Let no man have pity on him, or give help to his children when he is dead.

Let his seed be cut off; in the coming generation let their name go out of memory.

Let the Lord keep in mind the wrongdoing of his fathers; and may the sin of his mother have no forgiveness.

Let them be ever before the eyes of the Lord, so that the memory of them may be cut off from the earth.

As he took pleasure in cursing, so let it come on him; and as he had no delight in blessing, let it be far from him.

Let it be to him as a robe which he puts on, let it be like a band which is round him at all times.

Let this be the reward given to my haters from the Lord, and to those who say evil of my soul.

They may give curses but you give blessing; when they come up against me, put them to shame; but let your servant be glad.

Let my haters be clothed with shame, covering themselves with shame as with a robe.

Let the Lord be praised. I will give praise to the Lord with all my heart, among the upright, and in the meeting of the people.

Let the Lord be praised. Happy is the man who gives honour to the Lord, and has great delight in his laws.

Let the Lord be praised. O you servants of the Lord, give praise to the name of the Lord.

Let blessing be on the name of the Lord, from this time and for ever.

Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name let glory be given, because of your mercy and your unchanging faith.

He has let my request come before him, and I will make my prayer to him all my days.

Let all the nations give praise to the Lord: let all the people give him praise.

Let Israel now say, that his mercy is unchanging for ever.

Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy is unchanging for ever.

Let all worshippers of the Lord now say, that his mercy is unchanging for ever.

Let the doors of righteousness be open to me; I will go in and give praise to the Lord.

The Lord is God, and he has given us light; let the holy dance be ordered with branches, even up to the horns of the altar.

I have made search for you with all my heart: O let me not go wandering far from your teaching.

I will have delight in your rules; I will not let your word go out of my mind.

Let my eyes be open to see the wonders of your law.

I am living in a strange land: do not let your teachings be kept secret from me.

Let my heart be turned to your unchanging word, and not to evil desire.

Let my eyes be turned away from what is false; give me life in your ways.

Let your mercies come to me, O Lord, even your salvation, as you have said.

I was quick to do your orders, and let no time be wasted.

Let your mercy now be my comfort, as you have said to your servant.

Let your gentle mercies come to me, so that I may have life; for your law is my delight.

Let the men of pride be shamed; because they have falsely given decision against me; but I will give thought to your orders.

Let your worshippers be turned to me, and those who have knowledge of your words.

Let all my heart be given to your orders, so that I may not be put to shame.

Be my support as you have said, and give me life; let not my hope be turned to shame.

Let me not be moved, and I will be safe, and ever take delight in your rules.

Take your servant's interests into your keeping; let me not be crushed by the men of pride.

It is time, O Lord, for you to let your work be seen; for they have made your law without effect.

Let your eyes be turned to me, and have mercy on me, as it is right for you to do to those who are lovers of your name.

Let my steps be guided by your word; and let not sin have control over me.

Let your servant see the shining of your face; give me knowledge of your rules.

Let my voice come to you, in your mercy; O Lord, by your decisions give me life.

Let my cry come before you, O Lord; give me wisdom in keeping with your word.

Let my prayer come before you; take me out of trouble, as you have said.

Let my lips be flowing with praise, because you have given me knowledge of your rules.

Let my tongue make songs in praise of your word; for all your teachings are righteousness.

Let your hand be near for my help; for I have given my heart to your orders.

Give life to my soul so that it may give you praise; and let your decisions be my support.

If it had not been the Lord who was on our side (let Israel now say);

Great have been my troubles from the time when I was young (let Israel now say);

Let the Lord be praised. O you servants of the Lord, give praise to the name of the Lord.

Give praise to the Lord, O sons of Levi: let all the worshippers of the Lord give him praise.

Praise be to the Lord out of Zion, even to the Lord whose house is in Jerusalem, Let the Lord be praised.

And let Israel go through it: for his mercy is unchanging for ever:

If I keep not your memory, O Jerusalem, let not my right hand keep the memory of its art.

If I let you go out of my thoughts, and if I do not put Jerusalem before my greatest joy, let my tongue be fixed to the roof of my mouth.

O Lord, keep in mind against the children of Edom the day of Jerusalem; how they said, Let it be uncovered, uncovered even to its base.

If I say, Only let me be covered by the dark, and the light about me be night;

O God, let the secrets of my heart be uncovered, and let my wandering thoughts be tested:

As for those who come round me, let their heads be covered by the evil of their lips.

Let burning flames come down on them: let them be put into the fire, and into deep waters, so that they may not get up again.

Let not a man of evil tongue be safe on earth: let destruction overtake the violent man with blow on blow.

Let my prayer come to you, O Lord; give ear to my requests for your grace; keep faith with me, and give me an answer in your righteousness;

Let me give glory to you, O God, my King; and blessing to your name for ever and ever.

Let the Lord be praised. Give praise to the Lord, O my soul.

He has not done these things for any other nation: and as for his laws, they have no knowledge of them. Let the Lord be praised.

Give praise to the Lord. Let the Lord be praised from the heavens: give him praise in the skies.

Let them give praise to the name of the Lord: for he gave the order, and they were made.

Let them give glory to the name of the Lord: for his name only is to be praised: his kingdom is over the earth and the heaven.

He has put on high the horn of his people, for the praise of all his saints; even the children of Israel, a people which is near to him. Let the Lord be praised.

Let the Lord be praised. Make a new song to the Lord, let his praise be in the meeting of his saints.

Let the saints have joy and glory: let them give cries of joy on their beds.

Let the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hands;

Let the Lord be praised. Give praise to God in his holy place: give him praise in the heaven of his power.

Let everything which has breath give praise to the Lord. Let the Lord be praised.

If they say, Come with us; let us make designs against the good, waiting secretly for the upright, without cause;

Let us overcome them living, like the underworld, and in their strength, as those who go down to death;

Let not mercy and good faith go from you; let them be hanging round your neck, recorded on your heart;

Put no high value on your wisdom: let the fear of the Lord be before you, and keep yourself from evil:

My son, keep good sense, and do not let wise purpose go from your eyes.

Give ear, O my son, and let your heart be open to my sayings; and long life will be yours.

Take learning in your hands, do not let her go: keep her, for she is your life.

My son, give attention to my words; let your ear be turned to my sayings.

Let them not go from your eyes; keep them deep in your heart.

Put away from you an evil tongue, and let false lips be far from you.

Keep a watch on your behaviour; let all your ways be rightly ordered.

Let there be no turning to the right or to the left, keep your feet from evil.

My son, give attention to my wisdom; let your ear be turned to my teaching:

Let water from your store and not that of others be your drink, and running water from your fountain.

Let not your springs be flowing in the streets, or your streams of water in the open places.

Let them be for yourself only, not for other men with you.

Let blessing be on your fountain; have joy in the wife of your early years.

As a loving hind and a gentle doe, let her breasts ever give you rapture; let your passion at all times be moved by her love.

Why let yourself, my son, go out of the way with a strange woman, and take another woman in your arms?

His mind is ever designing evil: he lets loose violent acts.

A false witness, breathing out untrue words, and one who lets loose violent acts among brothers.

Let not your heart's desire go after her fair body; let not her eyes take you prisoner.
