Many ones there be that say of my soul, "There is no help for him in his God." Selah.

There be many that say, "Who will show us any good? LORD lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us."

Wherefore should the wicked blaspheme God, while he doth say in his heart, "Tush, thou God careth not for it?"

{To the Chanter, a Psalm of David} In the LORD put I my trust: how say ye then to my soul, that she should flee as a bird unto the hill?

lest mine enemy say, "I have prevailed against him." For if I be cast down, they that trouble me will rejoice at it.

From the men of thy hand, O LORD, from the men, I say, and from the evil world, which have their portion in this life, whose bellies thou fillest with thy hid treasure.

Bring forth the spear, and stop the way against them that pursue me; say unto my soul, "I am thy salvation."

All my bones shall say, "LORD, who is like unto thee, who deliverest the poor from him that is too strong for him? Yea, the poor, and him that is in misery, from him that spoileth him?"

Let them not say in their hearts, "There! There! So would we have it!" Neither let them say, "We have devoured him."

Let them be glad and rejoice, that favour my righteous dealing; yea, let them say always, "Blessed be the LORD, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant."

Let them be desolate, and rewarded with shame, that say unto me, "There! There!"

But let all those that seek thee, be joyful and glad in thee; and let such as love thy salvation, say always, "The LORD be praised!"

My tears have been my meat day and night, while they daily say unto me, "Where is now thy God?"

I will say unto God my strength, "Why hast thou forgotten me? Why go I thus heavily, while the enemy oppresseth me?"

{To the Chanter, upon Mahalath, an instruction of David} The foolish bodies say in their hearts, "Tush, there is no God." Corrupt are they, and become abominable in their wickednesses, there is not one that doeth good.

So that men shall say, "Verily there is a reward for the righteous! Doubtless, there is a God that judgeth the earth!"

They have devised mischief, and communed among themselves how they may lay snares. "Tush," say they, "Who shall see them?"

And all men that see it shall say, "This hath God done!" For they shall perceive that it is his work.

Say unto God, "O how wonderful are thy works? Through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies be found liars unto thee.

But let all those that seek thee be joyful and glad in thee, and let all such as delight in thy salvation say always, "The LORD be praised."

"Tush," say they, "How should God perceive it? Is there knowledge in the most high?"

Yea, they say in their hearts, "Let us make havoc of them all together." Thus have they burnt up all the houses of God in the land.

Wherefore shall the heathen say, "Where is now their God?" O let the vengeance of thy servant's blood that is shed, be openly showed upon the heathen in our sight.

"Come," say they, "let us root them out, that they be no more a people, and that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance."

who say, "We will have the houses of God in possession."

I will hearken what the LORD God will say concerning me; for he shall speak peace unto his people, and to his saints, that they turn not themselves unto foolishness.

I will say unto the LORD, "O my hope, and my stronghold; my God, in whom I will trust."

And yet they say, "Tush, the LORD seeth not, the God of Jacob regardeth it not."

Yet will I say, "O my God, take me not away in the midst of my age; as for thy years, they endure throughout all generations."

Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and world without end. And let all people say, "Amen, Amen." Praise the everlasting! Hallelujah!

Wherefore shall the Heathen say, "Where is now their God?"

They kept me in, I say, on every side; but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.

{A song of the stairs} If the LORD himself had not been on our side - now may Israel say -

{A song of the stairs} Many a time have they fought against me from my youth up, may Israel now say.

So that they which go by, say not so much as, "the LORD prosper you, we wish you good luck in the name of the LORD."

My soul fleeth unto the LORD before the morning watch, I say, before the morning watch.

If I say, "Peradventure the darkness shall cover me, then shall my night be turned to day." -

Therefore do I cry unto thee, O LORD, and say, "Thou art my hope and my portion in the land of the living!"
