Jehovah, quicken me, according to Thy word.

My soul is in my hand continually, And Thy law I have not forgotten.

The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet I erred not from thy precepts.

Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they are the rejoicing of my heart.

I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes alway, even unto the end.

SAMECH. The double-minded have I hated; but thy law do I love.

My hiding place and my shield art Thou, For Thy word I have hoped.

Be my support as you have said, and give me life; let not my hope be turned to shame.

Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto thy statutes continually.

You have overcome all those who are wandering from your rules; for all their thoughts are false.

Dross! Thou hast caused to cease All the wicked of the earth; Therefore I have loved Thy testimonies.

Trembled from Thy fear hath my flesh, And from Thy judgments I have been afraid!

AIN. I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to mine oppressors.

Mine eyes have been consumed for Thy salvation. And for the saying of Thy righteousness.
