For You, Lord,
are the Most High over all the earth;
You are exalted above all the gods.

You who are lovers of the Lord, be haters of evil; he keeps the souls of his saints; he takes them out of the hand of sinners.

There is sprung up a light for the righteous, and a joyful gladness for such as are true hearted.

Moses and Aaron among His priests, And Samuel among those proclaiming His name. They are calling unto Jehovah, And He doth answer them.

You answered them, Yahweh our God. You are a God who forgave them, although you took vengeance for their doings.

Acknowledge that Yahweh is God.
He made us, and we are His —
His people, the sheep of His pasture.

For the Lord is good;
His mercy and lovingkindness are everlasting,
His faithfulness [endures] to all generations.

Mine eyes are on the faithful of the land, To dwell with me, Whoso is walking in a perfect way, he serveth me.

I shall soon destroy all the ungodly that are in the land, that I may root out all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.

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

Mine enemies reproach me all the day; and they that are mad against me are sworn against me.

My days are like a lengthening shadow,
and I wither away like grass.

But You, Lord, are enthroned forever;
Your fame endures to all generations.

To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death;

when peoples and kingdoms are assembled
to serve the Lord.

I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are throughout all generations.

Long ago You established the earth,
and the heavens are the work of Your hands.

They -- They perish, and Thou remainest, And all of them as a garment become old, As clothing Thou changest them, And they are changed.

But You are the same,
and Your years will never end.

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

For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
so great is His faithful love
toward those who fear Him.

For He knows what we are made of,
remembering that we are dust.

As for man, his days are like grass—
he blooms like a flower of the field;

But the lovingkindness of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who [reverently] fear Him,
And His righteousness to children’s children,

to those who keep his covenant, who are careful to obey his commands.

Praise Yahweh, you angels of his, who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word, obeying the voice of his word.

My soul, praise Yahweh!
Lord my God, You are very great;
You are clothed with majesty and splendor.

You are clothed with light as with a robe; stretching out the heavens like a curtain:

But at thy rebuke they flee, at the voice of thy thunder they are afraid.

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

Bounds, hast thou set, which they are not to pass over, They are not to return to cover the earth.

[You are] the one who sends forth springs into the valleys; they flow between [the] mountains.

[You are the one who] {waters} [the] mountains from his upper chambers. The earth is full with the fruit of your labors:

The trees of the LORD are full of sap; the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted;

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

The high mountains are for the wild goats;
the cliffs are a refuge for hyraxes.

The young lions are roaring for prey, And to seek from God their food.

The sun riseth, they are gathered, And in their dens they crouch.

How countless are Your works, Lord!
In wisdom You have made them all;
the earth is full of Your creatures.

So is this great and wide sea, wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts.

All of them are waiting for you, to give them their food in its time.

When You give it to them,
they gather it;
when You open Your hand,
they are satisfied with good things.

When You hide Your face,
they are terrified;
when You take away their breath,
they die and return to the dust.

When You send Your breath,
they are created,
and You renew the face of the earth.

Consumed are sinners from the earth, And the wicked are no more. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah!

Have glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who are searching after the Lord be glad.

He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth.

How happy are those who uphold justice,
who practice righteousness at all times.

Keep me in mind, O Lord, when you are good to your people; O let your salvation come to me;

We are sinners like our fathers, we have done wrong, our acts are evil.

And they are envious of Moses in the camp, Of Aaron, Jehovah's holy one.

And they are coupled to Baal-Peor, And eat the sacrifices of the dead,

And serve their idols, And they are to them for a snare.

And they are defiled with their works, And commit whoredom in their habitual doings.

And their enemies oppress them, And they are humbled under their hand.

Many times He doth deliver them, And they rebel in their counsel, And they are brought low in their iniquity.

Blessed are you, LORD God of Israel, from eternity to eternity; Let all the people say, "Amen!" Hallelujah!

The doors of brass are broken by his arm, and the bands of iron are cut in two.

Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted.

They are disgusted by all food, and they come near to the doors of death.

The sailors go up to heaven, and down into the deep; their souls are wasted because of their trouble.

They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end.

He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.

Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven.

He makes a fertile country into a salt waste, because of the sins of those who are living there.

He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and suffereth not their cattle to decrease.

When they are diminished and are humbled
by cruel oppression and sorrow,

[The] upright see [it] and are glad, and all wickedness shuts its mouth.

For Your lovingkindness is great and higher than the heavens;
Your truth reaches to the skies.

For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.

Words of hate are round about me; they have made war against me without cause.

For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer.

His days are few, his oversight another taketh,

His sons are fatherless, and his wife a widow.

They are before Jehovah continually, And He cutteth off from earth their memorial.

This, be the reward of mine accusers, from Yahweh, even of them who are speaking wrongfully against my life.

But You, O God, the Lord, show kindness to me, for Your name’s sake;
Because Your lovingkindness (faithfulness, compassion) is good, O rescue me;

My knees are weak from fasting,
and my body is emaciated.

Help me, O Lord my God! Because you are faithful to me, deliver me!

They revile, and Thou dost bless, They have risen, and are ashamed, And Thy servant doth rejoice.

Mine accusers put on blushing, and are covered, As an upper robe is their shame.

The Lord said to my lord, Be seated at my right hand, till I put all those who are against you under your feet.

Thy people are free-will gifts in the day of Thy strength, in the honours of holiness, From the womb, from the morning, Thou hast the dew of thy youth.

The Lord has sworn an oath and will not take it back:
“Forever, You are a priest
like Melchizedek.”

The Lord’s works are great,
studied by all who delight in them.

Splendid and glorious are his awesome deeds, and his righteousness endures forever.

The works of His hands are truth and justice;
all His instructions are trustworthy.

They are established forever and ever,
enacted in truth and in what is right.

The fear of the Lord is the best part of wisdom: all those who keep his laws are wise: his praise is eternal.

Wealth and riches are in his house,
and his righteousness endures forever.

Light arises in the darkness for the upright;
He is gracious and compassionate and righteous (upright—in right standing with God).

Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!

Their idols are silver and gold,
made by human hands.

Those who make them are just like them,
as are all who trust in them.

Ye are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.

The heavens are the Lord’s,
but the earth He has given to the human race.

I said in my haste, All men are liars.

What do I return to Jehovah? All His benefits are upon me.

For His lovingkindness prevails over us [and we triumph and overcome through Him],
And the truth of the Lord endures forever.
Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!)

They are round me, yes, they are all about me; but in the name of the Lord I will have them cut down.
