Many are saying of my soul, 'There is no salvation for him in God.' Selah.

Rise, O Jehovah! save me, my God. Because Thou hast smitten All mine enemies on the cheek. The teeth of the wicked Thou hast broken.

To the Overseer with Stringed Instruments. -- A Psalm of David. In my calling answer Thou me, O God of my righteousness. In adversity Thou gavest enlargement to me; Favour me, and hear my prayer.

Many are saying, 'Who doth show us good?' Lift on us the light of Thy face, O Jehovah,

Be attentive to the voice of my cry, My king and my God, For unto Thee I pray habitually.

For not a God desiring wickedness art Thou, Evil inhabiteth Thee not.

Declare them guilty, O God, Let them fall from their own counsels, In the abundance of their transgressions Drive them away, Because they have rebelled against Thee.

'The Erring One,' by David, that he sung to Jehovah concerning the words of Cush a Benjamite. O Jehovah, my God, in Thee I have trusted, Save me from all my pursuers, and deliver me.

O Jehovah, my God, if I have done this, If there is iniquity in my hands,

Let, I pray Thee be ended the evil of the wicked, And establish Thou the righteous, And a trier of hearts and reins is the righteous God.

My shield is on God, Saviour of the upright in heart!

God is a righteous judge, And He is not angry at all times.

The wicked do turn back to Sheol, All nations forgetting God.

The wicked according to the height of his face, inquireth not. 'God is not!' are all his devices.

He said in his heart, 'God hath forgotten, He hath hid His face, He hath never seen.'

Arise, O Jehovah! O God, lift up Thy hand! Forget not the humble.

Wherefore hath the wicked despised God? He hath said in his heart, 'It is not required.'

Jehovah doth cut off all lips of flattery, A tongue speaking great things,

Look attentively; Answer me, O Jehovah, my God, Enlighten mine eyes, lest I sleep in death,

To the Overseer. -- By David. A fool hath said in his heart, 'God is not;' They have done corruptly, They have done abominable actions, There is not a doer of good.

Jehovah from the heavens Hath looked on the sons of men, To see if there is a wise one -- seeking God.

The whole have turned aside, Together they have been filthy: There is not a doer of good, not even one.

There they have feared a fear, For God is in the generation of the righteous.

A Secret Treasure of David. Preserve me, O God, for I did trust in Thee.

Thou hast said to Jehovah, 'My Lord Thou art;' My good is not for thine own sake;

I -- I called Thee, for Thou dost answer me, O God, incline Thine ear to me, hear my speech.

Jehovah is my rock, and my bulwark, And my deliverer, My God is my rock, I trust in Him: My shield, and a horn of my salvation, My high tower.

In mine adversity I call Jehovah, And unto my God I cry. He heareth from His temple my voice, And My cry before Him cometh into His ears.

For I have kept the ways of Jehovah, And have not done wickedly against my God.

For Thou -- Thou lightest my lamp, Jehovah my God enlighteneth my darkness.

For by Thee I run -- a troop! And by my God I leap a wall.

God! perfect is His way, The saying of Jehovah is tried, A shield is He to all those trusting in Him.

For who is God besides Jehovah? And who is a rock save our God?

God! who is girding me with strength, And He maketh perfect my way.

As to mine enemies -- Thou hast given to me the neck, As to those hating me -- I cut them off.

Jehovah liveth -- and blessed is my rock, And exalted is the God of my salvation.

God -- who is giving vengeance to me, And He subdueth peoples under me,

To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. The heavens are recounting the honour of God, And the work of His hands The expanse is declaring.

To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. Jehovah doth answer thee, In a day of adversity, The name of the God of Jacob doth set thee on high,

We sing of thy salvation, And in the name of our God set up a banner. Jehovah doth fulfil all thy requests.

Some of chariots, and some of horses, And we of the name of Jehovah our God Make mention.

To the Overseer, on 'The Hind of the Morning.' -- A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me? Far from my salvation, The words of my roaring?

My God, I call by day, and Thou answerest not, And by night, and there is no silence to me.

On Thee I have been cast from the womb, From the belly of my mother Thou art my God.

In pastures of tender grass He causeth me to lie down, By quiet waters He doth lead me.

He beareth away a blessing from Jehovah, Righteousness from the God of his salvation.

My God, in Thee I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed, Let not mine enemies exult over me.

Cause me to tread in Thy truth, and teach me, For Thou art the God of my salvation, Near Thee I have waited all the day.

Good and upright is Jehovah, Therefore He directeth sinners in the way.

His soul in good doth remain, And his seed doth possess the land.

Redeem Israel, O God, from all his distresses!

Hide not Thy face from me, Turn not aside in anger Thy servant, My help Thou hast been. Leave me not, nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.

The voice of Jehovah is on the waters, The God of glory hath thundered, Jehovah is on many waters.

Jehovah my God, I have cried to Thee, And Thou dost heal me.

For -- a moment is in His anger, Life is in His good-will, At even remaineth weeping, and at morn singing.

O Jehovah, in Thy good pleasure, Thou hast caused strength to remain for my mountain,' Thou hast hidden Thy face -- I have been troubled.

So that honour doth praise Thee, and is not silent, O Jehovah, my God, to the age I thank Thee!

Into Thy hand I commit my spirit, Thou hast redeemed me, Jehovah God of truth.

And I on Thee -- I have trusted, O Jehovah, I have said, 'Thou art my God.'

And I -- I have said in my haste, 'I have been cut off from before Thine eyes,' But Thou hast heard the voice of my supplications, In my crying unto Thee.

O the happiness of the nation whose God is Jehovah, Of the people He did choose, For an inheritance to Him.

Taste ye and see that Jehovah is good, O the happiness of the man who trusteth in Him.

Young lions have lacked and been hungry, And those seeking Jehovah lack not any good,

Who is the man that is desiring life? Loving days to see good?

Turn aside from evil and do good, Seek peace and pursue it.

(The face of Jehovah is on doers of evil, To cut off from earth their memorial.)

They pay me evil for good, bereaving my soul,

For they speak not peace, And against the quiet of the land, Deceitful words they devise,

Stir up, and wake to my judgment, My God, and my Lord, to my plea.

Judge me according to Thy righteousness, O Jehovah my God, And they do not rejoice over me.

To the Overseer. -- By a servant of Jehovah, by David. The transgression of the wicked Is affirming within my heart, 'Fear of God is not before his eyes,

The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit, He ceased to act prudently -- to do good.

Iniquity he deviseth on his bed, He stationeth himself on a way not good, Evil he doth not refuse.'

Thy righteousness is as mountains of God, Thy judgments are a great deep. Man and beast Thou savest, O Jehovah.

How precious is Thy kindness, O God, And the sons of men In the shadow of Thy wings do trust.

For as grass speedily they are cut off, And as the greenness of the tender grass do fade.

Trust in Jehovah, and do good, Dwell in the land, and enjoy faithfulness,

For evil doers are cut off, As to those waiting on Jehovah, they possess the land.

For His blessed ones do possess the land, And His reviled ones are cut off.

Turn aside from evil, and do good, and dwell to the age.

For Jehovah is loving judgment, And He doth not forsake His saintly ones, To the age they have been kept, And the seed of the wicked is cut off.

The law of his God is his heart, His steps do not slide.

Look unto Jehovah, and keep His way, And He doth exalt thee to possess the land, In the wicked being cut off -- thou seest!

And transgressors were destroyed together, The latter end of the wicked was cut off.

Because for Thee, O Jehovah, I have waited, Thou dost answer, O Lord my God.

And those paying evil for good accuse me, Because of my pursuing good.

Do not forsake me, O Jehovah, My God, be not far from me,

I was dumb with silence, I kept silent from good, and my pain is excited.

And He putteth in my mouth a new song, 'Praise to our God.' Many do see and fear, and trust in Jehovah.

Much hast Thou done, Jehovah my God; Thy wonders and Thy thoughts toward us, There is none to arrange unto Thee, I declare and speak: They have been more than to be numbered.

To do Thy pleasure, my God, I have delighted, And Thy law is within my heart.

And I am poor and needy, The Lord doth devise for me. My help and my deliverer art Thou, O my God, tarry Thou not.

Blessed is Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age -- and unto the age. Amen and Amen.

To the Overseer. -- An Instruction. By sons of Korah. As a hart doth pant for streams of water, So my soul panteth toward Thee, O God.

My soul thirsted for God, for the living God, When do I enter and see the face of God?

My tear hath been to me bread day and night, In their saying unto me all the day, 'Where is thy God?'

These I remember, and pour out my soul in me, For I pass over into the booth, I go softly with them unto the house of God, With the voice of singing and confession, The multitude keeping feast!

What! bowest thou thyself, O my soul? Yea, art thou troubled within me? Wait for God, for still I confess Him: The salvation of my countenance -- My God!

By day Jehovah commandeth His kindness, And by night a song is with me, A prayer to the God of my life.

I say to God my rock, 'Why hast Thou forgotten me? Why go I mourning in the oppression of an enemy?
