Thou hast an arm with might, Strong is Thy hand -- high Thy right hand.

For the beauty of their strength art Thou, And in Thy good will is our horn exalted,

For of Jehovah is our shield, And of the Holy One of Israel our king.

With whom My hand is established, My arm also doth strengthen him.

And My faithfulness and kindness are with him, And in My name is his horn exalted.

To the age I keep for him My kindness, And My covenant is stedfast with him.

And I have set his seed for ever, And his throne as the days of the heavens.

I profane not My covenant, And that which is going forth from My lips I change not.

His seed is to the age, And his throne is as the sun before Me,

As the moon it is established -- to the age, And the witness in the sky is stedfast. Selah.

Till when, O Jehovah, art Thou hidden? For ever doth Thy fury burn as fire?

Remember, I pray Thee, what is life-time? Wherefore in vain hast Thou created All the sons of men?

Who is the man that liveth, and doth not see death? He delivereth his soul from the hand of Sheol. Selah.

Blessed is Jehovah to the age. Amen, and amen!

A Prayer of Moses, the man of God. Lord, a habitation Thou -- Thou hast been, To us -- in generation and generation,

For a thousand years in Thine eyes are as yesterday, For it passeth on, yea, a watch by night.

Thou hast inundated them, they are asleep, In the morning as grass he changeth.

In the morning it flourisheth, and hath changed, At evening it is cut down, and hath withered.

For all our days pined away in Thy wrath, We consumed our years as a meditation.

Days of our years, in them are seventy years, And if, by reason of might, eighty years, Yet is their enlargement labour and vanity, For it hath been cut off hastily, and we fly away.

To number our days aright let us know, And we bring the heart to wisdom.

Satisfy us at morn with Thy kindness, And we sing and rejoice all our days.

Cause us to rejoice according to the days Wherein Thou hast afflicted us, The years we have seen evil.

And let the pleasantness of Jehovah our God be upon us, And the work of our hands establish on us, Yea, the work of our hands establish it!

He who is dwelling In the secret place of the Most High, In the shade of the Mighty lodgeth habitually,

He is saying of Jehovah, 'My refuge, and my bulwark, my God, I trust in Him,'

With His pinion He covereth thee over, And under His wings thou dost trust, A shield and buckler is His truth.

When the wicked flourish as a herb, And blossom do all workers of iniquity -- For their being destroyed for ever and ever!

And Thou exaltest as a reem my horn, I have been anointed with fresh oil.

The righteous as a palm-tree flourisheth, As a cedar in Lebanon he groweth.

To declare that upright is Jehovah my rock, And there is no perverseness in Him!

Jehovah hath reigned, Excellency He hath put on, Jehovah put on strength, He girded Himself, Also -- established is the world, unmoved.

Established is Thy throne since then, From the age Thou art.

Than the voices of many mighty waters, Breakers of a sea, mighty on high is Jehovah,

Thy testimonies have been very stedfast, To Thy house comely is holiness, O Jehovah, for length of days!

He who is instructing nations, Doth He not reprove? He who is teaching man knowledge is Jehovah.

To give rest to him from days of evil, While a pit is digged for the wicked.

Is a throne of mischief joined with Thee? A framer of perverseness by statute?

And Jehovah is for a high place to me, And my God is for a rock -- my refuge,

For a great God is Jehovah, And a great king over all gods.

In whose hand are the deep places of earth, And the strong places of hills are His.

Whose is the sea, and He made it, And His hands formed the dry land.

For He is our God, and we the people of His pasture, And the flock of His hand, To-day, if to His voice ye hearken,

Harden not your heart as in Meribah, As in the day of Massah in the wilderness,

For great is Jehovah, and praised greatly, Fearful He is over all gods.

Say among nations, 'Jehovah hath reigned, Also -- established is the world, unmoved, He judgeth the peoples in uprightness.'

The heavens joy, and the earth is joyful, The sea and its fulness roar.

The field exulteth, and all that is in it, Then sing do all trees of the forest,

Jehovah hath reigned, The earth is joyful, many isles rejoice.

Lightened have His lightnings the world, The earth hath seen, and is pained.

Ye who love Jehovah, hate evil, He is keeping the souls of His saints, From the hand of the wicked he delivereth them.

Light is sown for the righteous, And for the upright of heart -- joy.

Jehovah in Zion is great, And high He is over all the peoples.

They praise Thy name, 'Great, and fearful, holy it is.'

Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His footstool, holy is He.

Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His holy hill, For holy is Jehovah our God!

Know that Jehovah He is God, He made us, and we are His, His people -- and the flock of His pasture.

For good is Jehovah, to the age His kindness, And to generation and generation His faithfulness!

Whoso slandereth in secret his neighbour, Him I cut off, The high of eyes and proud of heart, him I endure not.

Mine eyes are on the faithful of the land, To dwell with me, Whoso is walking in a perfect way, he serveth me.

He dwelleth not in my house who is working deceit, Whoso is speaking lies Is not established before mine eyes.

A Prayer of the afflicted when he is feeble, and before Jehovah poureth out his plaint. O Jehovah, hear my prayer, yea, my cry to Thee cometh.

For consumed in smoke have been my days, And my bones as a fire-brand have burned.

Smitten as the herb, and withered, is my heart, For I have forgotten to eat my bread.

I have been like to a pelican of the wilderness, I have been as an owl of the dry places.

I have watched, and I am As a bird alone on the roof.

Because ashes as bread I have eaten, And my drink with weeping have mingled,

My days as a shadow are stretched out, And I -- as the herb I am withered.

This is written for a later generation, And the people created do praise Jah.

They -- They perish, and Thou remainest, And all of them as a garment become old, As clothing Thou changest them, And they are changed.

The sons of Thy servants do continue, And their seed before Thee is established!

Who is forgiving all thine iniquities, Who is healing all thy diseases,

Who is redeeming from destruction thy life, Who is crowning thee -- kindness and mercies,

Who is satisfying with good thy desire, Renew itself as an eagle doth thy youth.

Jehovah is doing righteousness and judgments For all the oppressed.

Merciful and gracious is Jehovah, Slow to anger, and abundant in mercy.

Not according to our sins hath He done to us, Nor according to our iniquities Hath He conferred benefits upon us.

For, as the height of the heavens is above the earth, His kindness hath been mighty over those fearing Him.

As the distance of east from west He hath put far from us our transgressions.

As a father hath mercy on sons, Jehovah hath mercy on those fearing Him.

Mortal man! as grass are his days, As a flower of the field so he flourisheth;

For a wind hath passed over it, and it is not, And its place doth not discern it any more.

And the kindness of Jehovah Is from age even unto age on those fearing Him, And His righteousness to sons' sons,

Covering himself with light as a garment, Stretching out the heavens as a curtain,

Who is laying the beam of His upper chambers in the waters, Who is making thick clouds His chariot, Who is walking on wings of wind,

He hath founded earth on its bases, It is not moved to the age and for ever.

The abyss! as with clothing Thou hast covered it, Above hills do waters stand.

Who is sending forth fountains in valleys, Between hills they go on.

Watering hills from His upper chambers, From the fruit of Thy works is the earth satisfied.

Thou settest darkness, and it is night, In it doth every beast of the forest creep.

How many have been Thy works, O Jehovah, All of them in wisdom Thou hast made, Full is the earth of thy possessions.

The honour of Jehovah is to the age, Jehovah rejoiceth in His works,

Who is looking to earth, and it trembleth, He cometh against hills, and they smoke.

Sweet is my meditation on Him, I -- I do rejoice in Jehovah.

He is Jehovah our God, In all the earth are His judgments.

To bind his chiefs at his pleasure, And his elders he maketh wise.

He hath sent darkness, and it is dark, And they have not provoked His word.

He hath made their showers hail, A flaming fire is in their land.

And bringeth them out with silver and gold, And there is not in its tribes a feeble one.

Praise ye Jah, give thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age, is His kindness.
