Morning after morning I will destroy all the wicked in the land,
That I may cut off from the city of the Lord all those who do evil.

{A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed, and poureth out his complaint before the LORD.} Hear my prayer, O LORD, and let my cry come unto thee.

Hide not thy face from me in the day when I am in trouble; incline thine ear unto me: in the day when I call answer me speedily.

For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned as an hearth.

My heart has been struck like grass and withered,
Indeed, [absorbed by my heartache] I forget to eat my food.

I am like a pelican of the wilderness: I am like an owl of the desert.

I have watched, and I am As a bird alone on the roof.

All day long my enemies taunt me; those who mock me use my name in their curses.

For I have eaten ashes like bread,
And have mingled my drink with tears

because of your indignation and wrath, when you lifted and threw me away.

My days are like an evening shadow that lengthens and vanishes [with the sun];
And as for me, I wither away like grass.

You rise up and take pity on Zion, because [it is] time to favor it, for [the] appointed time has come.

For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favour the dust thereof.

When the LORD shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory.

He will regard the prayer of the destitute one, and not despise their prayer.

For when he looked down from his holy heights the LORD looked over the earth from heaven

in order to hear the painful cries of the prisoners, and to set free those condemned to die,

To declare the name of the LORD in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem;

When the people are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.

He weakened my strength in the way; he shortened my days.

I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are throughout all generations.

In earlier times you established the earth; the skies are your handiwork.

They, shall perish, But, thou, wilt abide; And, they all, like a garment, shall fall in pieces, As a vesture, wilt thou change them and they shall vanish;

But you remain; your years do not come to an end.

May the descendants of your servants live securely, and may their children be established in your presence." Davidic

Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let everything in me give praise to his holy name.

Bless and affectionately praise the Lord, O my soul,
And do not forget any of His benefits;

Who forgives all your sins,
Who heals all your diseases;

Who is satisfying with good thy desire, Renew itself as an eagle doth thy youth.

The Lord gives decisions in righteousness for all who are in trouble.

The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.

For look how high the heaven is in comparison of the earth; so great is his mercy also toward them that fear him.

As a father hath mercy on sons, Jehovah hath mercy on those fearing Him.

For He knows our [mortal] frame;
He remembers that we are [merely] dust.

A person's life is like grass. Like a flower in the field it flourishes,

When [the] wind passes over it, it is no more, and its place knows it no longer.

And the kindness of Jehovah Is from age even unto age on those fearing Him, And His righteousness to sons' sons,

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

The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.

Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.

Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.

Bless, O my soul, Jehovah! Jehovah, my God, Thou hast been very great, Honour and majesty Thou hast put on.

[You are the One] who covers Yourself with light as with a garment,
Who stretches out the heavens like a tent curtain,

Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:

He hath founded earth on its bases, It is not moved to the age and for ever.

At the voice of your word they went in flight; at the sound of your thunder they went away in fear;

Then are the hills seen aloft, and the valleys beneath - in their place which thou hast appointed for them.

Who is sending forth fountains in valleys, Between hills they go on.

They provide water for all the animals in the field; the wild donkeys quench their thirst.

[You are the one who] {waters} [the] mountains from his upper chambers. The earth is full with the fruit of your labors:

And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man's heart.

where birds make [their] nest. [The] stork [has] its home in [the] fir trees.

The wild goats live in the high mountains; the rock badgers find safety in the cliffs.

He made the moon to mark the festivals;
the sun knows when to set.

Thou settest darkness, and it is night, In it doth every beast of the forest creep.

The sun ariseth, they gather themselves together, and lay them down in their dens.

O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.

There is the sea, great and broad,
In which are swarms without number,
Creatures both small and great.

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].

You hide Your face, they are dismayed;
You take away their breath, they die
And return to their dust.

You send out Your Spirit, they are created;
You renew the face of the ground.

The glory of the LORD shall endure for ever: the LORD shall rejoice in his works.

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

I will sing to Jehovah in my living: I will play on the harp to my God in my enduring.

My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD.

Let sinners be cut off from the earth, and let all evil-doers come to an end. Give praise to the Lord, O my soul. Give praise to the Lord.

Give ye thanks to Jehovah -- call ye in His name, Make known among the peoples His acts.

Sing ye to Him -- sing praise to Him, Meditate ye on all His wonders.

Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.

Remember [with awe and gratitude] the wonderful things which He has done,
His amazing deeds and the judgments uttered by His mouth [on His enemies, as in Egypt],

He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth.

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

And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:

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

When they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to another people;

He allowed no man to oppress them;
He rebuked kings for their sakes, saying,

Saying, Put not your hand on those who have been marked with my holy oil, and do my prophets no wrong.

And He calleth a famine on the land, The whole staff of bread He hath broken.

He sent a man on ahead of them; Joseph was sold as a slave.

Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:

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

The king sent, and set him free, One having dominion over peoples, yet loosed he his bonds;

He appointed him lord to his household, And one having dominion over all he possessed;

To bind his chiefs in his soul, and to make his old men wise.

Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

He hath sent Moses His servant, Aaron whom He had fixed on.

They shewed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.

At his word their waters were turned to blood, and he sent death on all their fish.

Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings.

He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts.

He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.

And he smote their vines, and their fig-trees, And brake in pieces the trees of their bounds;

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

He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength.

He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes.

Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them.

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

They asked, and he brought in the quail, - And, with the bread of the heavens, he satisfied them;
