Yet, I, have installed my king, - on Zion my holy mountain.

Let me tell of a decree, - Yahweh, hath said unto me, My son, thou art, I, to-day, have begotten thee:

Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and ye perish by the way, for soon might be kindled his anger, - How happy are all who seek refuge in him!

Be deeply moved, but do not sin, - Ponder in your own heart upon your bed, and be silent. Selah.

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

Sing ye praise to Yahweh, who is seated in Zion, Tell among the peoples his doings.

That I may recount all thy praises, In the gates of the daughter of Zion, may exult in thy salvation.

He hath said in his heart, GOD hath forgotten, - He hath veiled his face, Oh he hath never seen!

Thou hast seen! For, thou, mischief and misery, dost discern, to requite with thine own hand, Unto thee, doth, the unfortunate one, give himself up, To the fatherless, thou thyself, hast become a helper.

Oh that, out of Zion, were granted the salvation of Israel! When Yahweh bringeth back the captives of his people, Jacob, shall exult, Israel, be glad.

Yet through all the earth, hath gone forth their voice, - and, to the end of the world, their sayings, - For the sun, hath he set up a tent therein;

Send thy help out of the sanctuary, and, out of Zion, sustain thee;

By reason of all mine adversaries, have I become a reproach. Even to my neighbours, altogether, and a dread to mine acquaintance, - They who have seen me abroad, have fled from me:

How happy is he whose transgression is forgiven! whose sin is pardoned!

How happy the son of earth, to whom Yahweh will not reckon iniquity! and in whose spirit is no guile!

My sin, would I own unto thee, and, mine iniquity, not hide, I said, I will confess my transgressions unto Yahweh, And, thou, didst forgive the iniquity of my sin. Selah.

Out of the heavens, hath Yahweh looked, He hath seen all the sons of men:

Yea they have opened wide against me their mouth, They have said, Aha! Aha! our own eye, hath seen!

Thou hast seen, O Yahweh, do not keep silence! O My Lord! be not far from me:

For, like grass, soon shall they wither, and, like green herbage, shall they fade.

Young, have I been, moreover am old, - Yet have I not seen, A righteous man forsaken, Nor his seed begging bread:

I have seen a lawless man, a tyrant, and spreading himself out, like a cedar in Lebanon;

There is no soundness in my flesh, By reason of thine indignation, There is no peace in my bones, By reason of my sin;

For, mine iniquity, will I declare, I shall be anxious because of my sin;

I said, to myself, I will take heed to my ways, That I sin not with my tongue, - I will put on my mouth a muzzle, So long as the lawless is before me.

Sacrifice and meal-offering, thou didst not delight in, Ears, didst thou pierce for me, - Ascending-sacrifice and sin-bearer, thou didst not ask:

God - for us, is a refuge and strength, A help in distresses, soon found.

Let Mount Zion rejoice, Let the daughters of Judah exult, Because of thy judgments.

Go round Zion, and compass her about, Reckon up her towers;

For it is seen that, the wise, die, Together with the dullard, and the brutish, do they perish, And leave, to others, their wealth:

But, a son of earth, though wealthy, cannot tarry, He hath made himself a by-word - Beasts, they resemble:

A son of earth though wealthy, who discerneth not, Hath made himself a by-word, Beasts, they resemble.

El, Elohim, Yahweh, hath spoken, and culled the earth, From the rising of the sun, unto the going in thereof:

Thou wouldst sit down - Against thine own brother, wouldst thou speak, Against thine own mother's son, wouldst thou expose a fault: -

Thoroughly wash me from mine iniquity, And, from my sin, make me pure;

For, my transgressions, do, I, acknowledge, And, my sin, is before me continually:

Lo! in iniquity, was I brought forth, And, in sin, did my mother conceive me.

Wilt thou cleanse me from sin with hyssop, That I may be pure? Wilt thou wash me, That I may be whiter, than snow?

Do good, in thy good-pleasure, unto Zion, Wilt thou build the walls of Jerusalem!

Oh that, out of Zion, were granted the salvations of Israel! When God bringeth back the captives of his people, Jacob, shall exult, Israel, shall be glad.

Confuse, O My Lord, divide their speech, For I have seen violence and contention in the city;

In God, have I trusted, I will not fear, What can a son of earth do unto me!

Like a snail, which melteth away as it goeth, An untimely birth of a woman, which hath not seen the sun:

The righteous man will rejoice when he hath seen an avenging, His feet, will he bathe in the blood of the lawless one: -

So that a son of earth may say - Surely there is fruit for the righteous man! Surely there are gods who judge in the earth!

For lo! they have lain in wait for my life, Mighty ones stir up strife against me, Without transgression of mine, and without sin of mine, O Yahweh;

The sin of their mouth, The word of their lips, Let them then be captured in their pride, Both for the oath and for the deception they record.

Thine, are silence and praise, O God, in Zion, - And, to thee, shall be paid the vow.

Earth, trembled, Yea, the heavens, dripped at the presence of God, - This Sinai - at the presence of God, the God of Israel.

When the Almighty scattereth kings therein, It will gleam like snow in the gloom:

The chariots of God, are two myriads - thousands repeated, My Lord, is among them Sinai, is in the sanctuary!

They have seen thy progress O God, The progress of my GOD, my king into the sanctuary:

The humbled have seen - they rejoice! Ye seekers of God, let your heart, then, revive;

For, God, will save Zion, And build the cities of Judah, So shall men dwell there, and possess it:

O God! thy justice, give, unto the king, And thy righteousness, unto the son of a king;

Let men revere thee, With the sun, And in presence of the moon, Unto the remotest generation.

May his Name he age-abiding, In the presence of the sun, let his Name flourish, - And may all the families of the ground bless themselves in him, All nations, pronounce him happy!

Ended are the prayers of David, son of Jesse.

Remember thine own assembly thou didst acquire aforetime, Thou didst redeem the tribe of thine own inheritance, Mount Zion, wherein thou didst take up thy habitation.

Our own signs, have we not seen, - There is no longer a prophet, - Neither is there with us, one who knoweth - How long!

Thine, is the day, Yea, thine, the night, Thou, didst establish moon and sun;

Now hath come into Salem, his pavilion, And his dwelling-place into Zion.

In presence of their fathers, wrought he, wondrously, - In the land of Egypt - the field of Zoan:

When he set, in Egypt, his signs, And his wonders, in the plain of Zoan;

But made choice of the tribe of Judah, The mountain of Zion, which he loved;

Yea the stock which thy right hand planted, Even upon the son thou didst secure for thyself.

Let thy hand be, Upon the Man of thy right hand, Upon the Son of Man thou didst secure for thyself;

Right soon, their foes, would I subdue, And, against their adversaries, would I turn my hand:

They go from strength to strength, Each one appeareth before God in Zion.

For, a sun and shield, is Yahweh God, - Grace and glory, will Yahweh give, He will not withhold what is good, from them who walk without blame.

Thou hast taken away, the iniquity of thy people, Thou hast covered, all their sin. Selah.

Turn thou unto me, and show me favour, - Give thy strength to thy servant, And save the son of thy handmaid.

Yahweh loveth the gates of Zion, More than all the dwellings of Jacob.

But, of Zion, it shall be said - This man and that were born in her, And the Highest himself shall establish her.

No foe shall make exactions on him, Nor shall, a son of perversity, humiliate him;

His seed, age-abidingly, shall remain, And, his throne, be like the sun before me;

Make us glad, according to, The days thou hast humbled us, The years we have seen misfortune:

If, Yahweh, had not been a help to me, Soon had sunk into silence - my soul!

His lightnings, have illumined, the world, The earth, hath seen, and hath trembled;

The heavens, have declared, his righteousness, - And all the peoples, have seen, his glory.

Zion, hath heard and rejoiced, And the daughters of Judah, have exulted, Because of thy righteous decisions, O Yahweh:

Light, is sown for the righteous one, And, for the upright in heart, rejoicing:

He hath remembered his lovingkindness and his faithfulness towards the house of Israel, - All the ends of the earth, have seen, the salvation of our God.

Yahweh, in Zion, is great, And, high, is he over all the peoples.

Thou, wilt arise, wilt have compassion upon Zion, Surely it is time to favour her, Surely the time appointed, hath come;

When Yahweh, hath built up, Zion, Hath appeared in his glory;

To the end the Name of Yahweh, might be celebrated in Zion, And his praise in Jerusalem:

He hath made the moon for seasons, And, the sun, knoweth his place for entering in.

The sun ariseth, they withdraw themselves, And, in their lairs, lay them down.

He suffered no son of earth to oppress them, And reproved - for their sakes - even kings!

Soon forgat they his works, - They waited not for his counsel;

And have sown fields, and planted vineyards, and made them fruits of increase:

When he is judged, let him go out condemned, and let, his own petition, become a sin;

Remembered be the iniquity of his fathers against Yahweh, and, the sin of his mother, let it not be wiped out;

Thy sceptre of strength, will Yahweh extend out of Zion, Tread thou down, in the midst of thy foes.

From the rising of the sun unto the going in thereof, Worthy to be praised, is the Name of Yahweh:

I beseech thee, O Yahweh - for, I, am thy servant, - I, am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid, Thou hast loosened my bonds.

In my heart, have I treasured what thou hast said, to the end I may not sin against thee.

[ZAYIN] Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to hope.

To all perfection, have I seen an end, Broad is thy commandment, exceedingly.
