He that sitteth in the heavens will laugh: The Lord will have them in derision.

Then will he speak unto them in his wrath, And vex them in his sore displeasure:

I will tell of the decree: Jehovah said unto me, Thou art my son; This day have I begotten thee.

Ask of me, and I will give thee the nations for thine inheritance, And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and ye perish in the way, For his wrath will soon be kindled. Blessed are all they that take refuge in him.

I will not be afraid of ten thousands of the people That have set themselves against me round about.

O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? How long will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah

But know that Jehovah hath set apart for himself him that is godly: Jehovah will hear when I call unto him.

Many there are that say, Who will show us any good? Jehovah, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.

In peace will I both lay me down and sleep; For thou, Jehovah, alone makest me dwell in safety.

O Jehovah, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice; In the morning will I order my prayer unto thee, and will keep watch.

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

But as for me, in the abundance of thy lovingkindness will I come into thy house: In thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.

For thou wilt bless the righteous; O Jehovah, thou wilt compass him with favor as with a shield.

Jehovah hath heard my supplication; Jehovah will receive my prayer.

If a man turn not, he will whet his sword; He hath bent his bow, and made it ready.

I will give thanks unto Jehovah according to his righteousness, And will sing praise to the name of Jehovah Most High.

I will give thanks unto Jehovah with my whole heart; I will show forth all thy marvellous works.

I will be glad and exult in thee; I will sing praise to thy name, O thou Most High.

And he will judge the world in righteousness, He will minister judgment to the peoples in uprightness.

Jehovah also will be a high tower for the oppressed, A high tower in times of trouble;

And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee; For thou, Jehovah, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.

That I may show forth all thy praise. In the gates of the daughter of Zion I will rejoice in thy salvation.

The wicked, in the pride of his countenance,'saith , He will not require it . All his thoughts are, There is no God.

He saith in his heart, God hath forgotten; He hideth his face; he will never see it.

Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God, And say in his heart, Thou wilt not require it ?

Jehovah, thou hast heard the desire of the meek: Thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear;

Upon the wicked he will rain snares; Fire and brimstone and burning wind shall be the portion of their cup.

Jehovah will cut off all flattering lips, The tongue that speaketh great things;

Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; Our lips are our own: who is lord over us?

Because of the oppression of the poor, because of the sighing of the needy, Now will I arise, saith Jehovah; I will set him in the safety he panteth for.

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

How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou forget me for ever? How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

I will sing unto Jehovah, Because he hath dealt bountifully with me.

Their sorrows shall be multiplied that give gifts for another god : Their drink-offerings of blood will I not offer, Nor take their names upon my lips.

I will bless Jehovah, who hath given me counsel; Yea, my heart instructeth me in the night seasons.

For thou wilt not leave my soul to Sheol; Neither wilt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption.

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

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

Jehovah is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; My God, my rock, in whom I will take refuge; My shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.

I will call upon Jehovah, who is worthy to be praised: So shall I be saved from mine enemies.

With the merciful thou wilt show thyself merciful; With the perfect man thou wilt show thyself perfect;

With the pure thou wilt show thyself pure; And with the perverse thou wilt show thyself froward.

For thou wilt save the afflicted people; But the haughty eyes thou wilt bring down.

For thou wilt light my lamp: Jehovah my God will lighten my darkness.

I will pursue mine enemies, and overtake them; Neither will I turn again till they are consumed.

I will smite them through, so that they shall not be able to rise: They shall fall under my feet.

Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O Jehovah, among the nations, And will sing praises unto thy name.

We will triumph in thy salvation, And in the name of our God we will set up our banners: Jehovah fulfil all thy petitions.

Now know I that Jehovah saveth his anointed; He will answer him from his holy heaven With the saving strength of his right hand.

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; But we will make mention of the name of Jehovah our God.

Thy hand will find out all thine enemies; Thy right hand will find out those that hate thee.

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.

Be thou exalted, O Jehovah, in thy strength: So will we sing and praise thy power.

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

I will declare thy name unto my brethren: In the midst of the assembly will I praise thee.

Of thee cometh my praise in the great assembly: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

Yea, thou I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.

Lift up your heads, O ye gates; And be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors: And the King of glory will come in.

Lift up your heads, O ye gates; Yea, lift them up, ye everlasting doors: And the King of glory will come in.

Good and upright is Jehovah: Therefore will he instruct sinners in the way.

The meek will he guide in justice; And the meek will he teach his way.

The friendship of Jehovah is with them that fear him; And he will show them his covenant.

Mine eyes are ever toward Jehovah; For he will pluck my feet out of the net.

I have not sat with men of falsehood; Neither will I go in with dissemblers.

I hate the assembly of evil-doers, And will not sit with the wicked.

I will wash my hands in innocency: So will I compass thine altar, O Jehovah;

But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: Redeem me, and be merciful unto me.

My foot standeth in an even place: In the congregations will I bless Jehovah.

Though a host should encamp against me, My heart shall not fear: Though war should rise against me, Even then will I be confident.

One thing have I asked of Jehovah, that will I seek after; That I may dwell in the house of Jehovah all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of Jehovah, And to inquire in his temple.

For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion: In the covert of his tabernacle will he hide me; He will lift me up upon a rock.

And now shall my head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me. And I will offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto Jehovah.

When thou saidst , Seek ye my face; My heart said unto thee, Thy face, Jehovah, will I seek.

When my father and my mother forsake me, Then Jehovah will take me up.

Deliver me not over unto the will of mine adversaries: For false witnesses are risen up against me, And such as breathe out cruelty.

Unto thee, O Jehovah, will I call: My rock, be not thou deaf unto me; Lest, if thou be silent unto me, I become like them that go down into the pit.

Because they regard not the works of Jehovah, Nor the operation of his hands, He will break them down and not build them up.

Jehovah is my strength and my shield; My heart hath trusted in him, and I am helped: Therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; And with my song will I praise him.

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

Jehovah will give strength unto his people; Jehovah will bless his people with peace.

I will extol thee, O Jehovah; for thou hast raised me up, And hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.

To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Jehovah my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.

I will be glad and rejoice in thy lovingkindness; For thou hast seen my affliction: Thou hast known my soul in adversities;

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.

I acknowledged my sin unto thee, And mine iniquity did I not hide: I said, I will confess my transgressions unto Jehovah; And thou forgavest 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

I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will counsel thee with mine eye upon thee.

Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding; Whose trappings must be bit and bridle to hold them in, Else they will not come near unto thee.

I will bless Jehovah at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth.

Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of Jehovah.

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

I will give thee thanks in the great assembly: I will praise thee among much people.

For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, That his iniquity will not be found out and be hated.

They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; And thou wilt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.

Delight thyself also in Jehovah; And he will give thee the desires of thy heart.

Commit thy way unto Jehovah; Trust also in him, and he will bring it to pass.

And he will make thy righteousness to go forth as the light, And thy justice as the noon-day.
