He asked you to sustain his life, and you have granted him long life and an enduring dynasty.

His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.

For thou makest him most blessed for ever: Thou makest him glad with joy in thy presence.

For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.

Your hand will make a search for all your haters; your right hand will be hard on all those who are against you.

Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.

For their thoughts were bitter against you: they had an evil design in their minds, which they were not able to put into effect.

Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them.

Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power.

To the Overseer, on 'The Hind of the Morning.' -- A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me? Far from my salvation, The words of my roaring?

O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.

But You are holy,
O You who are enthroned in [the holy place where] the praises of Israel [are offered].

Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.

They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.

But I am a worm and not a man; cursed by men, and looked down on by the people.

He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.

But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts.

On Thee I have been cast from the womb, From the belly of my mother Thou art my God.

Do not be far from me, because distress is near
and there is no one to help.

Many [enemies like] bulls have surrounded me;
Strong bulls of Bashan have encircled me.

They gaped on me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.

I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue cleaveth to my palate; and thou hast laid me in the dust of death.

For dogs have encompassed me; an assembly of evil-doers have surrounded me: they pierced my hands and my feet.

I am able to see all my bones; their looks are fixed on me:

Deliver my soul from the sword; my only one from the power of the dog;

I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.

Ye that fear Jehovah, praise him; All ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; And stand in awe of him, all ye the seed of Israel.

For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.

My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

All the ends of the earth will keep it in mind and be turned to the Lord: all the families of the nations will give him worship.

For, to Yahweh, belongeth the kingdom, And One to Rule over the nations.

All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.

The LORD is the one who is shepherding me; I lack nothing.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Also -- when I walk in a valley of death-shade, I fear no evil, for Thou art with me, Thy rod and Thy staff -- they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

A Psalm of David. To Jehovah is the earth and its fulness, The world and the inhabitants in it.

For He on the seas hath founded it, And on the floods He doth establish it.

Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?

The one who has clean hands and a pure heart,
who has not set his mind on what is false,
and who has not sworn deceitfully.

Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.

Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

By David. O Lord, I come before you in prayer.

O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.

Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.

Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.

O Lord, keep in mind your pity and your mercies; for they have been from the earliest times.

Do not remember the sins of my youth
or my acts of rebellion;
in keeping with Your faithful love, remember me
because of Your goodness, Lord.

Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.

The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.

What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.

His soul shall dwell in prosperity, and his seed shall inherit the earth.

The secret of the Lord is with those in whose hearts is the fear of him; he will make his agreement clear to them.

My eyes are always on the Lord,
for He will pull my feet out of the net.

Turn to me and have mercy on me because I [am] lonely and afflicted.

Look on my affliction and my pain, and forgive all my sins.

Look on my enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.

O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.

Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.

{A Psalm of David.} Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.

Put me in the scales, O Lord, so that I may be tested; let the fire make clean my thoughts and my heart.

For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.

I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.

I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:

raising my voice in thanksgiving
and telling about Your wonderful works.

In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.

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 the LORD.

Yahweh, is my light and my salvation, Of whom shall I be afraid? Yahweh, is the refuge of my life, Of whom shall I be in dread?

When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in his temple.

For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

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

Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.

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

Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.

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

Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.

Do not hand me over to the desires of my enemies; for false witnesses have risen up against me; even the one who breathes out violence.

I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

Unto thee, O Yahweh, do I cry, O my Rock! do not turn in silence from me, - lest, if thou turn from me in silence, I be like them who go down into the pit.

Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.

Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings. Give them according to the operation of their hands. Bring back on them what they deserve.

For they regard not in their mind the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands: therefore shall he break them down, and not build them up.

The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.

Jehovah is their strength; and he is the stronghold of salvation to his anointed one.

Be a saviour to your people, and send a blessing on your heritage: be their guide, and let them be lifted up for ever.

Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

The voice of Jehovah is on the waters, The God of glory hath thundered, Jehovah is on many waters.

the voice of the Lord in power,
the voice of the Lord in splendor.

The voice of Jehovah breaketh the cedars; Yea, Jehovah breaketh in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.

The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory.

Jehovah on the deluge hath sat, And Jehovah sitteth king -- to the age,
