Pay homage to the Son or He will be angry
and you will perish in your rebellion,
for His anger may ignite at any moment.
All those who take refuge in Him are happy.

Many say about me,
“There is no help for him in God.”Selah

Know that the Lord has set apart
the faithful for Himself;
the Lord will hear when I call to Him.

For You, Lord, bless the righteous one;
You surround him with favor like a shield.

what is man that You remember him,
the son of man that You look after him?

You made him little less than God
and crowned him with glory and honor.

You made him lord over the works of Your hands;
You put everything under his feet:

he lurks in secret like a lion in a thicket.
He lurks in order to seize the afflicted;
he seizes the afflicted and drags him in his net.

My enemy will say, “I have triumphed over him,”
and my foes will rejoice because I am shaken.

Rise up, Lord!
Confront him; bring him down.
With Your sword, save me from the wicked.

I called to the Lord in my distress,
and I cried to my God for help.
From His temple He heard my voice,
and my cry to Him reached His ears.

He made darkness His hiding place,
dark storm clouds His canopy around Him.

I was blameless toward Him
and kept myself from sinning.

God—His way is perfect;
the word of the Lord is pure.
He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.

Now I know that the Lord gives victory to His anointed;
He will answer him from His holy heaven
with mighty victories from His right hand.

You have given him his heart’s desire
and have not denied the request of his lips.Selah

For You meet him with rich blessings;
You place a crown of pure gold on his head.

He asked You for life, and You gave it to him—
length of days forever and ever.

His glory is great through Your victory;
You confer majesty and splendor on him.

You give him blessings forever;
You cheer him with joy in Your presence.

“He relies on the Lord;
let Him rescue him;
let the Lord deliver him,
since He takes pleasure in him.”

You who fear Yahweh, praise Him!
All you descendants of Jacob, honor Him!
All you descendants of Israel, revere Him!

For He has not despised or detested
the torment of the afflicted.
He did not hide His face from him
but listened when he cried to Him for help.

The humble will eat and be satisfied;
those who seek the Lord will praise Him.
May your hearts live forever!

All who prosper on earth will eat and bow down;
all those who go down to the dust
will kneel before Him—
even the one who cannot preserve his life.

Their descendants will serve Him;
the next generation will be told about the Lord.

Such is the generation of those who seek Him,
who seek the face of the God of Jacob.Selah

Who is the man who fears the Lord?
He will show him the way he should choose.

The secret counsel of the Lord
is for those who fear Him,
and He reveals His covenant to them.

I have asked one thing from the Lord;
it is what I desire:
to dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life,
gazing on the beauty of the Lord
and seeking Him in His temple.

The Lord is my strength and my shield;
my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped.
Therefore my heart rejoices,
and I praise Him with my song.

Therefore let everyone who is faithful pray to You
at a time that You may be found.
When great floodwaters come,
they will not reach him.

Many pains come to the wicked,
but the one who trusts in the Lord
will have faithful love surrounding him.

Praise the Lord with the lyre;
make music to Him with a ten-stringed harp.

Sing a new song to Him;
play skillfully on the strings, with a joyful shout.

Let the whole earth tremble before the Lord;
let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.

Now the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him—
those who depend on His faithful love

For our hearts rejoice in Him
because we trust in His holy name.

Those who look to Him are radiant with joy;
their faces will never be ashamed.

This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him
and saved him from all his troubles.

The Angel of the Lord encamps
around those who fear Him, and rescues them.

Taste and see that the Lord is good.
How happy is the man who takes refuge in Him!

You who are His holy ones, fear Yahweh,
for those who fear Him lack nothing.

Many adversities come to the one who is righteous,
but the Lord delivers him from them all.

The Lord redeems the life of His servants,
and all who take refuge in Him will not be punished.

Let ruin come on him unexpectedly,
and let the net that he hid ensnare him;
let him fall into it—to his ruin.

My very bones will say,
“Lord, who is like You,
rescuing the poor from one too strong for him,
the poor or the needy from one who robs him?”

Do not let them say in their hearts,
“Aha! Just what we wanted.”
Do not let them say,
“We have swallowed him up!”

Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in Him, and He will act,

Be silent before the Lord and wait expectantly for Him;
do not be agitated by one who prospers in his way,
by the man who carries out evil plans.

A little while, and the wicked person will be no more;
though you look for him, he will not be there.

The wicked person schemes against the righteous
and gnashes his teeth at him.

The Lord laughs at him
because He sees that his day is coming.

Those who are blessed by Him will inherit the land,
but those cursed by Him will be destroyed.

The wicked one lies in wait for the righteous
and seeks to kill him;

the Lord will not leave him
in the power of the wicked one
or allow him to be condemned when he is judged.

Then I passed by and noticed he was gone;
I searched for him, but he could not be found.

The Lord helps and delivers them;
He will deliver them from the wicked and will save them
because they take refuge in Him.

You discipline a man with punishment for sin,
consuming like a moth what is precious to him;
every man is only a vapor.Selah

For the choir director. A Davidic psalm.Happy is one who cares for the poor;
the Lord will save him in a day of adversity.

The Lord will keep him and preserve him;
he will be blessed in the land.
You will not give him over to the desire of his enemies.

The Lord will sustain him on his sickbed;
You will heal him on the bed where he lies.

“Lethal poison has been poured into him,
and he won’t rise again from where he lies!”

Why am I so depressed?
Why this turmoil within me?
Put your hope in God, for I will still praise Him,
my Savior and my God.

Why am I so depressed?
Why this turmoil within me?
Put your hope in God, for I will still praise Him,
my Savior and my God.

Why am I so depressed?
Why this turmoil within me?
Put your hope in God, for I will still praise Him,
my Savior and my God.

and the king will desire your beauty.
Bow down to him, for he is your lord.

since the price of redeeming him is too costly,
one should forever stop trying—

For when he dies, he will take nothing at all;
his wealth will not follow him down.

Our God is coming; He will not be silent!
Devouring fire precedes Him,
and a storm rages around Him.

When you see a thief,
you make friends with him,
and you associate with adulterers.

Whoever sacrifices a thank offering honors Me,
and whoever orders his conduct,
I will show him the salvation of God.”

The righteous will look on with awe
and will ridicule him:

Now it is not an enemy who insults me—
otherwise I could bear it;
it is not a foe who rises up against me—
otherwise I could hide from him.

My friend acts violently
against those at peace with him;
he violates his covenant.

May he sit enthroned before God forever;
appoint faithful love and truth to guard him.

For the choir director: according to Jeduthun. A Davidic psalm.I am at rest in God alone;
my salvation comes from Him.

They only plan to bring him down
from his high position.
They take pleasure in lying;
they bless with their mouths,
but they curse inwardly.Selah

Rest in God alone, my soul,
for my hope comes from Him.

Trust in Him at all times, you people;
pour out your hearts before Him.
God is our refuge.Selah

But the king will rejoice in God;
all who swear by Him will boast,
for the mouths of liars will be shut.

shooting from concealed places at the innocent.
They shoot at him suddenly and are not afraid.

The righteous one rejoices in the Lord
and takes refuge in Him;
all those who are upright in heart
will offer praise.

He turned the sea into dry land,
and they crossed the river on foot.
There we rejoiced in Him.

I cried out to Him with my mouth,
and praise was on my tongue.

God will bless us,
and all the ends of the earth will fear Him.

For the choir director. A Davidic psalm. A song.God arises. His enemies scatter,
and those who hate Him flee from His presence.

Sing to God! Sing praises to His name.
Exalt Him who rides on the clouds —
His name is Yahweh—and rejoice before Him.

to Him who rides in the ancient, highest heavens.
Look, He thunders with His powerful voice!

I will praise God’s name with song
and exalt Him with thanksgiving.

Let heaven and earth praise Him,
the seas and everything that moves in them,

saying, “God has abandoned him;
chase him and catch him,
for there is no one to rescue him.”

May desert tribes kneel before him
and his enemies lick the dust.

Let all kings bow down to him,
all nations serve him.

May he live long!
May gold from Sheba be given to him.
May prayer be offered for him continually,
and may he be blessed all day long.

May his name endure forever;
as long as the sun shines,
may his fame increase.
May all nations be blessed by him
and call him blessed.

You crushed the heads of Leviathan;
You fed him to the creatures of the desert.

As for me, I will tell about Him forever;
I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.

Make and keep your vows
to the Lord your God;
let all who are around Him bring tribute
to the awe-inspiring One.

But they continued to sin against Him,
rebelling in the desert against the Most High.
