Sunk have nations in a pit they made, In a net that they hid hath their foot been captured.

Now I have known That Jehovah hath saved His anointed, He answereth him from His holy heavens, With the saving might of His right hand.

Be Thou exalted, O Jehovah in, Thy strength, We sing and we praise Thy might!

They come and declare His righteousness, To a people that is borne, that He hath made!

Blessed is Jehovah, For He hath made marvellous His kindness To me in a city of bulwarks.

By the word of Jehovah The heavens have been made, And by the breath of His mouth all their host.

Jehovah made void the counsel of nations, He disallowed the thoughts of the peoples.

And draw out spear and lance, To meet my pursuers. Say to my soul, 'Thy salvation I am.'

Meet him doth desolation -- he knoweth not, And his net that he hid catcheth him, For desolation he falleth into it.

For he made it smooth to himself in his eyes, To find his iniquity to be hated.

Let not a foot of pride meet me, And a hand of the wicked let not move me.

Lo, handbreadths Thou hast made my days, And mine age is as nothing before Thee, Only, all vanity is every man set up. Selah.

And He doth cause me to come up From a pit of desolation -- from mire of mud, And He raiseth up on a rock my feet, He is establishing my steps.

O the happiness of the man Who hath made Jehovah his trust, And hath not turned unto the proud, And those turning aside to lies.

Even mine ally, in whom I trusted, One eating my bread, made great the heel against me,

All this met us, and we did not forget Thee, Nor have we dealt falsely in Thy covenant.

Myrrh and aloes, cassia! all thy garments, Out of palaces of ivory Stringed instruments have made thee glad.

For, lo, the kings met, they passed by together,

To the Overseer with stringed instruments. -- An instruction, by David, in the coming in of the Ziphim, and they say to Saul, 'Is not David hiding himself with us?' O God, by Thy name save me, and by Thy might judge me.

Without punishment they run and prepare themselves, Stir up to meet me, and see.

Matters of iniquities were mightier than I, Our transgressions -- Thou dost cover them.

Establishing mountains by His power, He hath been girded with might,

Ruling by His might to the age, His eyes among the nations do watch, The refractory exalt not themselves. Selah.

Fearful, O God, out of Thy sanctuaries, The God of Israel Himself, Giving strength and might to the people. Blessed is God!

I come in the might of the Lord Jehovah, I mention Thy righteousness -- Thine only.

And also unto old age and grey hairs, O God, forsake me not, Till I declare Thy strength to a generation, To every one that cometh Thy might.

And their might is firm.

Spoiled themselves have the mighty of heart, They have slept their sleep, And none of the men of might found their hands.

Thou art the God doing wonders. Thou hast made known among the peoples Thy strength,

A Psalm of Asaph. O God, nations have come into Thy inheritance, They have defiled Thy holy temple, They made Jerusalem become heaps,

For one hath devoured Jacob, And his habitation they have made desolate.

Before Ephraim, and Benjamin, and Manasseh, Wake up Thy might, and come for our salvation.

Kindness and truth have met, Righteousness and peace have kissed,

All nations that Thou hast made Come and bow themselves before Thee, O Lord, And give honour to Thy name.

Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me, Thou hast made me an abomination to them, Shut up -- I go not forth.

I have made a covenant for My chosen, I have sworn to David My servant:

Thou hast an arm with might, Strong is Thy hand -- high Thy right hand.

Thou hast broken down all his hedges, Thou hast made his fenced places a ruin.

Days of our years, in them are seventy years, And if, by reason of might, eighty years, Yet is their enlargement labour and vanity, For it hath been cut off hastily, and we fly away.

Whose is the sea, and He made it, And His hands formed the dry land.

For all the gods of the peoples are nought, And Jehovah made the heavens.

Jehovah hath made known His salvation, Before the eyes of the nations, He hath revealed His righteousness,

Know that Jehovah He is God, He made us, and we are His, His people -- and the flock of His pasture.

All the day mine enemies reproached me, Those mad at me have sworn against me.

He made the moon for seasons, The sun hath known his place of entrance.

How many have been Thy works, O Jehovah, All of them in wisdom Thou hast made, Full is the earth of thy possessions.

That He hath made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,

He hath made him lord of his house, And ruler over all his possessions.

And He maketh His people very fruitful, And maketh it mightier than its adversaries.

He hath made their showers hail, A flaming fire is in their land.

And He saveth them for His name's sake, To make known His might,

A memorial He hath made of His wonders, Gracious and merciful is Jehovah.

They are sustained for ever to the age. They are made in truth and uprightness.

This is the day Jehovah hath made, We rejoice and are glad in it.

Waw. And meet me doth Thy kindness, O Jehovah, Thy salvation according to Thy saying.

I have made haste, And delayed not, to keep Thy commands.

Good for me that I have been afflicted, That I might learn Thy statutes.

Yod. Thy hands made me and establish me, Cause me to understand, and I learn Thy commands.

Meet me do Thy mercies, and I live, For Thy law is my delight.

Time for Jehovah to work! they have made void Thy law.

Lo, as eyes of men-servants Are unto the hand of their masters, As eyes of a maid-servant Are unto the hand of her mistress, So are our eyes unto Jehovah our God, Till that He doth favour us.

Over my back have ploughers ploughed, They have made long their furrows.

Causing vapours to ascend from the end of the earth, Lightnings for the rain He hath made, Bringing forth wind from His treasures.

I bow myself toward Thy holy temple, And I confess Thy name, For Thy kindness, and for Thy truth, For Thou hast made great Thy saying above all Thy name.

My substance was not hid from Thee, When I was made in secret, Curiously wrought in the lower part of earth.

The honour of Thy kingdom they tell, And of Thy might they speak,

Not in the might of the horse doth He delight, Not in the legs of a man is He pleased.
