For the Lord knows the way of the righteous,
But the way of the wicked will perish.

But You, O Lord, are a shield about me,
My glory, and the One who lifts my head.

And my soul is greatly dismayed;
But You, O Lord—how long?

And those who know Your name will put their trust in You,
For You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.

You, O Lord, will keep them;
You will preserve him from this generation forever.

For the choir director. A Psalm of David the servant of the Lord, who spoke to the Lord the words of this song in the day that the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. And he said,
“I love You, O Lord, my strength.”

But You, O Lord, be not far off;
O You my help, hasten to my assistance.

You who fear the Lord, praise Him;
All you descendants of Jacob, glorify Him,
And stand in awe of Him, all you descendants of Israel.

A Psalm of David.
To You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.

Teach me Your way, O Lord,
And lead me in a level path
Because of my foes.

A Psalm of David.
To You, O Lord, I call;
My rock, do not be deaf to me,
For if You are silent to me,
I will become like those who go down to the pit.

A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House. A Psalm of David.

And to the Lord I made supplication:

For the choir director. A Psalm of David.
In You, O Lord, I have taken refuge;
Let me never be ashamed;
In Your righteousness deliver me.

But as for me, I trust in You, O Lord,
I say, “You are my God.”

Let all the earth fear the Lord;
Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.

Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him,
On those who hope for His lovingkindness,

For I hope in You, O Lord;
You will answer, O Lord my God.

You, O Lord, will not withhold Your compassion from me;
Your lovingkindness and Your truth will continually preserve me.

But You, O Lord, be gracious to me and raise me up,
That I may repay them.

For the choir director. A Maskil of the sons of Korah.
As the deer pants for the water brooks,
So my soul pants for You, O God.

Then I will go to the altar of God,
To God my exceeding joy;
And upon the lyre I shall praise You, O God, my God.

This is the way of those who are foolish,
And of those after them who approve their words. Selah.

But You, O God, will bring them down to the pit of destruction;
Men of bloodshed and deceit will not live out half their days.
But I will trust in You.

I will give thanks to You, O Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing praises to You among the nations.

You, O Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel,
Awake to punish all the nations;
Do not be gracious to any who are treacherous in iniquity. Selah.

But You, O Lord, laugh at them;
You scoff at all the nations.

When I remember You on my bed,
I meditate on You in the night watches,

They who dwell in the ends of the earth stand in awe of Your signs;
You make the dawn and the sunset shout for joy.

Let the peoples praise You, O God;
Let all the peoples praise You.

Let the peoples praise You, O God;
Let all the peoples praise You.

But as for me, my prayer is to You, O Lord, at an acceptable time;
O God, in the greatness of Your lovingkindness,
Answer me with Your saving truth.

In You, O Lord, I have taken refuge;
Let me never be ashamed.

For the choir director; set to Al-tashheth. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song.
We give thanks to You, O God, we give thanks,
For Your name is near;
Men declare Your wondrous works.

Your way, O God, is holy;
What god is great like our God?

The waters saw You, O God;
The waters saw You, they were in anguish;
The deeps also trembled.

And return to our neighbors sevenfold into their bosom
The reproach with which they have reproached You, O Lord.

“Hear, O My people, and I will admonish you;
O Israel, if you would listen to Me!

Make glad the soul of Your servant,
For to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.

All nations whom You have made shall come and worship before You, O Lord,
And they shall glorify Your name.

Teach me Your way, O Lord;
I will walk in Your truth;
Unite my heart to fear Your name.

I will give thanks to You, O Lord my God, with all my heart,
And will glorify Your name forever.

But You, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious,
Slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness and truth.

Show me a sign for good,
That those who hate me may see it and be ashamed,
Because You, O Lord, have helped me and comforted me.

Glorious things are spoken of you,
O city of God. Selah.

But I, O Lord, have cried out to You for help,
And in the morning my prayer comes before You.

O Lord God of hosts, who is like You, O mighty Lord?
Your faithfulness also surrounds You.

For You, O Lord, have made me glad by what You have done,
I will sing for joy at the works of Your hands.

But You, O Lord, are on high forever.

A Psalm of David.
I will sing of lovingkindness and justice,
To You, O Lord, I will sing praises.

But You, O Lord, abide forever,
And Your name to all generations.

I will give thanks to You, O Lord, among the peoples,
And I will sing praises to You among the nations.

But You, O God, the Lord, deal kindly with me for Your name’s sake;
Because Your lovingkindness is good, deliver me;

What ails you, O sea, that you flee?
O Jordan, that you turn back?

In the courts of the Lord’s house,
In the midst of you, O Jerusalem.
Praise the Lord!

O Lord, do save, we beseech You;
O Lord, we beseech You, do send prosperity!

Blessed are You, O Lord;
Teach me Your statutes.

I have rejoiced in the way of Your testimonies,
As much as in all riches.

Make me understand the way of Your precepts,
So I will meditate on Your wonders.

I shall run the way of Your commandments,
For You will enlarge my heart.

And I shall observe it to the end.

If I forget you, O Jerusalem,
May my right hand forget her skill.

All the kings of the earth will give thanks to You, O Lord,
When they have heard the words of Your mouth.

Do I not hate those who hate You, O Lord?
And do I not loathe those who rise up against You?

For my eyes are toward You, O God, the Lord;
In You I take refuge; do not leave me defenseless.

I cried out to You, O Lord;
I said, “You are my refuge,
My portion in the land of the living.

I will sing a new song to You, O God;
Upon a harp of ten strings I will sing praises to You,

All Your works shall give thanks to You, O Lord,
And Your godly ones shall bless You.

The Lord protects the strangers;
He supports the fatherless and the widow,
But He thwarts the way of the wicked.
