Sing praises to the Lord, who dwells in Zion;
Declare among the peoples His [great and wondrous] deeds.

Save and help and rescue, Lord, for godly people cease to be,
For the faithful vanish from among the sons of men.

The wicked strut about [in pompous self-importance] on every side,
As vileness is exalted and baseness is prized among the sons of men.

Therefore will I give thanks and praise You, O Lord, among the nations,
And sing praises to Your name.

Their offspring You will destroy from the earth,
And their descendants from the sons of men.

They divide my clothing among them
And cast lots for my garment.

I will give You thanks in the great congregation;
I will praise You among a mighty people.

You have made us like sheep to be eaten [as mutton]
And have scattered us [in exile] among the nations.

You make us a byword among the nations,
A laughingstock among the people.

Kings’ daughters are among Your noble ladies;
At Your right hand stands the queen in gold from Ophir.

“Be still and know (recognize, understand) that I am God.
I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth.”

My life is among lions;
I must lie among those who breathe out fire—
The sons of men whose teeth are spears and arrows,
And their tongue a sharp sword.

I will praise and give thanks to You, O Lord, among the people;
I will sing praises to You among the nations.

Who keeps us among the living,
And does not allow our feet to slip or stumble.

God be gracious and kind-hearted to us and bless us,
And make His face shine [with favor] on us— Selah.

That Your way may be known on earth,
Your salvation and deliverance among all nations.

When you lie down [to rest] among the sheepfolds,
You [Israel] are like the wings of a dove [of victory] overlaid with silver,
Its feathers glistening with gold [trophies taken from the enemy].

The chariots of God are myriads, thousands upon thousands;
The Lord is among them as He was at Sinai, in holiness.

Rebuke the beasts [living] among the reeds [in Egypt],
The herd of bulls (the leaders) with the calves of the peoples;
Trampling underfoot the pieces of silver;
He has scattered the peoples who delight in war.

May they be blotted out of the book of life [and their lives come to an end]
And may they not be recorded with the righteous (those in right standing with God).

We do not see our symbols;
There is no longer any prophet [to guide us],
Nor does any among us know for how long.

You are the [awesome] God who works [powerful] wonders;
You have demonstrated Your power among the people.

He sent among them swarms of flies which devoured them,
And frogs which destroyed them.

He sent upon them His burning anger,
His fury and indignation and distress,
A band of angels of destruction [among them].

So that He abandoned the tabernacle at Shiloh,
The tent in which He had dwelled among men,

Why should the [Gentile] nations say, “Where is their God?”
Let there be known [without delay] among the nations in our sight [and to this generation],
Your vengeance for the blood of Your servants which has been poured out.

You make us an object of contention to our neighbors,
And our enemies laugh [at our suffering] among themselves.

“Let there be no strange god among you,
Nor shall you worship any foreign god.

God stands in the divine assembly;
He judges among the gods (divine beings).

There is no one like You among the gods, O Lord,
Nor are there any works [of wonder and majesty] like Yours.

“I will mention Rahab (Egypt) and Babylon among those who know Me—
Behold, Philistia and Tyre with Ethiopia (Cush)—
‘This one was born there.’”

I am counted among those who go down to the pit (grave);
I am like a man who has no strength [a mere shadow],

Cast away [from the living] and abandoned among the dead,
Like the slain who lie in a [nameless] grave,
Whom You no longer remember,
And they are cut off from Your hand.

For who in the heavens can be compared to the Lord?
Who among the divine beings is like the Lord,

Once You spoke in a vision to Your godly ones,
And said, “I have given help to one who is mighty [giving him the power to be a champion for Israel];
I have exalted one chosen from the people.

Consider thoughtfully, you senseless (stupid ones) among the people;
And you [dull-minded] fools, when will you become wise and understand?

Declare His glory among the nations,
His marvelous works and wonderful deeds among all the peoples.

Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns;
Indeed, the world is firmly and securely established, it shall not be moved;
He will judge and rule the people with fairness.”

Moses and Aaron were among His priests,
And Samuel was among those who called on His name;
They called upon the Lord and He answered them.

You send springs into the valleys;
Their waters flow among the mountains.

Beside them the birds of the heavens have their nests;
They lift up their voices and sing among the branches.

O give thanks to the Lord, call upon His name;
Make known His deeds among the people.

They exhibited His wondrous signs among them,
Great miracles in the land of Ham (Egypt).

He brought the sons of Israel out [of Egypt] with silver and gold,
And among their tribes there was not one who stumbled.

And that He would cast out their descendants among the nations
And scatter them in the lands [of the earth].

Thus they provoked Him to anger with their practices,
And a plague broke out among them.

He also made them objects of compassion
Among those who had carried them away captive.

Save us, O Lord our God,
And gather us from among the nations,
That we may give thanks to Your holy name
And glory in praising You.

I will praise and give thanks to You, O Lord, among the people;
And I will sing praises to You among the nations.

God has spoken in His holiness:
“I will rejoice, I will portion out Shechem [as I divide Canaan among My people],
And measure out the Valley of Succoth.

I will give great praise and thanks to the Lord with my mouth;
And in the midst of many I will praise Him.

The Lord is on my side, He is among those who help me;
Therefore I will look [in triumph] on those who hate me.

Woe to me, for I sojourn in Meshech,
and I live among the tents of Kedar [among hostile people]!

Then our mouth was filled with laughter
And our tongue with joyful shouting;
Then they said among the nations,
“The Lord has done great things for them.”

And brought Israel out from among them,
For His lovingkindness endures forever;
