To those who honor and keep His covenant,
And remember to do His commandments [imprinting His word on their hearts].

Bless the LORD, you angels who belong to him, you mighty warriors who carry out his commands, who are obedient to the sound of his words.

Praise the Lord, all you warriors of his, you servants of his who carry out his desires!

Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:

Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.

Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.

At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away.

Who watereth the mountains out of his upper chambers, Out of the fruit of thy works, thou satisfiest the earth.

He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;

And wine -- it rejoiceth the heart of man, To cause the face to shine from oil, And bread -- the heart of man it supporteth.

Thou makest darkness, and it is night: wherein all the beasts of the forest do creep forth.

Man goes out to his work
And remains at his labor until evening.

So is this great and wide sea, wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts.

There do ships go: leviathan, That Thou hast formed to play in it.

These wait all upon thee; that thou mayest give them their meat in due season.

You give it to them, they gather it up;
You open Your hand, they are filled and satisfied with good [things].

Thou sendest out Thy Spirit, they are created, And Thou renewest the face of the ground.

He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth: he toucheth the hills, and they smoke.

Let the sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless thou the LORD, O my soul. Praise ye the LORD.

O give thanks unto the LORD, and call upon his name; tell the people what things he hath done.

Search out Yahweh and his strength, Seek diligently his face at all times.

He is the Lord our God; he carries out judgment throughout the earth.

He has remembered His covenant forever,
The word which He commanded and established to a thousand generations,

Which he cut out with Abraham, and his oath to Isaak.

And he confirmed it unto Jacob for a statute, unto Israel for an everlasting covenant,

When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it.

what time as they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to another.

Until the time when what he said came about: the word of Jehovah tried him.

The king hath sent, and looseth him, The ruler of the peoples, and draweth him out.

To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom.

And He maketh His people very fruitful, And maketh it mightier than its adversaries.

He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.

He turned their waters into blood and it killed their fish.

It destroyed their vines and their figs, breaking trees throughout their country.

At his word the locusts came, and young locusts more than might be numbered,

And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.

And bringeth them out with silver and gold, And there is not in its tribes a feeble one.

Egypt rejoiced at their departure; for the fear of them had fallen upon them.

He spread out a cloud for a covering, and fire to give light at night.

At the people's request he sent birds, and gave them the bread of heaven for food.

He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like a river.

And [so] he brought out his people with joy, his chosen ones with rejoicing.

He gave them the lands of the nations,
and they inherited
what other peoples had worked for.

Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that doeth righteousness at all times.

Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies; but provoked him at the sea, even at the Red sea.

Yet he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make known his might.

He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.

And he took them safely out of the hands of their haters, and kept them from the attacks of those who were against them.

But they quickly forgot His works;
They did not [patiently] wait for His counsel and purpose [to be revealed regarding them],

He gave them what they asked for,
but sent a wasting disease among them.

[The] earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and it covered over the gang of Abiram.

And a fire broke out in their company;
The flame consumed the wicked.

They made a calf at Horeb and bowed down to a cast image.

Wonders in the land of Ham,
Awesome things at the Red Sea.

Then they despised the pleasant land [of Canaan];
They did not believe in His word nor rely on it,

And that He would cast out their descendants among the nations
And scatter them in the lands [of the earth].

They joined themselves also unto Baalpeor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.

And they provoked him to anger with their doings; and a plague broke out among them.

And it is reckoned to him to righteousness, To all generations -- unto the age.

They angered him also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes:

and they poured out innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, and [so] the land was defiled with the blood.

Therefore, they became unclean because of what they did; they have acted like whores by their evil deeds.

Yet he looked upon their distress when he heard their cry.

And He remembered His covenant for their sake,
And relented [rescinding their sentence] according to the greatness of His lovingkindness [when they cried out to Him],

Praise be to the Lord God of Israel for ever and for ever; and let all the people say, So be it. Give praise to the Lord.

Let the redeemed of Yahweh declare [it], [those] whom he has redeemed from [the] hand of [the] enemy

And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.

Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.

He gives its desire to the unresting soul, so that it is full of good things.

Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.

He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder.

Their soul abhorred all manner of meat, and they were even hard at death's door.

Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses.

Let them present thank offerings, and loudly proclaim what he has done!

Those who go down to the sea in ships,
Who do business on great waters;

And He saith, and appointeth a tempest, And it lifteth up its billows,

They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end.

Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses.

He makes the storm into a calm, so that the waves are at peace.

Then they are glad because it is calm, so he brings them to their desired haven.

Let them extol Him also in the congregation of the people,
And praise Him at the seat of the elders.

A productive land into a [barren] salt waste,
Because of the wickedness of those who dwell in it.

and sow fields and plant vineyards, {that they may yield fruit at harvest}.

though he suffer them to be evil-entreated through tyrants, or let them wander out of the way in the wilderness,

Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him families like a flock.

The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.

Awake, harp and lyre! I will wake up at dawn.

God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.

Hast not Thou, O God, cast us off? And Thou goest not out, O God, with our hosts!

Give us aid against the foe,
for human help is worthless.

Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.

For my love, they have been accusing me, while, I, was at prayer:

Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.

When he shall be judged, let him go out guilty, and let his prayer become sin;

Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.

Let a creditor seize all he has;
let strangers plunder what he has worked for.

There shall not be to him any drawing out mercy, and there shall not be any compassionating to his orphans

Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.
