Jehovah reigns; let the peoples tremble. He sits between the cherubs; let the earth quake.

Let them praise Your great and fearful name; it is holy.

A prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed and pours out his complaint before Jehovah. Hear my prayer, O Jehovah, and let my cry come to You.

Of old You have laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the work of Your hands.

covering Yourself with light as with a robe; and stretching out the heavens like a curtain;

He laid the earth on its foundations; it shall not be shaken forever.

Let the sinners perish from the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless Jehovah, O my soul. Praise Jehovah!

Glory in His holy name; let the heart of those who seek Jehovah rejoice.

saying, To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;

whose feet they hurt with chains; he was laid in iron,

The king sent and set him free; the ruler of the people, and let him go free.

He spread a cloud for a covering, and fire to give light in the night.

And He rebuked the Red Sea, and it was dried up; so He led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.

Blessed is Jehovah, the God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting; and let all the people say, Amen. Praise Jehovah!

Let the redeemed of Jehovah say so, whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy,

Let them praise Jehovah for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the sons of man!

Let them praise Jehovah for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the sons of man!

And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare His works with rejoicing!

Let them praise Jehovah for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the sons of man!

And let them exalt Him in the congregation of the people, and praise Him in the gathering of the elders.

Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me into Edom?

Set a wicked man over him; and let an adversary stand at his right hand,

when he is judged, let him be condemned; and let his prayer become sin.

Let his days be few; let another take his office.

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

Let his sons always beg and be vagabonds, and seek food out of their ruins.

Let the money-lender lay a snare for all that is his; and let strangers take the fruit of his labor.

Let there be none to give mercy to him; nor any to favor his fatherless children.

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

Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered to Jehovah; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

Let them be always before Jehovah, that He may cut off their memory from the earth,

Yea, he loved cursing, so let it come to him; he delighted not in blessing, and it was far from him.

As he clothed himself with cursing, as with his robe, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.

Let it be to him as the robe which covers him, and for a girdle with which he is always clothed.

They will curse, but You will bless; they arise, and are ashamed; but let Your servant rejoice.

Let my foes be clothed with shame, and let them cover themselves with their own shame, as with a cloak.

To the upright there arises light in the darkness; he is gracious and full of pity and righteousness.

Let Israel now say that His mercy endures forever.

Let the house of Aaron now say that His mercy endures forever.

Let those who fear Jehovah now say that His mercy endures forever.

God is Jehovah, who gives light to us. Tie the sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar.

With all my heart I have sought You; do not let me wander from Your Commandments.

I have chosen the way of truth; I have laid Your judgments before me.

VAU: Let Your mercies come to me, O Jehovah, even according to Your salvation, according to Your Word.

I beseech You, let Your merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to Your Word to Your servant.

Let Your tender mercies come to me so that I may live; for Your Law is my delight.

Let the proud be ashamed; for they perverted my cause with lying; I will think on Your Commandments.

Let those who fear You turn to me, and those who have known Your testimonies.

Let my heart be sound in Your Precepts, so that I may not be ashamed.

NUN: Your Word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path.

The wicked have laid a snare for me; yet I do not go astray from Your Commandments.

Uphold me according to Your Word, that I may live; and let me not be ashamed of my hope.

Be surety for Your servant for good; let not the proud press me down.

The entrance of Your Words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.

Order my steps in Your Word; and do not let any iniquity rule over me.

TAU: Let my cry come near to You, O Jehovah; give me wisdom according to Your Word.

Let my prayer come before You; deliver me according to Your Word.

Let Your hand help me; for I have chosen Your Precepts.

Let my soul live, and it shall praise You; and let Your judgments help me.

A Song of degrees; of David. I was glad when they said to me, Let us go into the house of Jehovah.

For the rod of the wicked shall not rest on the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands to iniquity.

And those who turn aside to their crooked ways, Jehovah shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity; peace shall be on Israel.

It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows; for so He gives His beloved sleep.

Let them all be ashamed and turned back, those who hate Zion.

Let them be like the grass on the housetops, which dries up before it grows up,

Lord, hear my voice, and let Your ears listen to the voice of My prayers.

Let Israel hope in Jehovah; for with Jehovah there is mercy, and with Him is plentiful redemption.

Let Israel hope in Jehovah from this moment and forever.

Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness, and Your saints shout for joy.

To Him who led His people through the wilderness; for His mercy endures forever.

If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget.

If I do not remember you, let my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth; if I do not prefer Jerusalem above my chief joy.

You have closed me in behind and in front, and laid Your hand on me.

even there shall Your hand lead me, and Your right hand shall hold me.

If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me, even the night shall be light around me.

Yea, the darkness does not hide from You; but the night shines as the day; as is the darkness, so is the light to You.

and see if any wicked way is in me; and lead me in the way everlasting.

As for the head of those around me, let the evil of their own lips cover them.

Let burning coals fall on them; let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, so that they do not rise up again.

Do not let an evil speaker be established in the earth; evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.

Let my prayer be set forth before You as incense, and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.

Let not my heart turn aside to any evil thing, to practice wicked works with men who work iniquity; and let me not eat of their delicacies.

Let the righteous strike me; it shall be a kindness; and let him correct me, it is oil on my head, let not my head refuse it; for still my prayer also shall be against their wickedness.

Keep me from the traps which they have laid for me, and the snares of the workers of evil.

Let the wicked fall into their own nets together, while I escape.

When my spirit fainted within me, then You knew my path. In the way in which I walked they have secretly laid a snare for me.

Teach me to do Your will; for You are my God; Your Spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

My mouth shall speak the praise of Jehovah; and let all flesh bless His holy name forever and ever.

Praise Him, sun and moon; praise Him, all stars of light.

Let them praise the name of Jehovah; for He commanded, and they were created.

Let praise be to Jehovah from the earth, the sea-monsters, and all deeps;

let them praise the name of Jehovah; for His name alone is excellent; His glory is above the earth and heavens.

Let Israel rejoice in his Maker; let the sons of Zion be joyful in their King.

Let them praise His name in the dance; let them sing praises to Him with the timbrel and harp.

Let the saints be joyful in glory; let them sing aloud on their beds.

Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand,

Let everything that breathes praise Jehovah. Praise Jehovah!

If they say, Come with us, let us lie in wait for blood, we will watch secretly for the innocent without cause;

let us swallow them up alive as the grave, and whole, as those who go down into the pit;

cast in your lot among us, and let us have one purse.
