Salvation belongs to Yahweh. Your blessing be on your people. Selah. For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm by David.

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

Yahweh brings the counsel of the nations to nothing. He makes the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.

Let your loving kindness be on us, Yahweh, since we have hoped in you. By David; when he pretended to be insane before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed.

Let your hand be on the man of your right hand, on the son of man whom you made strong for yourself.

Let the favor of the Lord our God be on us; establish the work of our hands for us; yes, establish the work of our hands.

My eyes will be on the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he will serve me.

But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, Yahweh will lead them away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be on Israel. A Song of Ascents.

Neither do those who go by say, "The blessing of Yahweh be on you. We bless you in the name of Yahweh." A Song of Ascents.
