They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou wilt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.

O Jehovah, thou wilt not reprove me in thy wrath, and thou wilt not correct me in thine anger.

For thine arrows came down upon me, and thy hand will press down upon me.

For mine iniquities passed over my head: as a heavy lifting up they will be loaded above me.

My friends and my neighbors will stand from before my stroke, and my kindred stood from far off.

And I, as deaf, shall not hear; and as dumb, he will not open his mouth.

For in You, O Lord, I hope;
You will answer, O Lord my God.

That I may not sin with my tongue;
I will muzzle my mouth
While the wicked are in my presence.”

Surely they make an uproar for nothing;
Each one builds up riches, not knowing who will receive them.

How long, LORD, will I wait expectantly? I have placed my hope in you.

Deliver me from all my transgression: thou wilt not set me a reproach of the foolish one.

I was dumb, I will not open my mouth; for thou didst

With corrections for iniquity thou didst correct man, and thou wilt melt down as a moth his beauty: surely every man is vanity. Silence.

To the overseer: of David chanting. Waiting, I waited for Jehovah, and he will incline to me, and he will hear my cry.

And he will bring me up from the pit of destruction, from the clay of mire, and he will set my feet upon a rock, preparing my goings.

He put a new song in my mouth, praise to our God! Many will watch and be in awe, and they will place their trust in the LORD.

In his illness, You will restore him to health.

My enemies speak evil of me, saying,
“When will he die and his name perish?”

Together, all hating me, will whisper against me: against one they will purpose evil to me.

“A wicked thing is poured out upon him and holds him;
And when he lies down, he will not rise up again.”

But You, Lord, be gracious to me and raise me up;
then I will repay them.

In this way I will know that you are pleased with me, and that my enemies will not shout in triumph over me.

As for me, you will maintain my just cause, and you will cause me to stand in your presence forever.

To the overseer instructing for the sons of Borah. As the stag will long for the channels of waters, thus will my soul long for thee, O God.

I thirst for God, for the living God. I say, "When will I be able to go and appear in God's presence?"

I will remember and weep! For I was once walking along with the great throng to the temple of God, shouting and giving thanks along with the crowd as we celebrated the holy festival.

Why are you depressed, O my soul? Why are you upset? Wait for God! For I will again give thanks to my God for his saving intervention.

O my God, my soul is in despair within me [the burden more than I can bear];
Therefore I will [fervently] remember You from the land of the Jordan
And the peaks of [Mount] Hermon, from Mount Mizar.

Yet the Lord will command His lovingkindness in the daytime,
And in the night His song will be with me,
A prayer to the God of my life.

I will say to God my rock, “Why have You forgotten me?
Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?”

Why are you depressed, O my soul? Why are you upset? Wait for God! For I will again give thanks to my God for his saving intervention.

Vindicate me, O God, and plead my cause, Against a nation, without lovingkindness, From the man of deceit and perversity, wilt thou deliver me?

Reveal your light and your faithfulness! They will lead me, they will escort me back to your holy hill, and to the place where you live.

Then I will go to the altar of God,
To God, my exceeding joy;
With the lyre I will praise You, O God, my God!

Why are you depressed, O my soul? Why are you upset? Wait for God! For I will again give thanks to my God for his saving intervention.

Thou didst with thy hand drive out the nations and thou wilt plant them; thou wilt pluck in pieces the people, and thou wilt send them forth.

By your power we will drive back our enemies; by your strength we will trample down our foes!

For I will not trust in my bow,
Nor will my sword save me.

In God we have boasted all the day long,
And we will praise and give thanks to Your name forever. Selah.

But nay thou hast rejected, and confounded us, And wilt not go forth with our hosts;
