And he shall be like a tree planted by the waterside, that will bring forth his fruit in due season. His leaf, also, shall not wither; and, look, whatsoever he doeth, it shall prosper.

Therefore the ungodly shall not be able to stand in the judgment, neither the sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

Be wise now therefore, O ye kings; be warned, ye that are judges of the earth.

Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and so ye perish from the right way. For his wrath shall be kindled shortly: blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

Many ones there be that say of my soul, "There is no help for him in his God." Selah.

I will not be afraid for ten thousands of the people that have set themselves against me.

Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart, and in your chamber, and be still. Selah.

There be many that say, "Who will show us any good? LORD lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us."

Such as be foolish shall not stand in thy sight, for thou hatest all them that work vanity.

And let all them that put their trust in thee rejoice. They shall ever be giving of thanks, because thou defendest them. They that love thy name shall be joyful in thee;

All mine enemies shall be confounded and sore vexed; they shall be turned back and put to shame suddenly.

O LORD my God, if I have done any such thing, or if there be any wickedness in my hands,

If a man will not turn, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow and made it ready.

I will be glad and rejoice in thee; yea, my songs will I make of thy name, O thou most highest.

The LORD also will be a defense for the oppressed, even a refuge in due time of trouble.

The wicked must be turned unto hell, and all the people that forget God.

For the poor shall not always be forgotten; the patient abiding of the meek shall not perish forever.

Arise, LORD, and let no man have the upper hand; let the Heathen be judged in thy sight.

O LORD, put a schoolmaster over them, that the Heathen may know themselves to be but men. Selah.

While the ungodly hath the overhand, the poor must suffer persecution; let them be taken in the crafty wiliness that they have imagined!

For he hath said in his heart, "Tush, I shall never be cast down; there shall no harm happen unto me."

to help the fatherless and the poor unto their right, that the man of the earth be no more exalted against them.

For lo, the ungodly bend their bow, and make ready their arrows within the quiver, that they may privily shoot at them which are true of heart.

For the foundations will be cast down, and what hath the righteous done?

Upon the ungodly he shall rain snares, fire, brimstone, storm and tempest: this shall be their portion to drink.

How long shall I seek counsel in my soul, and be so vexed in my heart? How long shall mine enemies triumph over me?

lest mine enemy say, "I have prevailed against him." For if I be cast down, they that trouble me will rejoice at it.

Who shall give salvation unto Israel out of Zion? When the LORD turneth the captivity of his people, then shall Jacob rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

He that sitteth not by himself, but is lowly in his own eyes, and maketh much of them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth unto his neighbour, and disappointeth him not, though it were to his own hindrance.

They have children at their desire, and leave the rest of their substance for their babes. But as for me, I shall behold thy presence in righteousness: and when I awake up after thy likeness, I shall be satisfied with it.

3 I will call upon the LORD, which is worthy to be praised; so shall I be safe from mine enemies. {TYNDALE: I will praise and call on the LORD, and so shall be saved from mine enemies.}

The springs of waters were seen, and the foundations of the round world were discovered at thy chiding, O LORD, at the blasting of the breath of thy displeasures. {TYNDALE: And the bottom of the sea appeared, and the foundations of the world were seen, by the reason of the rebuking of the LORD, and through the blasting of the breath of his nostrils.}

With the holy thou shalt be holy, and with a perfect man thou shalt be perfect. {TYNDALE: With the holy thou shalt be holy, and with the man that is uncorrupt, thou shalt be uncorrupt.}

With the clean thou shalt be clean, and with the froward thou shalt be froward. {TYNDALE: With the pure thou shalt be pure, and with the froward thou shalt be froward also.}

Thou also shalt light my candle; the LORD my God shall make my darkness to be light. {TYNDALE: Thou art my light, O LORD, and the LORD shall light my darkness.}

For in thee I can discomfit a host of men, and with the help of my God I shall leap over the wall. {TYNDALE: With thy help I will run through a host of men, and by the aid of my God will spring over a wall.}

He teacheth my hands to fight, and mine arms shall bend even a bow of steel. {TYNDALE: And teacheth my hands to fight, that a bow of brass is too weak for mine arms.}

I will smite them, that they shall not be able to stand, but fall under my feet. {TYNDALE: I wasted them and so clouted them, that they could not arise: but fell under my feet.}

They shall cry, but there shall be none to help them: Yea, even unto the LORD shall they cry, but he shall hear them not. {TYNDALE: They looked for help, but none came to save them: unto the LORD they cried, but he heard them not.}

Thou shalt deliver me from the strivings of the people, and thou shalt make me the head of the Heathen. A people whom I have not known shall serve me. {TYNDALE: And thou deliveredst me from the dissension of my people, and keepest me to be a head over nations, for the people which I knew not became my servants.}

The strange children shall fail, and be afraid out of their prisons. {TYNDALE: And the aliens that shrink away shall tremble for fear in their defended places.}

The LORD liveth: and blessed be my strong helper, and praised be the God of my salvation, {TYNDALE: The LORD live, and blessed be he that is my strength: and exalted be God the strength that saveth me.}

Even the God that seeth that I be avenged, and subdueth the people unto me. {TYNDALE: It is God that avengeth me, and bringeth down the people under me.}

More to be desired are they than gold, yea than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.

Moreover, by them is thy servant taught, and in keeping of them there is great reward.

Keep thy servant also from presumptuous sins, lest they get dominion over me: so shall I be undefiled and innocent from the great offense.

Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD; my strength and my redeemer.

{To the Chanter, a Psalm of David} The King shall rejoice in thy strength, O LORD; exceeding glad shall he be of thy salvation.

Therefore shalt thou put them to flight, and the strings of thy bow shalt thou make ready against the face of them.

Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength; so will we sing and praise thy power.

But be not thou far from me, O LORD; thou art my succor. Haste thee to help me.

The poor shall eat, and be satisfied: they that seek after the LORD shall praise him. Your heart shall live for ever.

All the ends of the world shall remember themselves, and be turned unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the people shall worship before him.

All such as be fat upon earth have eaten and worshipped. All they that go down into the dust shall kneel before him; and no man hath quickened his own soul.

My seed shall serve him; they shall be counted unto the LORD for a generation.

They shall come, and declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, whom the LORD hath made.

Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

My God, I have put my trust in thee. O let me not be confounded, neither let mine enemies triumph over me.

For all they that hope in thee shall not be ashamed; but such as transgress without a cause shall be put to confusion.

For thy name's sake, O LORD, be merciful unto my sin; for it is great.

O keep my soul, and deliver me; let me not be confounded, for I have put my trust in thee.

{A Psalm of David} Be thou my Judge, O LORD, for I walk innocently. My trust hath been also in the LORD; therefore shall I not fall.

But as for me, I will walk innocently: O deliver me, and be merciful unto me.

{A Psalm of David} The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom then should I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom then shall I be afraid?

Though a host of men were laid against me, yet shall not my heart be afraid; and though there rose up war against me, yet will I put my trust in him.

O tarry thou the LORD's leisure. Be strong, and he shall comfort thine heart; and put thou thy trust in the LORD.

Reward them according to their deeds and wickedness of their own inventions. Recompense them after the works of their hands; pay them that they have deserved.

Praised be the LORD, for he hath heard the voice of my humble petitions.

And in my prosperity I said, "I shall never be removed." And why? Thou, LORD, of thy goodness, hast made my hill so strong.

Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me. LORD, be thou my helper.

{To the Chanter, A Psalm of David} In thee, O LORD, have I put my trust; let me never be put to confusion. Deliver me in thy righteousness.

Bow down thine ear to me; make haste to deliver me. And be thou my strong rock, and a house of defense, that thou mayest save me.

For thou art my stronghold and my castle: be thou also my guide, and lead me for thy name's sake.

I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy; for thou hast considered my trouble,

Let me not be confounded, O LORD, for I have called upon thee: let the ungodly be put to confusion, and put to silence in the grave.

Let the lying lips be put to silence, which cruelly, disdainfully, and despitefully speak against the righteous.

Thou shalt hide them privily by thine own presence from the provoking of all men; thou shalt keep them secretly in thy tabernacle from the strife of tongues.

Thanks be to the LORD; for he hath showed me marvelous great kindness in a strong city.

Be strong, and he shall establish your heart, all ye that put your trust in the LORD.

Be ye not like to horse and mule, which have no understanding, whose mouths must be held with bit and bridle, if they will not obey thee.

Be glad, O ye righteous, and rejoice in the LORD; and be joyful, all ye that are true of heart.

Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous, for it becometh well the just to be thankful.

By the word of the LORD were the heavens made, and all the hosts of them by the breath of his mouth.

The LORD bringeth the counsel of the Heathen to naught, and maketh the devices of the people to be of none effect, and casteth out the counsels of princes.

Blessed are the people whose God is the LORD Jehovah; and blessed are the folk whom he hath chosen to be his inheritance.

There is no king that can be saved by the multitude of a host; neither is any mighty man delivered by much strength.

A horse is counted but a vain thing to save a man; neither shall he deliver any man by his great strength.

Let thy merciful kindness, O LORD, be upon us, like as we do put our trust in thee.

{Of David, when he changed his speech before Abimelech; which drove him away, and he departed} I will always give thanks unto the LORD; his praise shall ever be in my mouth.

My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.

The LORD is nigh unto them that are contrite in heart, and will save such as be of a humble spirit.

But misfortune shall slay the ungodly; and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.

The LORD delivereth the souls of his servants, and all they that put their trust in him shall not be destitute.

Let them be confounded, and put to shame, that seek after my soul; let them be turned back and brought to confusion, that imagine mischief for me.

Let them be as the dust before the wind, and the angel of the LORD scattering them.

Let their way be dark and slippery, and let the angel of the LORD to persecute them.

But let my soul be joyful in the LORD, and rejoice in his salvation.

Let them be put to confusion and shame together, that rejoice at my trouble: let them be clothed with rebuke and dishonour, that boast themselves against me.

Let them be glad and rejoice, that favour my righteous dealing; yea, let them say always, "Blessed be the LORD, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant."
