My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.

Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.

“It shall be established forever like the moon,
And the witness in the heavens is ever faithful.” Selah.

All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours.

You have shortened the days of his youth;
You have covered him with shame. Selah.

What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.

Where is your gracious love of old, Lord, that in your faithfulness you promised to David?

Remember, LORD, the rebuke that the multitude of the people do unto thy servants, and how I have borne it in my bosom;

In that thy foes have reproached, O Yahweh, In that they have reproached the footsteps of thine Anointed One!

Yes, in your eyes a thousand years are like yesterday that quickly passes, or like one of the divisions of the nighttime.

You bring their lives to an end and they "fall asleep." In the morning they are like the grass that sprouts up;

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

The days of our age are threescore years and ten: and though men be so strong that they come to fourscore years, yet is their strength then but labour and sorrow; so soon passeth it away, and we are gone.

Who understands the power of Your anger? [Who connects this brevity of life among us with Your judgment of sin?]
And Your wrath, [who connects it] with the [reverent] fear that is due You?

So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.

O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

Comfort us again, now after the time that thou hast plagued us, and for the years wherein we have suffered adversity.

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

He shall defend thee under his wings, that thou mayest be safe under his feathers: his faithfulness and truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

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 noonday.

They shall bear thee in their hands, that thou hurt not thy foot against a stone.

A man that is brutish, cannot know, And, dullard, cannot discern this: -

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:

You exalt my horn like that of a wild ox. I am covered with fresh oil.

Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.

Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.

To shew that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.

The waves of the sea are mighty, and rage horribly; but yet the LORD that dwelleth on high is mightier.

O Lord, they crush your people; they oppress the nation that belongs to you.

He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?

He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know?

The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.

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

Certainly the Lord does not forsake his people; he does not abandon the nation that belongs to him.

When I say that my foot is shaking, your gracious love, LORD, will sustain me.

In the multitude of the sorrows that I had in my heart, thy comforts have refreshed my soul.

Shall the throne that inflicteth ruin, have fellowship with thee, That frameth oppression, by statute?

The sea that he made belongs to him, along with the dry land that his hands formed.

for he is our God. We are the people of his pasture, and the sheep in his care. Today, oh that you would hear his voice.

do not be stubborn like your ancestors were at Meribah, as on that day at Massah, in the wilderness,

Forty years long was I grieved with that generation, and said, "They ever err in their hearts, they verily have not known my ways."

Therefore I said unto them in my wrath, that they should not enter into my rest.

Sing to Yahweh, a song that is new, Sing to Yahweh, all the earth;

As for all the gods of the Heathen, they are but Idols, but it is the LORD that made the heavens. {TYNDALE: For all the gods of the heathen are Idols; But the LORD made the heavens.}

Tell it out among the Heathen, that the LORD is king: and that it is he who hath made the round world so fast, that it can not be moved, and how that he shall judge the people righteously. Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad. {TYNDALE: He established the earth that it cannot move. The heaven rejoice and the earth be glad. And let men tell among the nations that the LORD is a king.}

Let the sea make a noise, yea and all that therein is. {TYNDALE: Let the sea thunder, and his fullness;}

Let the field be joyful, and all that is in it, let all the trees of the wood leap for joy before the LORD, {TYNDALE: And let the fields rejoice and all that is therein. Moreover, let the trees of the wood ring at the presence of the LORD:}

Fire, before him, proceedeth, That it may consume, round about, his adversaries.

The heavens declare his righteousness so that all the nations see his glory.

Confounded be all they that worship images, and delight in their idols; worship him all ye gods.

For thou, LORD, art higher than all that are in the earth; thou art exalted far above all gods.

O ye that love the LORD, see that ye hate the thing which is evil. The LORD preserveth the souls of his saints; he shall deliver them from the hand of the ungodly.

Sing to Yahweh, a song that is new, For, wonderful things, hath he done, His own right hand and hi holy arm, have brought him salvation.

He hath remembered his mercy and truth toward the house of Israel: so that all the ends of the world see the salvation of our God.

Let the sea make a noise and all that therein is; yea, the whole world, and all that dwell therein.

The king is strong; he loves justice. You ensure that legal decisions will be made fairly; you promote justice and equity in Jacob.

Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon the LORD, and he answered them.

He spake unto them out of the cloudy pillar; for they kept his testimonies, and the law that he gave them.

Thou answeredst them, O LORD our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.

Be ye sure, that the LORD he is God; it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves. We are but his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

O let me have understanding in the ways of Godliness, until the time that thou come unto me! I will walk in my house with a perfect heart.

I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.

Mine eyes shall look for such as be faithful in the land, that they may dwell with me. Whoso leadeth a godly life, he shall be my servant.

There shall no deceitful person dwell in my house; he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.

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.

Hide not thy face from me in the time of my trouble; incline thine ear unto me when I call. O hear me, and that right soon.

My heart is smitten down, and withered like grass, so that I forget to eat my bread.

Because of the anxiety that makes me groan, my bones protrude from my skin.

I watch, and am even as it were a sparrow that sitteth alone upon the housetop.

Mine enemies revile me all the day long; and they that are mad upon me are sworn together against me.

and that because of thine indignation and wrath; for thou hast taken me up, and cast me down.

My days are like a shadow that declineth; and I am withered like grass.

Seeing that thy servants, take pleasure, in her stones, And, her dust, they favour:

That the nations may revere thy Name, O Yahweh, And all the kings of the earth, thy glory.

This shall be written for those that come after, that the people which shall be born may praise the LORD.

That he looked down, out of his holy height, Yahweh, from the heavens unto the earth, directed his gaze; -

that he may hear the mournings of such as be in captivity, and deliver the children that are appointed unto death,

that they may preach the name of the LORD in Zion, and his worship at Jerusalem,

{Of David} Praise the LORD, O my soul, and all that is within me praise his holy name.

Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.

The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment, for all them that are oppressed with wrong.

For look how high the heaven is in comparison of the earth; so great is his mercy also toward them that fear him.

As distant as the east is from the west, that is how far he has removed our sins from us.

Yea, like as a father pitieth his own children, even so is the LORD merciful unto them that fear him.

For he knoweth whereof we be made, he remembereth that we are but dust;

that a man in his time is but as grass, and flourisheth as a flower of the field.

But the merciful goodness of the LORD endureth for ever and ever upon them that fear him, and his righteousness upon their children's children;

To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.

O praise the LORD ye angels of his, ye that excel in strength, ye that fulfill his commandment, and hearken unto the voice of his word.

O praise the LORD all ye his hosts, ye servants of his that do his pleasure.

Praise the Lord, all that he has made, in all the regions of his kingdom! Praise the Lord, O my soul!

Thou hast laid the foundations of the earth, that it never should move at any time.

Thou coveredst it with the deep like as with a garment, so that the waters stand above the hills.

They ascended [the] mountains [and] drained though the valleys to [the] place that you established for them.

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

He causes springs to gush forth into rivers that flow between the mountains.

that all the beasts of the field may have drink, and that the wild asses may quench their thirst.
