The dead do not praise Yah, nor any descending into silence.

Yahweh [is] for me; I do not fear. What can [mere] humans do to me?

I will not die but live, and tell of the works of Yah.

Yah has disciplined me severely, but he did not consign me to death.

Then I would not be ashamed when I look to all your commands.

I will heed your statutes; do not utterly forsake me.

With my whole heart I have sought you; do not let me stray from your commands.

In my heart I have hidden your word, so that I may not sin against you.

I will take delight in your statutes; I will not forget your word.

I [am] a sojourner on the earth; do not hide your commands from me.

I cling to your testimonies; O Yahweh, do not let me be put to shame.

Incline my heart to your testimonies, and not to [dishonest] gain.

And do not snatch [the] word of truth utterly from my mouth, for I hope in your ordinances.

And I will speak of your testimonies before kings, and will not be ashamed.

[The] arrogant utterly deride me; I have not turned aside from your law.

I remember your name in the night, O Yahweh, and I heed your law.

I hurry and do not delay to heed your commands.

[The] cords of [the] wicked surround me, [but] I do not forget your law.

[In the] middle of [the] night I rise to give you thanks, because of your righteous ordinances.

May my heart be blameless in your statutes, so that I may not be ashamed.

For I have become like a wineskin in [the] smoke, [yet] I have not forgotten your statutes.

[The] arrogant have dug pits for me, which [is] not according to your law.

They have almost destroyed me on the earth, but I have not forsaken your precepts.

I will not ever forget your precepts, for by them you revive me.

I have not turned aside from your ordinances, for you have taught me.

My life [is] {in danger} continually, yet I do not forget your law.

[The] wicked have laid a snare for me, yet I do not wander from your precepts.

I [am] small and despised, [yet] I do not forget your precepts.

My eyes anticipate [the] night watches, that [I may] meditate on your word.

See my misery and rescue me, for I do not forget your law.

Salvation [is] far from [the] wicked, for they do not seek your statutes.

My persecutors and enemies [are] many, [yet] I do not turn aside from your testimonies.

I see [the] treacherous and I feel disgust, because they do not heed your word.

Great peace [is] for those who love your law, and they do not have a cause for stumbling.

I have wandered like a lost sheep; seek your servant, because I do not forget your commands.

He will not allow your foot to be moved; he who protects you will not slumber.

Look, he will not slumber and he will not sleep-- he who protects Israel.

The sun will not strike you by day, nor [the] moon by night.

"If [it had] not [been] Yahweh who was on our side," do let Israel say,

"If [it had] not [been] Yahweh who was on our side, when men rose up against us,

Blessed [be] Yahweh, who has not made us prey for their teeth.

"Too often they have attacked me from my youth, yet they have not prevailed against me.

so that passersby do not say, "The blessing of Yahweh [be] upon you. We bless you in the name of Yahweh."

"I will not enter into the tent of my house, I will not go up to the couch of my bed,

For the sake of your servant David, do not turn away the face of your anointed one.

Yahweh swore [in] truth to David; he will not turn back from it. "One from the fruit of your {body} I will set on your throne.

Look, bless Yahweh, all [you] the servants of Yahweh, who {serve} in the house of Yahweh by night.

they have ears, but cannot hear; there is not even breath in their mouths.

The moon and stars to rule the night, for his loyal love [endures] forever.

Let my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth, if I do not remember you, if do not I exalt Jerusalem above my highest joy.

Yahweh accomplishes [things] for my benefit. O Yahweh, your loyal love [endures] forever; do not abandon the works of your hands.

For [there is] not a word [yet] on my tongue, [but] behold, O Yahweh, you know it completely.

And if I should say, "Surely darkness will cover me, and [the] light around me [will be as] night,"

even [the] darkness is not too dark for you, and [the] night shines as the day-- the darkness [and] the light are alike [for you].

My {frame} was not hidden from you, when I was created secretly, [and] intricately woven in [the] depths of [the] earth.

Your eyes saw my embryo, and in your book they all were written-- days fashioned [for me] when [there was] not one of them.

Do I not hate those who hate you, O Yahweh? And do I [not] loathe those who rise up against you?

[The] proud have hidden a trap for me, and cords. They have spread out a net along [the] {side} of [the] path. They have set snares for me. Selah

Do not grant, O Yahweh, [the] desires of [the] wicked. Do not allow [them] to attain their plan, lest they be exalted. Selah

Do not let a {slanderer} be established in the land; as for [the] man of violence, let evil hunt him quickly.

Do not incline my heart to any evil thing, to practice wicked deeds with men [who] do iniquity; and do not let me eat of their delicacies.

Let a righteous one strike me in kindness, and let him chasten me. [It is] oil for [my] head; let not my head refuse. For still my prayer [is] against their evil deeds.

But my eyes [are] toward you, O Yahweh, my Lord; I have taken refuge in you. Do not lay bare my soul.

Do not place trust in princes, in a son of humankind with whom there is no deliverance.

He does not delight in the strength of the horse; he takes no pleasure in the legs of the man.

He has not done so for any nation, and they do not know [his] ordinances. Praise Yah.

And he put them in place forever and ever, [by] a decree he gave that will not pass away.
