The kings of the earth take their stand,
and the rulers conspire together
against the Lord and His Anointed One:

I am not afraid of the thousands of people
who have taken their stand against me on every side.

The boastful cannot stand in Your presence;
You hate all evildoers.

Lord, why do You stand so far away?
Why do You hide in times of trouble?

They collapse and fall,
but we rise and stand firm.

Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord?
Who may stand in His holy place?

Lord, when You showed Your favor,
You made me stand like a strong mountain;
when You hid Your face, I was terrified.

Let the whole earth tremble before the Lord;
let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.

My loved ones and friends stand back from my affliction,
and my relatives stand at a distance.

And You—You are to be feared.
When You are angry,
who can stand before You?

You have also turned back his sharp sword
and have not let him stand in battle.

Who stands up for me against the wicked?
Who takes a stand for me against evildoers?

Set a wicked person over him;
let an accuser stand at his right hand.

They stand today in accordance with Your judgments,
for all things are Your servants.

Yahweh, if You considered sins,
Lord, who could stand?

A song of ascents.Now praise the Lord,
all you servants of the Lord
who stand in the Lord’s house at night!

who stand in the house of Yahweh,
in the courts of the house of our God.

You know when I sit down and when I stand up;
You understand my thoughts from far away.
