Many [are] saying about my soul, "There is no deliverance for him from God. Selah

Rise up, O Yahweh; deliver me, O my God; for you strike all my enemies [on the] cheek. [The] teeth of [the] wicked you break.

When I call, answer me, O God of my righteousness. In trouble {deliver me}. Be gracious to me and hear my prayer.

Many are saying, "Who will show us [something] good?" Lift up over us the light of your face, O Yahweh.

Listen to the sound of my pleading, my king and my God, for to you I pray.

For you [are] not a God [who] desires wickedness. Evil cannot dwell with you.

Treat them as guilty, O God; let them fall because of their plans. Because of the abundance of their transgressions cast them out, for they have rebelled against you.

For you bless [the] righteous. O Yahweh, like a shield you surround him [with] good favor.

O Yahweh, my God, in you I have taken refuge. Save me from all [who] pursue me, and deliver me.

O Yahweh, my God, if I have done this, if there is wrong in my hands,

Let the evil of the wicked come to an end, but establish [the] righteous, and test the hearts and innermost being, O righteous God.

My shield [is] with God who saves the upright of heart.

God [is] a righteous judge, and a God who has indignation every day.

[The] wicked shall turn back to Sheol, all [the] nations forgetting God,

{With bald-faced pride} [the] wicked will not seek [God]. There is no God in any of his thoughts.

He says in his heart, "God has forgotten. He has hidden his face. He never sees."

Rise up, O Yahweh; O God, lift up your hand. Do not forget [the] afflicted.

Why does the wicked treat God with contempt? He says in his heart, "You will not call [me] to account."

May Yahweh cut off all flattering lips, [the] tongue speaking great boasts--

Consider [and] answer me, O Yahweh my God. Give light to my eyes lest I sleep [the sleep of] death,

[The] fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt. They do abominable deeds. There is none who does good.

Yahweh looks down from heaven upon the children of humankind to see whether there is one who has insight, one who cares about God.

All have gone astray; they are altogether corrupt. There is not one who does good; there is not even one.

There {they are very fearful} because God [is] with [the] generation of [the] righteous.

Protect me, O God, for I take refuge in you.

[Oh my soul] you have said to Yahweh, "You [are] my Lord. I have no good apart from you."

Those [who] hurry [after] another [god] increase their sorrows. I will not pour out their drink offerings of blood, nor take up their names on my lips.

As for me, I have called on you because you will answer me, O God. Incline your ear to me. Hear my words.

Yahweh [is] my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock in whom I have taken refuge, my shield and the horn of my deliverance, my stronghold.

In my trouble I called on Yahweh, and to my God I cried for help. He heard my voice from his temple, and my cry for help came up before his presence into his ears.

Because I have kept the ways of Yahweh, and have not acted wickedly against my God,

For you light my lamp; Yahweh, my God, lights up my darkness.

For with you I can charge a troop, and with my God I can scale a wall.

This God--his way [is] blameless. The word of Yahweh [is] flawless. He [is] a shield for all those who take refuge in him.

For who [is] God apart from Yahweh, and who [is] a rock except our God?

The God who girded me [with] strength, and made safe my way,

Yahweh lives, and blessed [be] my rock, and may the God of my salvation be exalted--

the God who executed vengeance for me, and subdued peoples under me,

The heavens [are] telling the glory of God, and the firmament proclaims the work of his hands.

May Yahweh answer you in [the] day of trouble. May the name of Jacob's God protect you.

May we shout for joy over your victory, and in the name of our God may we set up banners. May Yahweh fulfill all your requests.

{Some boast in chariots and others in horses}, but we boast in the name of Yahweh, our God.

For you meet him [with] blessings of good [things]. You set on his head a crown of fine gold.

My God, my God why have you forsaken me? [Why are you] far from helping me, [far from] the words of my groaning?

O my God, I call by day and you do not answer, and [by] night but I have no rest.

On you I was cast from [the] womb. From my mother's belly you [have been] my God.

In grassy pastures he makes me lie down; by quiet waters he leads me.

He will receive blessing from Yahweh, and justice from the God of his salvation.

O my God, I trust you; let me not be put to shame. Do not let my enemies exult over me.

Cause me to walk in your truth and teach me, because you [are] the God of my salvation. I await you {all day long}.

Good and right [is] Yahweh; therefore he instructs sinners in the way.

O God, redeem Israel from all its troubles.

Do not hide your face from me; do not turn your servant away in anger. You have been my help; do not abandon nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.

Ascribe to Yahweh, O sons of God, ascribe to Yahweh glory and strength.

The voice of Yahweh [is] over the waters; the God of glory thunders. Yahweh [is] over many waters.

O Yahweh, my God, I cried for help to you, and you healed me.

so that {I} may sing praises to you and not be quiet. O Yahweh, my God, I will give thanks to you forever.

Into your hand I commit my spirit. You have redeemed me, O Yahweh, faithful God.

But as for me, I trust you, O Yahweh. I say, "You [are] my God."

As for me, I said in my alarm, "I am cut off from before your eyes." However you heard the voice of my supplications when I cried to you for help.

Blessed [is] the nation whose God [is] Yahweh, the people he has chosen for his inheritance.

Taste and see that Yahweh [is] good; blessed [is] the man [who] takes refuge in him.

[The] young lions are in want and suffer hunger, but those who seek Yahweh will not lack for any good thing.

Who [is] the man who desires life, who loves [many] days in order to see good?

Turn from evil and do good. Seek peace and pursue it.

The face of Yahweh [is] against evildoers, to cut off the remembrance of them from [the] earth.

They repay me evil in place of good. [It is] bereavement to my soul.

For they do not speak peace, but against [the] quiet [ones] of [the] land they plan deceitful words.

Wake up and rouse yourself for my right, for my cause, O my God and my Lord.

Vindicate me according to your righteousness, O Yahweh my God, and do not let them rejoice over me.

An oracle: the wicked has rebellion in the midst of his heart. There is no fear of God before his eyes.

The words of his mouth [are] wickedness and deceit. He has ceased to have insight [and] to do good.

He plans sin on his bed. He puts himself on a way [that is] not good. He does not reject evil.

How precious [is] your loyal love, O God, and the children of humankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings.

Trust Yahweh and do good. Abide [in the] land and feed on faithfulness.

Be quiet before Yahweh and wait for him. Do not fret about one who succeeds [in] his way, about a man making plots.

For evildoers will be cut off, but those who wait for Yahweh-- they will possess [the] land.

For those blessed [by] him shall possess [the] land, but those cursed [by] him shall be cut off.

Turn aside from evil and do good and [so] abide forever.

For Yahweh loves justice and will not forsake his faithful ones. They are protected forever. But [the] children of [the] wicked will be cut off.

The law of his God [is] in his heart. His steps will not slip.

Wait for Yahweh and keep his way, and he will exalt you to possess [the] land. When [the] wicked are cut off, you will see [it].

But transgressors shall be destroyed altogether. [The] future of [the] wicked shall be cut off.

Rather for you I wait, O Yahweh. You will answer, O Lord my God.

And those who repay evil in return for good accuse me in return for my pursuing good.

Do not forsake me, O Yahweh. O my God, do not be far from me.

I was mute [with] silence. I was silent [even] from [saying] good [things], and my pain was stirred up.

Then he put a new song in my mouth, a praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and will trust Yahweh.

Many things, O Yahweh my God, you have done-- your wonderful deeds and your thoughts toward us. There is none to compare with you. If I [tried to] proclaim and tell [of them], they would be too numerous to count.

'I delight to do your will, O my God, and your law [is] {deep within me}.'"

I have brought good tidings [of] righteousness in the great congregation. Look, I have not shut my lips. O Yahweh, {you surely know that}.

But I [am] poor and needy. Let my Lord consider me. You [are] my help and my deliverer. O my God, do not delay.

Blessed [be] Yahweh, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. Amen and Amen.

As a deer longs for streams of water, so my soul longs for you, O God.

My soul thirsts for God, for [the] living God. When shall I come and appear before God?

My tears have been my food day and night, while [they] say to me all day [long], "Where [is] your God?"

These I remember and I pour out my soul within me: that I would go with the multitude; I led them [in procession] to the house of God, with a voice of rejoicing and thanksgiving, a crowd celebrating a festival.

Why are you {in despair}, O my soul, and disturbed within me? Hope in God, because I will again praise him, [for] the salvation of his presence.

O my God, within me my soul is {in despair}; therefore I remember you from the land of Jordan and the heights of Hermon, from the mountain of Mizar.

By day Yahweh commands his loyal love, and in the night his song [is] with me, a prayer to the God of my life.
