for Yahweh knows [the] way of [the] righteous, but [the] way of [the] wicked will perish.

"But as for me, I have set my king on Zion, my holy mountain."

But you, Yahweh, [are] a shield around me, my glory and the one who lifts up my head.

But know that Yahweh has set apart for himself [the] faithful one. Yahweh hears when I call to him.

Be disturbed but do not sin. Commune in your heart on your bed and be silent. Selah

{But as for me}, through the abundance of your steadfast love I will enter your house. I will bow down toward {your holy temple} in awe [of] you.

But let all who take shelter in you rejoice. Let them ever sing for joy, {because} you spread protection over them; And let those [who] love your name exult in you.

My soul is also very terrified. But you, O Yahweh, how long?

Let the evil of the wicked come to an end, but establish [the] righteous, and test the hearts and innermost being, O righteous God.

But Yahweh sits [enthroned] forever. He has established his throne for judgment.

[But] you have seen; indeed you have noted trouble and grief to take [it] into your hand. The helpless abandons [himself] upon you; you have been [the] helper [for the] orphan.

Yahweh tests [the] righteous, but [the] wicked and [the] lover of violence his soul hates.

But as for me, I have trusted in your steadfast love. My heart will rejoice in your deliverance.

In his eyes a rejected one [is] contemptible, but he honors those who respect Yahweh. He takes an oath to [his own] injury and does not retract it.

They confronted me on the day of disaster, but Yahweh was my support.

To [the] pure you show yourself pure. but to [the] wicked you show yourself shrewd.

For you deliver humble people, but haughty eyes you humiliate.

They cried out but there was no rescuer, [even] to Yahweh, but he did not answer them.

{Some boast in chariots and others in horses}, but we boast in the name of Yahweh, our God.

O my God, I call by day and you do not answer, and [by] night but I have no rest.

But I [am] a worm and not a man, scorned by humankind and despised by people.

But you, O Yahweh, do not remain distant. O my help, hasten to help me.

because he has not despised nor abhorred [the] affliction of [the] afflicted, and has not hid his face from him; but he listened to him when he cried for help.

But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me and be gracious to me.

For [there is] a moment in his anger; [there is] a lifetime in his favor. Weeping lodges for the evening, but in the morning [comes] rejoicing.

But as for me, I had said in my prosperity, "I shall not be moved ever."

I hate those devoted to useless idols, but I trust Yahweh.

But as for me, I trust you, O Yahweh. I say, "You [are] my God."

Love Yahweh, all you his faithful ones. Yahweh preserves [the] faithful but repays abundantly [the] one who acts arrogantly.

Many are [the] pains of the wicked, but [for] the one who trusts Yahweh loyal love surrounds him.

[The] young lions are in want and suffer hunger, but those who seek Yahweh will not lack for any good thing.

Many [are the] distresses of [the] righteous, but Yahweh delivers him out of them all.

But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing [was] sackcloth. I weakened my soul with fasting, and my prayer {returned to me unanswered}.

But at my stumbling they rejoiced and gathered together; smiters whom I did not know gathered against me. They tore and did not cease.

For they do not speak peace, but against [the] quiet [ones] of [the] land they plan deceitful words.

For evildoers will be cut off, but those who wait for Yahweh-- they will possess [the] land.

And yet a little [while] and the wicked will not be, and you will look carefully upon his place, but he will not be.

But [the] afflicted will possess [the] land, and they will take pleasure in an abundance of peace.

For [the] arms of [the] wicked shall be broken, but Yahweh supports [the] righteous.

But [the] wicked will perish, and the enemies of Yahweh [will be] like [the] splendor of [the] pastures. They vanish; in smoke they vanish.

[The] wicked borrows and does not repay, but [the] righteous [is] gracious and gives.

For those blessed [by] him shall possess [the] land, but those cursed [by] him shall be cut off.

I was a youth, but I am [now] old; yet I have not seen [the] righteous forsaken or his children {begging for} bread.

For Yahweh loves justice and will not forsake his faithful ones. They are protected forever. But [the] children of [the] wicked will be cut off.

Then he passed on and behold, he was not. And I sought him, but he could not be found.

But transgressors shall be destroyed altogether. [The] future of [the] wicked shall be cut off.

But as for me, like [the] deaf I cannot hear, and [I am] like [the] mute [who] cannot open his mouth.

Surely a man walks about as a [mere] {shadow}; surely in vain they bustle about. He heaps up [possessions] but does not know who [will] gather them [in].

But I [am] poor and needy. Let my Lord consider me. You [are] my help and my deliverer. O my God, do not delay.

But you, O Yahweh, be gracious to me and raise me up that I may repay them.

You [with] your hand drove out the nations, but them you planted. You harmed [the] peoples, but them you let spread out.

But you have crushed us in a place of jackals, and have covered us with deep shadow.

But man cannot continue in [his] pomp. He is like the beasts [that] perish.

Like sheep they are destined to Sheol; death will shepherd them. But the upright will rule over them in the morning, and their forms [will be for] Sheol to consume, [far from] his lofty abode.

Humankind in [its] pomp, but does not understand, is like the beasts [that] perish.

But to the wicked God says, "What [right] have you to recite my statutes and {mention my covenant with your mouth},

but God will pull you down forever. He will snatch you and tear you away from [your] tent, and [he] will uproot you from [the] land of [the] living. Selah

"Look, the man [who] would not make God his refuge, but he trusted in the greatness of his wealth; he took refuge in his destructiveness."

But I [am] like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God. I trust the loyal love of God forever and ever.

But [it is] you, a man my equal, my friend and confidant.

The {buttery words} of his mouth were smooth, but [there was] battle in his heart. His words were smoother than oil, but they [were] drawn swords.

But you, O God, you will bring them down to [the] pit of corruption. [The] men of bloodshed and deceit will not live half their days, but I will trust you.

But you, O Yahweh, will laugh at them; you will mock all [the] nations.

But as for me, I will sing [of] your strength, and I will hail your loyal love in the morning, because you have been my [high] stronghold and a refuge in my {time} of trouble.

They only plan to thrust [him] down from his high position; they are pleased [with] deception. With their mouths they bless, but {inwardly} they curse. Selah

But as for them [who] seek my life for ruin, they will go into the depths of the earth.

But God will shoot them; with an arrow they will suddenly be wounded.

You let men ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water, but you have brought us out to the place of abundance.

But [the] righteous will be glad; they will exalt before God, and will rejoice with joy.

God settles the lonely in a home; he brings prisoners out into prosperity. But the rebellious abide in a barren land.

But God will shatter the head of his enemies, the hairy scalp [of the one who] {continues on} in his guilt.

But as for me, my prayer [is] to you, O Yahweh, for a favorable time, O God, according to the abundance of your loyal love. Answer me with the faithfulness of your salvation.

Reproach has broken my heart and I am sick. And I hoped for sympathy, but there was none, and for comforters, but I found none.

But as for me, [though] I [am] afflicted and pained, your salvation will protect me, O God.

But I [am] poor and needy; O God hasten to me. You [are] my help and my deliverer. O Yahweh, do not delay.

I have become a wonder to many, but you [are] my strong refuge.

But as for me, I will hope continually and increase your praise.

But as for me, my feet had almost stumbled. My steps had nearly slipped,

But I [am] continually with you; you have hold of my right hand.

My flesh and heart failed, [but] God [is] the {strength} of my heart and my reward forever.

But as for me, the approach to God [is] for my good. I have set the Lord Yahweh [as] my refuge, in order to tell all your works.

But God [has been] my king from long ago, working salvation in the midst of the earth.

But as for me, I will proclaim forever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.

that they might set their confidence in God, and not forget the deeds of God, but keep his commandments,

But they sinned still further against him by rebelling [against the] Most High in the desert.

Yes, he struck [the] rock and water flowed and streams gushed out, [but] can he also give food or provide meat for his people?"

But they enticed him with their mouth and lied to him with their tongue.

But he [was] compassionate; he pardoned [their] guilt and did not destroy [them]. And many [times] he turned back his anger and did not stir up all his wrath,

He cleared a path for his anger. He did not spare them from death but handed their life over to the plague.

And he led them safely and they were not afraid, but the sea covered their enemies.

But they tested and rebelled against God Most High and did not keep his statutes.

but chose the tribe of Judah, {Mount Zion} that he loved.

Hear, O my people, and I will admonish you; O Israel, if you would [but] listen to me.

But my people did not listen to my voice, and Israel did not yield to me.

But he would feed him from [the] choicest wheat, and I would satisfy you with honey from a rock."

I will hear what God, Yahweh, will speak, because he will speak peace to his people, even his faithful [ones], but let them not return to folly.

O God, arrogant men have risen up against me, even a gang of ruthless men seek my life, but they do not set you before them.

But you, O Lord, [are] a compassionate and gracious God, {slow to anger} and abundant in loyal love and faithfulness.

But with respect to Zion it shall be said, "{Each one} was born in her," for the Most High himself will establish her.

But as for me, I cry for help to you, O Yahweh, and in the morning my prayer comes before you.
