For this reason the wicked cannot withstand judgment, nor can sinners join the assembly of the godly.

And know ye that Jehovah separated the kind one to himself: Jehovah will hear in my calling to him.

For you [are] not a God [who] desires wickedness. Evil cannot dwell with you.

The boastful cannot stand in Your presence;
You hate all evildoers.

With the kind Thou showest Thyself kind, With a perfect man showest Thyself perfect.

I crush them, and they cannot get up;
they fall beneath my feet.

For they intended evil against you. They plotted evil against you which cannot succeed.

I may count all my bones; They look and stare upon me.

All the fat ones of the earth shall eat and worship: All they that go down to the dust shall bow before him, Even he that cannot keep his soul alive.

The Lord is both kind and fair; that is why he teaches sinners the right way to live.

It is vain to trust in a horse for deliverance, even with its great strength, it cannot deliver.

There the evildoers fall;
they have been thrown down and cannot rise.

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

Thus have I become as a man who cannot hear, in whose mouth are no arguments:

Yea every man walketh as it were a shadow, and disquieteth himself in vain: he heapeth up riches, and cannot tell who shall gather them.

I am dumb, I cannot open my mouth, for, thou, hast done it.

Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I cannot see; they are more than the hairs of my head: and my heart hath failed me.

I cannot eat, I weep day and night; all day long they say to me, "Where is your God?"

For I do not trust my bow, and my sword cannot give me victory.

God lives within it, it cannot be moved. God rescues it at the break of dawn.

Walk about Zion, and go round about her: count the towers thereof;

Surely a man cannot redeem a brother. He cannot give to God his ransom

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

I will thank You forever, because You have done it, [You have rescued me and kept me safe].
I will wait on Your name, for it is good, in the presence of Your godly ones.

You have kept count of my wonderings. Put my tears in your bottle; [are they] not in your book?

They devise unjust schemes; they disguise a well-conceived plot. Man's inner thoughts cannot be discovered.

Let their eyes be darkened, so that they cannot see; And make their loins continually to shake.

My mouth will tell about Your righteousness
and Your salvation all day long,
though I cannot sum them up.

[The] stouthearted are plundered; they sleep their sleep, and all [the] able men cannot {use} their hands.

Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

Will the Lord put me away for ever? will he be kind no longer?

Your way was through the sea, and your path through mighty waters, but your footprints cannot be traced.

How long, O Lord? Will You be angry forever?
Will Your jealousy [which cannot endure a divided allegiance] burn like fire?

For You, Lord, are kind and ready to forgive,
rich in faithful love to all who call on You.

The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. Selah.

Thou hast put away mine acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.

An instruction, by Ethan the Ezrahite. Of the kind acts of Jehovah, to the age I sing, To all generations I make known Thy faithfulness with my mouth,

“Once [for all] I have sworn by My holiness, [My vow which cannot be violated];
I will not lie to David.

[The] brutish man does not know, and [the] fool cannot understand this.

The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.

They say, "The LORD cannot see, and the God of Jacob will not notice."

Say among the nations, Jehovah reigneth: The world also is established that it cannot be moved: He will judge the peoples with equity.

Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, him I will silence;
The one who has a haughty look and a proud (arrogant) heart I will not tolerate.

Praise the Lord, O my soul! Do not forget all his kind deeds!

The Lord is kind and full of pity, not quickly made angry, but ever ready to have mercy.

You set a boundary they cannot cross;
they will never cover the earth again.

Our fathers in Egypt, Have not considered wisely Thy wonders, They have not remembered The abundance of Thy kind acts, And provoke by the sea, at the sea of Suph.

They detested all kinds of food,
And they drew near to the gates of death.

Who is wise, and observeth these? They understand the kind acts of Jehovah!

My knees are unsteady from fasting;
And my flesh is gaunt and without fatness.

All is well for the man who is kind and gives freely to others; he will make good his cause when he is judged.

They have mouths, but cannot speak; they have eyes, but cannot see;

they have ears, but cannot hear; they have noses, but cannot smell;

[they have] their hands, but they cannot feel, their feet, but they cannot walk; they cannot utter a sound in their throats.

The dead, cannot praise Yah, nor any that go down into silence;

(Gimel) Be kind to your servant! Then I will live and keep your instructions.

You are good and do good;
Teach me Your statutes.

You have removed all the wicked of the earth like dross [for they have no value];
Therefore I love Your testimonies.

Therefore I count all Your Commandments concerning all things to be right; I hate every false way.

Direct my footsteps by your promise, and do not let any kind of iniquity rule over me.

{A Song of degrees.} They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.

[with] which a reaper cannot fill his hand, nor the binder of sheaves his {arms},

They have mouths, but cannot speak; they have eyes, but cannot see;

they have ears, but cannot hear; there is not even breath in their mouths.

Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.

I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.

Never grant, LORD, the desires of the wicked; never condone their plans so they cannot exalt themselves. Interlude

Let burning coals fall on them; let them be dropped into the fire, into bottomless pits [from which] they cannot rise.

Teach me to do what pleases you, for you are my God. May your kind presence lead me into a level land.

My kind one, and my bulwark, My tower, and my deliverer, My shield, and in whom I have trusted, Who is subduing my people under me!

Our garners are full, bringing out from kind to kind, Our flocks are bringing forth thousands, Ten thousands in our out-places,

Jehovah is righteous in all his ways, and kind in all his works.

Do not trust in nobles,
in man, who cannot save.

Great is our Lord, and of abounding strength, And, his knowledge, cannot be expressed.

He has also established them forever and ever;
He has made a decree which shall not pass away.
