I cry aloud to the Lord,
and He answers me from His holy mountain.Selah

In peace, will I lay me down and at once sleep; for, thou, Yahweh alone, wilt cause me, in security, to dwell.

O Jehovah, the morning thou wilt hear my voice; the morning I will set in order to thee, and I will look about.

Thou wilt destroy them that speak lies: Jehovah abhorreth the blood-thirsty and deceitful man.

And all that trust in thee shall rejoice: for ever shall they shout joyously, and thou wilt protect them; and they that love thy name shall exult in thee.

For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

To the overseer upon the stringed instruments upon the octave, chanting of David. O Jehovah, not in thine anger wilt thou correct me, and not in thy wrath wilt thou chastise me.

My soul also is sore troubled; but LORD, how long wilt thou punish me?

Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.

Now shall the evil of the unjust come to an end; and thou wilt direct the just one: for the just God tried hearts and reins.

But, for himself, hath he made ready the weapons so deadly, His arrows, he, so fiery, would make:

What is man that thou wilt remember him? and the son of man that thou wilt review him?

And thou wilt diminish him a little more than the messengers, and thou wilt surround him with glory and honor.

And thou wilt give him dominion over the works of thy hands; thou didst put all under his feet:

sheep and cattle, all of them, and also [the] wild animals of [the] field,

I will give thanks and praise the Lord, with all my heart;
I will tell aloud all Your wonders and marvelous deeds.

That I may tell aloud all Your praises,
That in the gates of the daughter of Zion (Jerusalem)
I may rejoice in Your salvation and Your help.

Wherefore, O Jehovah, wilt thou stand afar off? wilt thou hide for times in straits?

Arise, O Jehovah; O God, lift up thine hand: thou wilt not forget the poor.

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

Thou sawest; for thou wilt look upon trouble and anger, to give with thine hand: the poor will be left to thee; thou wert the helper of the orphan.

Shatter thou the arm of the lawless one, And, as for the wrongful, wilt thou not enquire for his lawlessness - wilt thou not find it ?

LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:

Thou wilt keep them, O Jehovah, Thou wilt preserve them from this generation for ever.

{To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.} How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

How long, O Jehovah, wilt thou wholly forget me? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that would understand and seek after God.

Have all the workers of evil no knowledge? they take my people for food as they would take bread; they make no prayer to the Lord.

You [evildoers] shamefully plan against the poor,
But the Lord is his safe refuge.

Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion!
When the Lord restores His captive people,
Then Jacob will rejoice, Israel will be glad.

For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

Hear, O Yahweh, the right, Attend to my loud cry, Give ear unto my prayer, on lips that would not deceive:

Thou didst try my heart; thou didst review the night; thou didst refine me, thou wilt find nothing: I purposed, my mouth shall not pass by.

I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech.

Guard me, as the pupil of the eye, - Under the shadow of thy wings, wilt thou hide me:

From men of thy hand, O Jehovah, from men of this world their portion in life, and thou wilt fill their belly with thy hidden things: they will be filled with sons, they left the remaining things to their children.

Then the LORD thundered in the heavens, and the Most High sounded aloud, calling for hail stones and flashes of fire.

With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful; with an upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright;

With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself froward.

For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high looks.

For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness.

Thou wilt give to me the shield of thy salvation, and thy right hand will uphold me, and thy clemency will enlarge me.

You enlarge the path beneath me and make my steps secure,
So that my feet will not slip.

Thou wilt gird one with strength for war: thou wilt bend under me those rising up against me.

Thou wilt deliver me from the contentions of the people; thou wilt set me for head of the nations: a people I knew not shall serve me.

Foreigners will wilt away; they will come trembling out of their stronghold.

Delivering me from mine enemies: from those rising up thou wilt lift me up: thou wilt deliver me from the man of violence

We will shout aloud in thy salvation, and, in the Name of our God, shall we become great, Yahweh fulfil all thy petitions.

For thou wilt come to meet him, with the blessings of goodness, Thou wilt set on his head, a crown of pure gold.

Great is his glory, in thy salvation, Honour and majesty, wilt thou lay upon him;

For thou wilt appoint him blessings evermore, wilt cheer him with joy by thy countenance;

Thou wilt make them as a fiery furnace in the time of thine anger: Jehovah will swallow them up in his wrath, And the fire shall devour them.

Their fruit wilt thou destroy from the earth, And their seed from among the children of men.

For thou wilt make them turn their back; Thou wilt make ready with thy bowstrings against their face.

My God, I will call in the day, and thou wilt not answer; and in the night no silence to me.

In thee our fathers trusted: they trusted, and thou wilt deliver them.

He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.

Thou wilt not remove far from me, for straits draw near; for none helping.

Dried as a potsherd, is my strength, And, my tongue, is made to cleave to my gums, And, in the dust of death, wilt thou lay me.

Yes, wild dogs surround me -- a gang of evil men crowd around me; like a lion they pin my hands and feet.

And thou, O Jehovah, wilt not be far off: O my strength, hasten to help me.

Deliver me from the sword! Save my life from the claws of the wild dogs!

Save me from the lion's mouth; Yea, from the horns of the wild-oxen thou hast answered me.

Thou wilt set in order a table before me in front of mine enemies: thou madest fat mine head with oil; my cup being satisfied with drink.

Unto thee, O Yahweh, my soul, would I lift:

Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.

The sins of my youth and my transgressions thou wilt not remember: according to thy mercy remember thou for me for sake of thy goodness, O Jehovah.

For thy name's sake, O Jehovah, thou wilt indeed pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.

I have not sat with men of deceit, nor, with dissemblers, would I enter;

I have hated the convocation of evil-doers, and, with lawless men, would I not sit;

To sound aloud a song, and to recount all thy wonderful doings.

Thou wilt not gather my soul with the sinning, and my life with men of bloods:

Even if an army came against me with its tents, my heart would have no fear: if war was made on me, my faith would not be moved.

Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud;
Be gracious and compassionate to me and answer me.

Thou wilt not cover thy face from me; thou wilt not turn away thy servant in anger: thou, wert my help; thou wilt not leave me and thou wilt not forsake me, my God saving me.

Even if my father and mother abandoned me, the Lord would take me in.

Thou wilt not give me to the soul of him pressing me, for witnesses of falsehood rose up against me, and violence will blow.

I would have despaired had I not believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord
In the land of the living.

To you, Yahweh, I call. My rock, don't be deaf to me; lest, if you are silent to me, I would become like those who go down into the pit.

Thou wilt not draw me with the unjust, and with those working vanity, speaking peace with their neighbors, and evil in their heart

He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild-ox.

O Jehovah my God, I cried to thee, and thou wilt heal me.

O Lord, You have brought up my soul from Sheol;
You have kept me alive, that I would not go down to the pit.

Thou didst turn my wailing to dancing to me: thou didst loose my sackcloth, and thou wilt gird me with gladness;

For thou art my rock and my fortress; and, for thy name's sake, thou wilt lead me and guide me.

Wilt thou bring me forth, out of the net which they have hidden for me? For, thou, art my refuge.

Favour me, O Jehovah, for distress is to me, Mine eye, my soul, and my body Have become old by provocation.

For my life hath been consumed in sorrow And my years in sighing. Feeble because of mine iniquity hath been my strength, And my bones have become old.

In the covert of thy presence wilt thou hide them from the plottings of man: Thou wilt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.

When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.

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.

Thou art my hiding-place; thou wilt preserve me from trouble; Thou wilt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah

Do not be like a horse [or] like a mule, without understanding; [that needs] his tackle--bridle and rein--for restraint [or he would not] come near you.

Do you want to really live? Would you love to live a long, happy life?

Let them be overcome and put to shame who make attempts to take my soul; let those who would do me damage be turned back and made foolish.

I mourned for them as I would for a friend or my brother. I bowed down in sorrow as if I were mourning for my mother.

But when I stumbled, they rejoiced and gathered together. They gathered together against me attackers whom I did not know. They tore me apart and would not stop.

Lord, how long wilt thou look on? rescue my soul from their destructions, my darling from the lions.

Thou sawest, O Jehovah: thou wilt not be silent: O Jehovah, thou wilt not remove far off from me.
