Therefore the wicked will not survive the judgment,
and sinners will not be in the community of the righteous.

I will declare the Lord’s decree:
He said to Me, “You are My Son;
today I have become Your Father.

Ask of Me,
and I will make the nations Your inheritance
and the ends of the earth Your possession.

You will break them with a rod of iron;
You will shatter them like pottery.”

Pay homage to the Son or He will be angry
and you will perish in your rebellion,
for His anger may ignite at any moment.
All those who take refuge in Him are happy.

How long, exalted men, will my honor be insulted?
How long will you love what is worthless
and pursue a lie?Selah

Know that the Lord has set apart
the faithful for Himself;
the Lord will hear when I call to Him.

I will both lie down and sleep in peace,
for You alone, Lord, make me live in safety.

All my enemies will be ashamed and shake with terror;
they will turn back and suddenly be disgraced.

The wicked will return to Sheol—
all the nations that forget God.

the hope of the afflicted will not perish forever.

He says to himself, “I will never be moved—
from generation to generation without calamity.”

He says to himself, “God has forgotten;
He hides His face and will never see.”

Why has the wicked person despised God?
He says to himself, “You will not demand an account.”

The Lord is King forever and ever;
the nations will perish from His land.

Lord, You have heard the desire of the humble;
You will strengthen their hearts.
You will listen carefully,

He will rain burning coals and sulfur on the wicked;
a scorching wind will be their portion.

For the Lord is righteous; He loves righteous deeds.
The upright will see His face.

“Because of the oppression of the afflicted
and the groaning of the poor,
I will now rise up,” says the Lord.
“I will put the one who longs for it in a safe place.”

You, Lord, will guard us;
You will protect us from this generation forever.

For the choir director. A Davidic psalm.Lord, how long will You forget me?
Forever?
How long will You hide Your face from me?

How long will I store up anxious concerns within me,
agony in my mind every day?
How long will my enemy dominate me?

Consider me and answer, Lord my God.

otherwise, I will sleep in death.

and my foes will rejoice because I am shaken.

But I have trusted in Your faithful love;
my heart will rejoice in Your deliverance.

I will sing to the Lord
because He has treated me generously.

Jacob will rejoice; Israel will be glad.

or take a bribe against the innocent—
the one who does these things will never be moved.

The sorrows of those who take another god
for themselves will multiply;
I will not pour out their drink offerings of blood,
and I will not speak their names with my lips.

I will praise the Lord who counsels me—
even at night my conscience instructs me.

I keep the Lord in mind always.
Because He is at my right hand,
I will not be shaken.

For You will not abandon me to Sheol;
You will not allow Your Faithful One to see decay.

You have tested my heart;
You have examined me at night.
You have tried me and found nothing evil;
I have determined that my mouth will not sin.

I call on You, God,
because You will answer me;
listen closely to me; hear what I say.

But I will see Your face in righteousness;
when I awake, I will be satisfied with Your presence.

Therefore I will praise You, Yahweh, among the nations;
I will sing about Your name.

Moreover, keep Your servant from willful sins;
do not let them rule over me.
Then I will be innocent
and cleansed from blatant rebellion.

Now I know that the Lord gives victory to His anointed;
He will answer him from His holy heaven
with mighty victories from His right hand.

Your hand will capture all your enemies;
your right hand will seize those who hate you.

like a fiery furnace when you appear;
the Lord will engulf them in His wrath,
and fire will devour them.

You will wipe their descendants from the earth
and their offspring from the human race.

Though they intend to harm you
and devise a wicked plan, they will not prevail.

Instead, you will put them to flight
when you aim your bow at their faces.

Be exalted, Lord, in Your strength;
we will sing and praise Your might.

Save me from the mouth of the lion!
You have rescued me
from the horns of the wild oxen.

I will proclaim Your name to my brothers;
I will praise You in the congregation.

I will give praise in the great congregation
because of You;
I will fulfill my vows
before those who fear You.

The humble will eat and be satisfied;
those who seek the Lord will praise Him.
May your hearts live forever!

All the ends of the earth will remember
and turn to the Lord.
All the families of the nations
will bow down before You,

All who prosper on earth will eat and bow down;
all those who go down to the dust
will kneel before Him—
even the one who cannot preserve his life.

Their descendants will serve Him;
the next generation will be told about the Lord.

They will come and tell a people yet to be born
about His righteousness—
what He has done.

Only goodness and faithful love will pursue me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
as long as I live.

and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

Rise up, ancient doors!
Then the King of glory will come in.

will be disgraced.

He will show him the way he should choose.

for He will pull my feet out of the net.

My foot stands on level ground;
I will praise the Lord in the assemblies.

in the day of adversity;
He will hide me under the cover of His tent;
He will set me high on a rock.

Then my head will be high
above my enemies around me;
I will offer sacrifices in His tent with shouts of joy.
I will sing and make music to the Lord.

My heart says this about You,
“You are to seek My face.”
Lord, I will seek Your face.

Do not give me over to the will of my foes,
for false witnesses rise up against me,
breathing violence.

I am certain that I will see the Lord’s goodness
in the land of the living.

Davidic.Lord, I call to You;
my rock, do not be deaf to me.
If You remain silent to me,
I will be like those going down to the Pit.

Because they do not consider
what the Lord has done
or the work of His hands,
He will tear them down and not rebuild them.

He makes Lebanon skip like a calf,
and Sirion, like a young wild ox.

A psalm; a dedication song for the house. Davidic.I will exalt You, Lord,
because You have lifted me up
and have not allowed my enemies
to triumph over me.

When I was secure, I said,
“I will never be shaken.”

“What gain is there in my death,
if I go down to the Pit?
Will the dust praise You?
Will it proclaim Your truth?

so that I can sing to You and not be silent.
Lord my God, I will praise You forever.

You will free me from the net
that is secretly set for me,
for You are my refuge.

I will rejoice and be glad in Your faithful love
because You have seen my affliction.
You have known the troubles of my life

Then I acknowledged my sin to You
and did not conceal my iniquity.
I said,
“I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,”
and You took away the guilt of my sin.Selah

Therefore let everyone who is faithful pray to You
at a time that You may be found.
When great floodwaters come,
they will not reach him.

I will instruct you and show you the way to go;
with My eye on you, I will give counsel.

Do not be like a horse or mule,
without understanding,
that must be controlled with bit and bridle
or else it will not come near you.

Many pains come to the wicked,
but the one who trusts in the Lord
will have faithful love surrounding him.

A king is not saved by a large army;
a warrior will not be delivered by great strength.

Concerning David, when he pretended to be insane in the presence of Abimelech, who drove him out, and he departed.I will praise the Lord at all times;
His praise will always be on my lips.

I will boast in the Lord;
the humble will hear and be glad.

Those who look to Him are radiant with joy;
their faces will never be ashamed.

Young lions lack food and go hungry,
but those who seek the Lord
will not lack any good thing.

Come, children, listen to me;
I will teach you the fear of the Lord.

Evil brings death to the wicked,
and those who hate the righteous will be punished.

The Lord redeems the life of His servants,
and all who take refuge in Him will not be punished.

Then I will rejoice in the Lord;
I will delight in His deliverance.

My very bones will say,
“Lord, who is like You,
rescuing the poor from one too strong for him,
the poor or the needy from one who robs him?”

Lord, how long will You look on?
Rescue my life from their ravages,
my only one from the young lions.
