When

With my voice - to Yahweh, make I outcry, With my voice - to Yahweh, make I supplication:

Who shall ascend the mountain of Yahweh? And who shall stand in his holy place?

Be

Show me favour, O God, For weak man hath panted for me, All the day, a fighter oppresseth me:

But, as for me, my prayer shall be unto thee, O Yahweh, in a time of acceptance, O God, in the abounding of thy lovingkindness, answer me with thy saving faithfulness.

Let thy lovingkindness, I beseech thee, serve to comfort me, according to thy word to thy servant.

Soul

Thus let them who know thy Name, put confidence in thee, that thou hast not forsaken the searchers for thee, O Yahweh.

But, I, in thy lovingkindness, have put my trust, My heart shall exult in thy salvation:

They who trust in Yahweh, are like Mount Zion, which shall not be shaken, Age-abidingly, shall it remain.

Who among you, revereth Yahweh, Hearkening unto the voice of his Servant, - That hath walked in dark places And hath had no gleam of light? Let him trust in the name of Yahweh, And lean upon his God.

Shadow

Let thy lovingkindness be distinguished, thou Saviour of such as seek refuge from them who lift themselves up against thy right hand.

How precious thy lovingkindness, O God, - Therefore, the sons of men, under the shadow of thy wings, seek refuge:

I would be a guest in thy tent to the ages, I would seek refuge in the concealment of thy wings. Selah.

For thou hast become a help unto me, - And, in the shadow of thy wings, will I shout for joy.

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High, Under the shadow of the Almighty, will tarry,

Yahweh recompense thy deed, - and let thy reward be full from Yahweh, the God of Israel, unto whom thou hast come to take refuge under his wings.

Jerusalem! Jerusalem! she that slayeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto her! How often, have I desired to gather together thy children, like as a hen, her own brood, under her wings, - and ye did not desire!

Until

For, yet a very little while, and displeasure shall end, Yea, mine anger, over their destruction.

Come my people, enter into thy chambers, And shut thy doors behind thee, - Hide thee as it were a little moment Till the indignation pass over.

And, except those days had been shortened, no flesh had been saved; but, for the sake of the chosen, those days shall be shortened.

Verily, verily, I say unto you - Ye, shall weep and lament, but, the world, shall rejoice: Ye, shall be grieved, but, your grief, into joy, shall be turned.

An example, take ye, brethren, of distress and patience, - the prophets who have spoken in the name of the Lord.

And I at once said to him - My lord! thou, knowest! And he said unto me - These, are they who come out of the great tribulation, and they washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb;

And he will wipe away every tear out of their eyes, - and, death, shall be no more, and grief and outcry and pain shall be no more: the first things, have passed away.
