Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.

They go from strength to strength: each one will appear before God in Zion.

For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

O Lord of hosts,
How blessed and greatly favored is the man who trusts in You [believing in You, relying on You, and committing himself to You with confident hope and expectation].

For the music director; written by the Korahites, a psalm. O Lord, you showed favor to your land; you restored the well-being of Jacob.

Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all their sin. Selah.

Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger.

Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?

Will You not revive us and bring us to life again,
That Your people may rejoice in You?

I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.

Surely, he will soon deliver those who fear him, for his glory will live in our land.

Loyal love and faithfulness will meet one another; righteousness and peace will kiss.

Faithfulness will sprout from [the] ground, and righteousness will look down from heaven.

Yea, Jehovah will give that which is good; And our land shall yield its increase.

Righteousness will go before him, and it will make his steps a pathway.

Protect my life (soul), for I am godly and faithful;
O You my God, save Your servant, who trusts in You [believing in You and relying on You, confidently committing everything to You].

Be merciful unto me, O Lord; For unto thee do I cry all the day long.

Rejoice the soul of thy servant, for to thee, O Jehovah, will I lift up my soul.

For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.

In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.

All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.

Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.

I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.

because your loyal love [is] great toward me, and you will have delivered my life from Sheol below.

God, arrogant men rise up against me, while a company of ruthless individuals want to kill me. They do not have regard for you.

Show me a sign of [Your] goodwill,
That those who hate me may see it and be ashamed,
Because You, O Lord, helped and comforted me.

The LORD loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man was born there.

Yea, of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her; And the Most High himself will establish her.

Jehovah will count, when he writeth up the peoples, This one was born there. Selah

As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.

A song, a psalm written by the Korahites; for the music director; according to the machalath-leannoth style; a well-written song by Heman the Ezrachite. O Lord God who delivers me! By day I cry out and at night I pray before you.

Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah.

Mine eye hath grieved because of affliction, I called Thee, O Jehovah, all the day, I have spread out unto Thee my hands.

Will You perform wonders for the dead?
Shall the departed spirits arise and praise You? Selah.

Will Your faithful love be declared in the grave,
Your faithfulness in Abaddon?

Will Your wonders be known in the darkness
or Your righteousness in the land of oblivion?

But, I, unto thee, O Yahweh, have cried for help, And, in the morning, my prayer will confront thee!

I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.

They came round about me like water all the day long; They compassed me about together.

{Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite.} I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.

For I have said, “Goodness and lovingkindness will be built up forever;
In the heavens [unchangeable and majestic] You will establish Your faithfulness.”

Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. Selah.

And [so the] heavens will praise your wonderful deed, O Yahweh, even your faithfulness, in [the] assembly of [the] holy ones.

God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.

O Lord God of hosts, who is like You, O mighty Lord?
Your faithfulness surrounds You [as an intrinsic, unchangeable part of Your very being].

Rahab was crushed by you like one wounded to death; with your strong arm you put to flight all your haters.

The heavens are Yours, the earth also is Yours;
The world and all that is in it, You have founded and established them.

Happy are the people who have knowledge of the holy cry: the light of your face, O Lord, will be shining on their way.

In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.

For the beauty of their strength art Thou, And in Thy good will is our horn exalted,

You spoke to your faithful ones through a vision: "I will set a helper over a warrior. I will raise up a chosen one from the people.

I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:

with whom my hand will be steadfast. Surely my arm will strengthen him.

[The] enemy will not deceive him, and no {evil man} will afflict him.

And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him.

And [so] my faithfulness and my loyal love [will be] with him, and in my name his horn will rise up.

I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.

He will call out [to] me, 'You [are] my Father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.'

Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.

My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.

His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.

Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.

Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.

My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.

Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.

His offspring will endure forever, and his throne as the sun before me.

Like [the] moon it will be steadfast forever, and [like] an enduring witness in the sky.'" Selah

But [in apparent contradiction of all this] You [the faithful Lord] have cast off and rejected;
You have been full of wrath against Your anointed.

Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin.

All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours.

Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.

How long, O Lord?
Will You hide Yourself forever?
Will Your wrath burn like fire?

Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in vain?

What man now living will not see death? will he be able to keep back his soul from the underworld? (Selah.)

Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;

{A Prayer of Moses the man of God.} Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.

You will sweep them away while they are asleep by morning they are like growing grass.

In the morning it will flourish, and it will pass away at evening; it will be cut off and will dry up.

For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told.

Please return, LORD! When will it be? Comfort your servants.

O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

May your awesome deeds be revealed to your servants, as well as your splendor to their children.

[One who] lives in the secret place of the Most High will lodge in the shadow of Shaddai.

I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

For he will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, And from the deadly pestilence.

He will cover thee with his pinions, And under his wings shalt thou take refuge: His truth is a shield and a buckler.

You will not fear the terror of the night,
the arrow that flies by day,

A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right [hand], [but] it will not come near you.

You will only look with your eyes, and see [the] punishment of [the] wicked.

No harm will befall you, and no plague will come near your tent.

For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

In [their] hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.

You will tread on lion and viper; you will trample young lion and serpent.

Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.

An unwise man will not know this, and a fool will not understand it -

When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:
