He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither. Whatever he does shall prosper.

He who sits in the heavens will laugh. The Lord will have them in derision.

Then he will speak to them in his anger, and terrify them in his wrath:

I will tell of the decree. The LORD said to me, "You are my son. Today I have become your father.

Ask of me, and I will give the nations for your inheritance, the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession.

Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, for his wrath will soon be kindled. Blessed are all those who take refuge in him.

I will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people who have set themselves against me on every side.

You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? Will you love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah.

But know that the LORD has set apart for himself him who is godly: The LORD will hear when I call to him.

Many say, "Who will show us any good?" LORD, let the light of your face shine on us.

In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you, the LORD alone, make me live in safety.

LORD, in the morning you shall hear my voice. In the morning I will lay my requests before you, and will watch expectantly.

You will destroy those who speak lies. The LORD abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

But as for me, in the abundance of your loving kindness I will come into your house. I will bow toward your holy temple in reverence of you.

For you will bless the righteous. LORD, you will surround him with favor as with a shield.

If a man doesn't relent, he will sharpen his sword; he has bent and strung his bow.

I will give thanks to the LORD according to his righteousness, and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.

I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart. I will tell of all your marvelous works.

I will be glad and rejoice in you. I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.

He will judge the world in righteousness. He will administer judgment to the peoples in uprightness.

The LORD will also be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.

Those who know your name will put their trust in you, for you, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.

that I may show forth all your praise. In the gates of the daughter of Zion, I will rejoice in your salvation.

He says in his heart, "God has forgotten. He hides his face. He will never see it."

The LORD is King forever and ever. The nations will perish out of his land.

LORD, you have heard the desire of the humble. You will prepare their heart. You will cause your ear to hear,

On the wicked he will rain blazing coals; fire, sulfur, and scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup.

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

"Because of the oppression of the weak and because of the groaning of the needy, I will now arise," says the LORD; "I will set him in safety from those who malign him."

You will keep them, LORD. You will preserve them from this generation forever.

How long, LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?

I will sing to the LORD, because he has been good to me.

Their sorrows shall be multiplied who give gifts to another god. Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take their names on my lips.

I will bless the LORD, who has given me counsel. Yes, my heart instructs me in the night seasons.

For you will not leave my soul in Sheol, neither will you allow your holy one to see corruption.

You will show me the path of life. In your presence is fullness of joy. In your right hand there are pleasures forevermore.

I have called on you, for you will answer me, God. Turn your ear to me. Hear my speech.

With the merciful you will show yourself merciful. With the perfect man, you will show yourself perfect.

With the pure, you will show yourself pure. With the crooked you will show yourself shrewd.

For you will save the afflicted people, but the haughty eyes you will bring down.

For you will light my lamp, LORD. My God will light up my darkness.

I will pursue my enemies, and overtake them. Neither will I turn again until they are consumed.

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

Therefore I will give thanks to you, LORD, among the nations, and will sing praises to your name.

Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins. Let them not have dominion over me. Then I will be upright. I will be blameless and innocent of great transgression.

He will send you help from the sanctuary, and give you support from Zion.

He will remember all your offerings, and accept your burnt sacrifice. Selah.

He will grant you your heart's desire, and fulfill all your plans.

We will triumph in your salvation. In the name of our God, we will set up our banners. May the LORD grant all your requests.

Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the saving strength of his right hand.

Your hand will find out all of your enemies. Your right hand will find out those who hate you.

You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. The LORD will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire shall devour them.

You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from among the children of men.

For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn bows at their face.

Be exalted, LORD, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power.

Save me from the lion's mouth. Yes, from the horns of the wild oxen, you have answered me.

I will declare your name to my brothers. In the midst of the assembly, I will praise you.

Of you comes my praise in the great assembly. I will pay my vows before those who fear him.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the LORD's house forever.

Lift up your heads, you gates. Be lifted up, you everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in.

Lift up your heads, you gates; lift them up, you everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in.

Good and upright is the LORD, therefore he will instruct sinners in the way.

He will guide the humble in justice. He will teach the humble his way.

The friendship of the LORD is with those who fear him. He will show them his covenant.

My eyes are ever on the LORD, for he will pluck my feet out of the net.

I have not sat with deceitful men, neither will I go in with hypocrites.

I hate the assembly of evildoers, and will not sit with the wicked.

I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, LORD;

But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Redeem me, and be merciful to me.

My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations I will bless the LORD.

Though an army should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear. Though war should rise against me, even then I will be confident.

One thing I have asked of the LORD, that I will seek after, that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to see the LORD's beauty, 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 he will hide me. He will lift me up on a rock.

Now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me. I will offer sacrifices of joy in his tent. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.

When you said, "Seek my face," my heart said to you, "I will seek your face, LORD."

When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.

I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

Because they do not regard the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he will break them down and not build them up.

The LORD is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank him.

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

The LORD will give strength to his people. The LORD will bless his people with peace.

I will extol you, LORD, for you have raised me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me.

To the end that my heart may sing praise to you, and not be silent. LORD my God, I will give thanks to you forever.

I will be glad and rejoice in your loving kindness, for you have seen my affliction. You have known my soul in adversities.

In the shelter of your presence you will hide them from the plotting of man. You will keep them secretly in a dwelling away from the strife of tongues.

I acknowledged my sin to you. I did not hide my iniquity. I said, I will confess my transgressions to the LORD, and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah.

You are my hiding place. You will preserve me from trouble. You will surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah.

I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go. I will counsel you with my eye on you.

Do not be like the horse, or like the mule, which have no understanding, who are controlled by bit and bridle, or else they will not come near to you.

I will bless the LORD at all times. His praise will always be in my mouth.

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

Lord, how long will you look on? Rescue my soul from their destruction, my precious life from the lions.

I will give you thanks in the great assembly. I will praise you among many people.

They shall be abundantly satisfied with the abundance of your house. You will make them drink of the river of your pleasures.

Also delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.

Commit your way to the LORD. Trust also in him, and he will act.

And he will make your righteousness go forth as the light, and your justice as the noonday.

For yet a little while, and the wicked will be no more. Yes, though you look for his place, he isn't there.

The Lord will laugh at him, for he sees that his day is coming.
