Yet I have set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.

I cry to LORD with my voice, and he answers me out of his holy hill. Selah.

Hold them guilty, O God. Let them fall by their own counsels. Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions. For they have rebelled against thee.

My eye wastes away because of grief. It grows old because of all my adversaries.

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

if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me, (yea, I have delivered him without cause who was my adversary),

let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it. Yea, let him tread my life down to the earth, and lay my glory in the dust. Selah.

If a man does not repent, he will whet his sword. He has bent his bow, and made it ready.

He has made a pit, and dug it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.

Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou have {perfected praise (LXX/NT)}, because of thine adversaries, that thou might still the enemy and the avenger.

what is man that thou remember him? And the son of man that thou succor him?

When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish at thy presence.

Thou have rebuked the nations. Thou have destroyed the wicked. Thou have blotted out their name forever and ever.

The wicked man, in the pride of his countenance, [says], He will not require [it]. All his thoughts are, There is no God.

His ways are profane at all times. Thy judgments are far above out of his sight. As for all his adversaries, he puffs at them.

He lurks in secret as a lion in his covert. He lays in wait to catch the poor man. He catches the poor man when he draws him in his net.

He says in his heart, God has forgotten. He hides his face. He will never see it.

Why does the wicked man despise God, and say in his heart, Thou will not require [it]?

LORD is King forever and ever. The nations have perished out of his land.

For, lo, the wicked bend the bow. They make ready their arrow upon the string that they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.

If the foundations be destroyed, what can a righteous man do?

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

O that the salvation of Israel came out of Zion! When LORD brings back the captivity of his people, then Jacob shall rejoice, [and] Israel shall be glad.

he who puts not his money out to interest, nor takes a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be moved.

I {beheld (LXX/NT)} LORD always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

Hear the right, O LORD, attend to my cry. Give ear to my prayer, that goes not out of feigned lips.

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

In my distress I called upon LORD, and cried to my God. He heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry before him came into his ears.

There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured. Coals were kindled by it.

At the brightness before him his thick clouds passed, hailstones and coals of fire.

And he sent out his arrows, and scattered them, Yea, lightnings manifold, and discomfited them.

Then the channels of waters appeared, and the foundations of the world were laid bare at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.

He sent from on high, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.

Then I beat them small as the dust before the wind. I cast them out as the mire of the streets.

The foreigners shall fade away, and shall come trembling out of their close places.

Their line has gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tabernacle for the sun,

which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoices as a strong man to run his course.

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

send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion,

He asked life from thee. Thou gave it him, even length of days forever and ever.

Thy hand will find out all thine enemies. Thy right hand will find out those who hate thee.

All those who see me laugh me to scorn. They shoot out the lip. They shake the head, [saying],

But thou are he who took me out of the womb. Thou made me trust upon my mother's breasts.

I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint. My heart is like wax; it is melted within me.

The meek shall eat and be satisfied. They shall praise LORD who seek after him. Let your heart live forever.

All the fat ones of the earth shall eat and worship. All those who go down to the dust shall bow before him, even he who cannot keep his soul alive.

A seed shall serve him. It shall be told of LORD to the [next] generation.

They shall come and shall declare his righteousness to a people that shall be born, that he has done it.

For he has founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

Yea, none who wait for thee shall be put to shame. They shall be put to shame who deal treacherously without cause.

Guide me in thy truth, and teach me. For thou are the God of my salvation. For thee do I wait all the day.

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

What man is he who fears LORD? Him he shall instruct in the way that he shall choose.

His soul shall dwell at ease, and his seed shall inherit the land.

My eyes are ever toward LORD, for he will pluck my feet out of the net.

The troubles of my heart are enlarged. O bring thou me out of my distresses.

Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for thee.

Redeem Israel, O God, out all of his troubles.

When evil-doers came upon me to eat up my flesh, [even] my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.

Deliver me not over to the will of my adversaries. For FALSE witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.

Wait for LORD. Be strong, and let thy heart take courage. Yea, wait thou for LORD.

LORD sat [as King] at the Flood. Yea, LORD sits as King forever.

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

Pluck me out of the net that they have laid secretly for me, for thou are my stronghold.

I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind. I am like a broken vessel.

For he spoke, and it was done. He commanded, and it stood fast.

I will bless LORD at all times. His praise shall continually be in my mouth.

My soul shall make her boast in LORD. The humble shall hear of it, and be glad.

This poor man cried, and LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

What man is he who desires life, and loves [many] days, that he may see good?

Depart from evil, and do good. Seek peace, and pursue it.

They cried, and LORD heard, and delivered them out of all their troubles.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but LORD delivers him out of them all.

Draw out the spear also, and stop the way against those who pursue me. Say to my soul, I am thy salvation.

Let destruction come upon him unawares, and let his net that he has hid catch himself. Let him fall in it with destruction.

And my soul shall be joyful in LORD. It shall rejoice in his salvation.

I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother. I bowed down mourning, as he who bewails his mother.

But in my adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together. The wretches gathered themselves together against me, and I knew [it] not. They tore me, and ceased not.

Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me. They said, Aha, aha, our eye has seen it.

Thou have seen it, O LORD. Keep not silence. O LORD, be not far from me.

Let them not say in their heart, Aha, so would we have it. Let them not say, We have swallowed him up.

Let them be put to shame and confounded together who rejoice at my hurt. Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor who magnify themselves against me.

For he flatters himself in his own eyes, that his iniquity will not be found out and be hated.

Commit thy way to LORD. Trust also in him, and he will bring it to pass.

Rest in LORD, and wait patiently for him. Fret not thyself because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who brings wicked devices to pass.

Cease from anger, and forsake wrath. Fret not thyself, [it tends] only to evil-doing.

For evil-doers shall be cut off, but those who wait for LORD, they shall inherit the land.

For yet a little while, and the wicked man shall not be. Yea, thou shall diligently consider his place, and he shall not be.

LORD will laugh at him, for he sees that his day is coming.

The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, to kill such as are upright in the way.

I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen a righteous man forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.

The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell in it forever.

Wait for LORD, and keep his way, and he will exalt thee to inherit the land. When sinners are cut off, thou shall see it.

My heart throbs, my strength fails me. As for the light of my eyes, it also is gone from me.

LORD, make me to know my end, and the measure of my days, what it is. Let me know how frail I am.

Behold, thou have made my days [as] handbreadths, and my life-time is as nothing before thee. Surely every man at his best condition is altogether vanity. Selah.

And now, LORD, what do I wait for? My hope is in thee.

I was mute. I opened not my mouth, because thou did it.

Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear to my cry. Keep not silent at my tears, for I am a stranger with thee, a sojourner, as all my fathers were.

He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and he set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
