I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace to his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.

Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.

A Prayer of David. Bow down thy ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.

Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.

Be merciful to me, O Lord: for I cry to thee daily.

Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for to thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and abundant in mercy to all them that call upon thee.

In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.

For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.

Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.

I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.

For great is thy mercy towards me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.

Show me a token for good; that they who hate me may see it, and be ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast helped me, and comforted me.

A Psalm or Song for the sons of Korah. His foundation is in the holy mountains.

A Song or Psalm for the sons of Korah, to the chief Musician upon Mahalath Leannoth, Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite. O LORD God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee:

For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh to the grave.

Free among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou rememberest no more: and they are cut off from thy hand.

Thou hast put away my acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an abomination to them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.

Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, and my acquaintance into darkness.

Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite. I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.

For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness wilt thou establish in the very heavens.

Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. Selah.

For who in the heaven can be compared to the LORD? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened to the LORD?

The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world, and the fullness of it, thou hast founded them.

For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favor our horn shall be exalted.

For the LORD is our defense; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.

My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.

His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.

His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.

It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.

How long, LORD, wilt thou hide thyself? for ever? shall thy wrath burn like fire?

Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen and amen.

For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.

For we are consumed by thy anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.

For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years, as a tale that is told.

The days of our years are seventy years; and if by reason of strength they are eighty years, yet is their strength labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.

Who knoweth the power of thy anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noon-day.

For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

A Psalm or Song for the sabbath day. It is a good thing to give thanks to the LORD, and to sing praises to thy name, O Most High.

For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.

When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:

But thou, LORD, art most high for evermore.

For lo, thy enemies, O LORD, for lo, thy enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thy house, O LORD, for ever.

That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked.

For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.

Who will rise up for me against the evil-doers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?

For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.

For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To-day, if ye will hear his voice,

For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.

For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.

O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.

For he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he will judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.

A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.

For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods.

Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.

A Psalm. O sing to the LORD a new song; for he hath done marvelous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.

Before the LORD; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness will he judge the world, and the people with equity.

Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.

Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy.

Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.

For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned as an hearth.

For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping,

Because of thy indignation and thy wrath: for thou hast lifted me up, and cast me down.

But thou, O LORD, shalt endure for ever; and thy remembrance to all generations.

Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favor her, yes, the set time, is come.

For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favor the dust thereof.

So the heathen shall fear the name of the LORD: and all the kings of the earth thy glory.

This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.

For he hath looked down from the hight of his sanctuary; from heaven hath the LORD beheld the earth;

The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.

He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.

For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy towards them that fear him.

As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.

Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.

For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.

As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.

For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and its place shall know it no more.

But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness to children's children;

Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:

Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.

They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys to the place which thou hast founded for them.

He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;

Where the birds make their nests: as for the stork, the fir-trees are her house.

The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats; and the rocks for the conies.

He appointeth the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.

The glory of the LORD shall endure for ever: the LORD shall rejoice in his works.

He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.

And confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:

He suffered no man to do them wrong: yes, he reproved kings for their sakes;

Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he broke the whole staff of bread.

He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant:

The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and let him go free.

He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.

Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them.

He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night.

For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant.
