Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers.

But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.

Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

Many there are who say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.

Salvation belongeth to the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.

But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call to him.

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

But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship towards thy holy temple.

For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulcher; they flatter with their tongue.

For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favor wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

My soul is also greatly disquieted: but thou, O LORD, how long?

For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who will give thee thanks?

My eye is consumed because of grief; it groweth old because of all my enemies.

Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.

O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there is iniquity in my hands;

If I have rewarded evil to him that was at peace with me; (yes, I have delivered him that without cause is my enemy:)

The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to my integrity that is in me.

My defense is from God, who saveth the upright in heart.

God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.

To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David. O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.

What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!

The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.

The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.

The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.

His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.

His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity.

He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net.

The LORD is King for ever and ever: the heathen have perished out of his land.

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. In the LORD I put my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?

The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD'S throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try the children of men.

Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?

The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.

There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.

Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.

In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoreth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.

But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.

The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.

I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.

Thou wilt show me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand are pleasures for evermore.

Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shade of thy wings.

They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;

Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.

Arise, O LORD disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, who is thy sword:

From men who are thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world, who have their portion in this life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid treasure: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their substance to their babes.

As for me, I shall behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.

The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.

I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from my enemies.

As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.

For who is God save the LORD? or who is a rock save our God?

It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.

He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by my arms.

Then I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I cast them out as the dirt in the streets.

As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves to me.

It is God that avengeth me, and subdueth the people under me.

There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.

Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.

His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit to the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from his heat.

The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.

The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.

The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.

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

Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.

His glory is great in thy salvation: honor and majesty hast thou laid upon him.

Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thy anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.

Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.

They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.

I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

For the kingdom is the LORD'S: and he is the governor among the nations.

A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD'S, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.

Who is this King of glory? the LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.

Who is this King of glory? the LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.

Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.

All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth to such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon my iniquity; for it is great.

What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.

The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will show them his covenant.

For thy loving-kindness is before my eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.

In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.

But as for me, I will walk in my integrity: redeem me, and be merciful to me.

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

Deliver me not over to the will of my enemies: for false witnesses have risen against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.

Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbors, but mischief is in their hearts.

The LORD is my strength, and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.

The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed.

The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the LORD is upon many waters.

The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favor is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: my eye is consumed with grief, yes, my soul and my belly.

For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of my iniquity, and my bones are consumed.
