Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,

Then he whose seat is in the heavens will be laughing: the Lord will make sport of them.

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

I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.

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

Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness; Thou hast set me at large when I was in distress: Have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.

Jehovah, at morning Thou hearest my voice, At morning I set in array for Thee, And I look out.

The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

Let the assembly of peoples gather around You;
take Your seat on high over it.

That man is a worker of evil; the seed of wrongdoing has given birth to deceit.

{To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David.} O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.

When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, [the] moon and [the] stars which you set in place--

What was weak man, that thou shouldst make mention of him? or the son of the earthborn, that thou shouldst set him in charge?

Yahweh, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! For the Chief Musician. Set to "The Death of the Son." A Psalm by David.

For Thou hast done my judgment and my right. Thou hast sat on a throne, A judge of righteousness.

You have said sharp words to the nations, you have sent destruction on the sinners, you have put an end to their name for ever and ever.

But the Lord is King for ever: he has made ready his high seat for judging.

The nations have sunk down into the pit they made, their feet are ensnared in the trap they set.

Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight.

His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.

He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity.

He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor.

He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it.

Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.

For, behold, the wicked bend their bows. They set their arrows on the strings, that they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.

The Lord is in his holy Temple, the Lord's seat is in heaven; his eyes are watching and testing the children of men.

Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?

For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him.

The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.

Till when do I set counsels in my soul? Sorrow in my heart daily? Till when is mine enemy exalted over me?

{To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.} The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

LORD, who may stay in your tent? Who may dwell on your holy mountain?

Despised in his sight, is the reprobate, but, them who revere Yahweh, he doth honour, he hath sworn to his neighbour, and will not change;

O my soul, thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;

To the saints that are on the earth, and to the excellent thou hast said, In them is all my delight.

I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

Set out Your wonderful loving-kindness, O Savior of those seeking refuge in You, by Your right hand, from those who rise up against me.

They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;

As for me, I shall see Your face in righteousness;
I will be [fully] satisfied when I awake [to find myself] seeing Your likeness.

{To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, the servant of the LORD, who spake unto 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 will love thee, O LORD, my strength.

Smoke rose from His nostrils,
and consuming fire came from His mouth;
coals were set ablaze by it.

He will set darkness his covering; his tent round about him darknesses of waters, thick clouds.

At the brightness of his presence, his clouds removed hailstones and coals of fire. {TYNDALE: Of the brightness that was before him, coals were set on fire.}

They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was my stay.

For I have an eye unto all his laws, and will not cast out his commandments from me. {TYNDALE: But I had all his laws in my sight, and I turned my face from none of his ordinances.}

And Jehovah hath recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight.

The GOD who girded me with strength, and set forth, as blameless, my way:

You rescued me from strife with people; you set me as head (over) nations. People I did not know served me;

Who hath delivered me from my foes, - Yea, from mine assailants, hast thou set me on high, From the man of violence, hast thou rescued me.

Great deliverance giveth he to his king; and sheweth mercy to his anointed, to David, and to his seed for evermore.

Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

The law of the Lord is perfect and preserves one's life. The rules set down by the Lord are reliable and impart wisdom to the inexperienced.

Being desirable above gold, and above much pure gold, and being sweet above honey, and the dropping of honey-combs.

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.

Jehovah answer thee in the day of trouble; The name of the God of Jacob set thee up on high;

We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the LORD fulfil all thy petitions.

For thou hast met him with the blessings of goodness; thou hast set a crown of pure gold on his head.

Great his glory in thy salvation: majesty and honor thou wilt set upon him.

For you set [on] him blessings forever. You make him glad with [the] joy [of] your presence.

When you appear, you will set them ablaze like a fire furnace. In his wrath, the LORD will consume them, and the fire will devour them.

For thou wilt set them the shoulder among thine being left, thou wilt prepare against their face.

Be exalted, Yahweh, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power. For the Chief Musician; set to "The Doe of the Morning." A Psalm by David.

You are holy; you sit as king receiving the praises of Israel.

They cried to You and were set free;
they trusted in You and were not disgraced.

Many oxen are come about me; fat bulls of Bashan close me in on every side.

The roof of my mouth is as dry as a piece of pottery; my tongue sticks to my gums. You set me in the dust of death.

Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.

My praise is of thee in the great congregation; my vows will I perform in the sight of them that fear him.

A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.

You prepare a feast before me in plain sight of my enemies. You refresh my head with oil; my cup is completely full.

Surely goodness and loyal love will pursue me all the days of my life, and I will stay in the house of Yahweh {for a very long time}.

For he set its foundation upon the seas, and established it upon the ocean currents.

The one who has clean hands and a pure heart,
who has not set his mind on what is false,
and who has not sworn deceitfully.

And He will let them know His covenant and reveal to them [through His word] its [deep, inner] meaning.

I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.

I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.

One thing I have asked of the Lord, and that I will seek:
That I may dwell in the house of the Lord [in His presence] all the days of my life,
To gaze upon the beauty [the delightful loveliness and majestic grandeur] of the Lord
And to meditate in His temple.

For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.

Hear the voice of my humble petitions, when I cry unto thee, when I hold up my hands towards the mercy seat of thy holy temple.

O save thy people, and give thy blessing unto thine inheritance; feed them, and set them up forever.

The voice of Jehovah will cause the hinds to bring forth, and will uncover the forests: and in his temple every one said, Glory.

{A Psalm and song of the dedication of the house of David} I will magnify thee, O LORD; for thou hast set me up, and not suffered my foes to triumph over me.

Bring me out of [the] net that they have secretly set for me, for you [are] my refuge.

I hate such as give heed to false vanities, I, then, in Yahweh, have set my hope.

And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room.

For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.

How great is Your goodness
that You have stored up for those who fear You
and accomplished in the sight of everyone
for those who take refuge in You.

For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.

I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah.

Great plagues remain for the ungodly; but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD, mercy embraceth him on every side.
