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

I will tell of the decree. LORD said to me, Thou are my son, this day I have begotten thee.

Ask of me, and I will give [thee] the nations for thine inheritance, and the outermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

LORD, how my adversaries are increased! Many are those who rise up against me.

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

But thou, O LORD, are a shield about me, my glory and he who lifts up of my head.

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

I laid down and slept. I awoke, for LORD sustains me.

I will not be afraid of ten thousands of the people who have set themselves against me round about.

Arise, O LORD. Save me, O my God. For thou have smitten all my enemies upon the cheek bone. Thou have broken the teeth of the wicked.

Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness. Thou have enlarged me in distress. Have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? Will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah.

Thou have put gladness in my heart more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.

In peace I will both lay down and sleep, for thou, LORD, alone make me dwell in safety.

Give ear to my words, O LORD, Consider my meditation.

Hearken to the voice of my cry, my King, and my God, for to thee do I pray.

O LORD, in the morning thou shall hear my voice. In the morning I will direct to thee, and will keep watch.

But as for me, in the abundance of thy loving kindness I will come into thy house. In thy fear I will worship toward thy holy temple.

Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of my enemies. Make thy way straight before my face.

O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, nor chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am withered away. O LORD, heal me, for my bones are troubled.

My soul also is greatly troubled. And thou, O LORD, how long?

Return, O LORD, deliver my soul. Save me for thy loving kindness' sake.

I am weary with my groaning. Every night I make my bed to swim. I water my couch with my tears.

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

Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity, for LORD has heard the voice of my weeping.

LORD has heard my supplication. LORD will receive my prayer.

All my enemies shall be put to shame and greatly troubled. They shall turn back. They shall be put to shame suddenly.

O LORD my God, in thee do I take refuge. Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me,

lest they 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 be iniquity in my hands,

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.

Arise, O LORD, in thine anger. Lift up thyself against the rage of my adversaries, and awake for me the justice thou have commanded.

LORD shall judge the peoples. Judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and to my integrity that is in me.

My shield is with God, who saves the upright in heart.

I will give thanks to LORD with my whole heart. I will show forth all thy marvelous works.

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

For thou have maintained my right and my cause. Thou sit in the throne judging righteously.

Have mercy upon me, O LORD. Behold my affliction from those who hate me, thou who lifts me up from the gates of death

that I may show forth all thy praise. In the gates of the daughter of Zion I will rejoice in thy salvation.

to judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may no more be appalling.

In LORD I take refuge. How will ye say to my soul, Flee [as] a bird to your mountain.

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.

How long, O LORD? Will thou forget me forever? How long will thou hide thy face from me?

How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

Consider [and] answer me, O LORD my God. Lighten my eyes, lest I sleep the death,

lest my enemy say, I have prevailed against him, [lest] my adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

But I have trusted in thy loving kindness. My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.

I will sing to LORD because he has dealt bountifully with me.

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

Preserve me, O God, for in thee do I take refuge.

Thou [my soul] have said to LORD, Thou are my LORD. I have no good beyond thee.

As for the sanctified who are in the earth, they are the excellent in whom is all my delight.

Their sorrows shall be multiplied who give gifts for another [god]. Their drink-offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take their names upon my lips.

LORD is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup. Thou maintain my lot.

The lines are fallen to me in pleasant places. Yea, I have a fine heritage.

I will bless LORD, who has given me counsel. Yea, my heart instructs me in the night seasons.

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

Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices. My flesh also shall dwell in {hope (LXX/NT)}.

For thou will not leave my soul to Sheol, nor will thou allow thy holy man to see corruption.

Thou {made known to (LXX/NT)} me the path of life. {Thou will fill me of joy with thy countenance (LXX/NT)}.

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

Let my justice come forth from thy presence. Let thine eyes look upon equity.

Thou have proved my heart. Thou have visited me in the night. Thou have tried me, and find nothing. I have purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.

My steps have held fast to thy paths. My feet have not slipped.

I have called upon thee, for thou will answer me, O God. Incline thine ear to me, [and] hear my speech.

Keep me as the apple of the eye. Hide me under the shadow of thy wings,

from the wicked who oppress me, my deadly enemies, who encompass me around.

Arise, O LORD, confront him. Cast him down. Deliver my soul from the wicked by thy sword,

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

I love thee, O LORD, my strength.

LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I will take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.

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

The cords of death encompassed me, and the floods of lawlessness made me afraid.

The cords of Sheol were round about me. The snares of death came upon me.

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.

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

He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from those who hated me, for they were too mighty for me.

They came upon me in the day of my calamity, but LORD was my stay.

He also brought me forth into a large place. He delivered me because he delighted in me.

LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness. According to the cleanness of my hands he has recompensed me.

For I have kept the ways of LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.

For all his ordinances were before me, and I put not away his statutes from me.

I was also perfect with him, and I kept myself from my iniquity.

Therefore LORD has recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.

For thou will light my lamp. LORD my God will lighten my darkness.

For by thee I run upon a troop, and by my God I leap over a wall.

the God who girds me with strength, and makes my way perfect?

He makes my feet like hinds' [feet], and sets me upon my high places.

He teaches my hands to war, so that my arms bend a bow of brass.

Thou have also given me the shield of thy salvation, and thy right hand has held me up, and thy gentleness has made me great.

Thou have enlarged my steps under me, and my feet have not slipped.

I will pursue my enemies, and overtake them. Neither will I turn again till they are consumed.

I will smite them through, so that they shall not be able to rise. They shall fall under my feet.

For thou have girded me with strength to the battle. Thou have subdued under me those who rose up against me.

Thou have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me.

Thou have delivered me from the strivings of the people. Thou have made me the head of the nations. A people whom I have not known shall serve me.

As soon as they hear of me they shall obey me. The foreigners shall submit themselves to me.

LORD lives, and blessed be my rock, and exalted be the God of my salvation,
