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

From Thy rebuke they flee, From the voice of Thy thunder haste away.

Then are the hills seen aloft, and the valleys beneath - in their place which thou hast appointed for them.

Thou hast set them their bounds, which they may not pass, that they turn not again to cover the earth.

Who hast sent forth springs, through the torrent-beds, Between the mountains, they flow along;

Thou hast appointed the moon for certain seasons, the sun knoweth his going down.

O LORD, how manifold are thy works! Right wisely hast thou made them all; yea, the earth is full of thy riches.

There go the ships over, and there is that Leviathan, whom thou hast made, to take his pastime therein.

Shalt not thou do it, O God which hast cast us out? And wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?

and they shall know how that this is thy hand, and that thou, LORD, hast done it.

Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.

And why? Thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.

I said in my haste, "All men are liars."

Behold, O LORD, how that I am thy servant; I am thy servant, and the son of thy handmaid. Thou hast broken my bonds in sunder.

Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me.

I thank thee, for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation.

Thou hast given straight charge to keep thy commandments:

In my heart, have I treasured what thou hast said, to the end I may not sin against thee.

Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed, which do err from thy commandments.

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

I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou hast set my heart at liberty.

{Zayin} O think upon thy servant, as concerning thy word, wherein thou hast caused me to put my trust.

I make haste, and prolong not the time, to keep thy commandments.

{Tet} O LORD, thou hast dealt graciously with thy servant, according unto thy word.

I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are right, and that thou of very faithfulness hast caused me to be troubled.

O let thy merciful kindness be my comfort, according to the promise that thou hast made unto thy servant.

Thy truth also remaineth from one generation to another; thou hast laid the foundation of the earth, and it abideth.

I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me.

Thou, through thy commandments, hast made me wiser than mine enemies; for they are ever with me.

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

Thou hast trodden down all them that err from thy statutes: for their deceit is falsehood.

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

The testimonies that thou hast commanded are exceeding righteous and true.

As concerning thy testimonies, I have known ever since the beginning that thou hast grounded them for ever.

My lips shall speak of thy praise, when thou hast taught me thy statutes.

O daughter of Babylon, thou shalt come to misery thyself; yea, happy shall he be that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.

I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name, because of thy loving-kindness and truth; for thou hast magnified thy word, according unto thy great name.

{To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.} O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me.

Thou -- Thou hast known my sitting down, And my rising up, Thou hast attended to my thoughts from afar.

My path and my couch Thou hast fanned, And with all my ways hast been acquainted.

For there is not a word in my tongue, Lo, O Jehovah, Thou hast known it all!

Thou hast fashioned me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.

For my reins are thine, thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.

O LORD. O LORD God, thou strength of my health; thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.

{A Psalm of David} LORD, I call upon thee; haste thee unto me, and consider my voice, when I cry unto thee.

When my spirit hath been feeble in me, Then Thou hast known my path; In the way in which I walk, They have hid a snare for me.

Haste, answer me, O Jehovah, My spirit hath been consumed, Hide not Thou Thy face from me, Or I have been compared with those going down to the pit.

And in Thy kindness cuttest off mine enemies, And hast destroyed all the adversaries of my soul, For I am Thy servant!

LORD, what is man, that thou hast such respect unto him? Or the son of man, that thou so regardest him?

Thou that givest victory unto kings, and hast delivered David thy servant from the peril of the sword.
